You aren't supposed to. But if all goes well with my BF (I really hope it does) then I will be marrying a non-christian. Us christians would not want anyone to accept Jesus as their lord and savior just to "get the girl" (or guy). But yeah, in marriage it can create some problems because they will view things differently. But I think that it is possible to work through those.

No it doesnt because God is not making you choose someone to spend the rest of your life with when that person isnt your true love.God made this world go round. If it is something against God then maybe youu are making the wrong decision though.If you cant convert that person reconsider what he/she will do for you in the long run

The Catholic Church allows marriage between Catholics and non-Catholics.
Because the Church recognizes the tremendous challenge that the interfaith couple will face, they may have to get permission from the bishop.
With love in Christ.

I don't think so. I know several married couples where one or the other doesn't go to church with the rest of the family. As long as they're married in a church, there shouldn't be a problem with it, as long as the couple is comfortable with the set up.

No, you marry who you love. But it does give the
relationship of marriage a stronger bond.
You'll worship together.
Have the same reference book, "the Bible" on many
family problems. To include raising children.

I doubt it, my aunts cousin who is Christain married a Jewish woman. I'm Christian and currently dating a Satanist and no one's complaining *Shrugs* I doubt it. You may not be together in the eyes of God but by law you are together no matter what your religon.

no not at all - although christians are meant to conduct their life in a way that makes no christians want to change.
but there is no law that says you cannot marry the person that you love.

it does not strictly PROHIBIT it, but it strongly, strongly, STRONGLY advises against it becuase it is easier for the non-christian to pull the christian down to their level than for the christian to pull the non-christian up to their's. it does say in the Bible to bot be "unequally yoked"

It doesn't prohibit it but it does say Christians shouldn't be unequally yoked with unbelievers.
