By being accepting that we each have different beliefs and that no one belief is above any other, it is very simple to get along with people from all walks of life. Accepting people for who they are regardless of whether or not you agree with their beliefs will allow you the opportunity to experience many different and wonderful cultures and relgions. If you do decide to venture into discussing your differing religions, please remember to keep an open mind. You might be amazed what you learn. :)

Why not? I'm Muslim and I have two great Christian friends, one of them was my friend since we were 6 years old
And I know a lot of couples who are from different religion and they have been together for years
I live in Jordan, Muslims and Christians are living together, the are friends and they are great couples, I grew up in a Catholic school.
All we do is avoid arguing about religion, we celebrate each others occasions, we celebrate Christmas and they celebrate Eid. it can be easily done because we all grew up together and we do not have any bad intentions at all.

By respecting each others belief's and their right to hold those belief's. This is the only way and if the whole world could learn this this would be a much better world.

It works just fine I have several friends from different religions and some are very religious. We don't discuss religion and we respect eachother enough to permit required practices without comment. We focus on our similarities rather than differences. It doesn't work if one of both of you is a jerk.

Talk about things you have in common. If you talk about "religion" promote things and teaching they have in common.
Above all, be considerate and compassionate and forgive anything you might consider an offence! None of us is perfect.

tolerance is the key word to surviving any communication / personel skills - the more tolerance you have for other ways of doing things the less stressful your life - but this does not come easily - for me - it took over a year working shoulder to shoulder with a guy before I could accept his way of doing things - sure I bit my tongue several times - but you can learn to accept others view points without actually agreeing with them - after this you can learn to comprimise - wait until you meet people who can't comprimise - that's frustrating.

Open mindedness
Patience
Acceptance that all peoples have stories and wisdom to share
Realization that all people have dreams, goals, issues of faith, and a desire to see the world be a better place

Easy. Just be respectful. If you can't be respectful, just put religion on the "things not to talk about" list.
