would you marry a person a different religion than yours ?

Question

My mother is Catholic
My father is Muslim
They are still very much in love after22 yrs

Answer 1

Of course. My aunt is catholic and has been happily married to a muslim for almost 25 years now.

Whenever two people of different cultures come together there will be more issues but the relationship can be far more rewarding and enriching than marrying someone from the same hometown.

I am married to an indonesian muslim and I feel that my life experiences and understanding of others have been so enriched by our differences.
Culture is far more of a difference than religion. And whoever you marry, there will always be some differences to overcome.

Answer 2

If they could accept my feelings on religion,then of course. Of course it also has to be a situation where their belief in whatever religion does not impact my life in any major tangible ways,I'm not going to change my entire diet for example,or have my sex life destroyed by a mate whos religious upbringing has made her borderline frigid. But if we can work together and at least agree to accept the others ways,I'm an agnostic so while I may consider most religion to be one step up from silly superstition I can work with most anybody. I think the hardest would be Muslim if they were a strict adherent but if she can accept my eating copious amounts of pork in front of her,I'm sure I can make concessions,lol but I don't see that happening since Muslims are as a rule so separatist in their ways. In other words how many people can put their beliefs in check in order to get along with a mate of a different religion,I would guess it's a minority whether the answerers to this will admit it or not.

Answer 3

I would marry of a different religion as love knows no boundaries.. I cant guarantee by marrying someone of the same religion will make me happy.. so why not

Answer 4

That is very good for your parents to be married for 22 years, especially since they are so opposite. Yes, I do feel that people can have a successful marriage whn they have different religions.

Answer 5

Religion is a belief system and should have no bearing on whom you have feelings for. I think that any religion that would look down on a person for marrying someone in a faith other than theirs is very narrow-minded and should be watched for signs of being a cult. When your religion demands your obedience blindly, there is reason to be concerned.

So, yes. I would marry someone out of my religion were it to be so.

Answer 6

Better if it's the same yoke, yes I would, perhaps in time she would see the and know the truth, I also feel we don't need a religion to know God, it's a personal relationship.

Answer 7

Sometimes it works out beautifully, it depends on the people.

2Cr 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

I Cr 13;8a, Love never fails!!!!!

Answer 8

that's an exceedingly perplexing mission.. obviously my first step might want to be convincing my mom and father.when you're speaking about mission mainly,properly then certain i might want to pay interest to them and can want to also convince them in regardless of way i will like through which includes a number of my maximum depended on acquaintances and others and telling their reviews to my mom and father.might want to ask them to satisfy the fellow in personal and and then elect no matter if I might want to leave him or no longer.. mom and father are awareness,mature and regardless of will imagine might want to be in our income in hardship-free words yet you word,to some volume even mom and father also compromise even as it consists of love Marriages that's because they understand even as that's a love marriage,it would not continuously propose that the different man or woman might want to be from a similar caste or community and that's unlike continuously you fall for that man or woman who belong on your prolonged kinfolk.Love marriages do not comprise any form of 'caste assure' so thinking this,i wager mom and father might want to offer that a lot liberty.they are going to comprehend and and can want to offer a 2d concept.. ~Smile :)

Answer 9

I don't see why not as long as you have some common ground, and keep it out of the relationship. Neither of your parents are that devout are they? because if they were they wouldn't have gotten married. If your father was a true follower of Islam then he wouldn't have married a woman outside of his faith.

Answer 10

I would rather not...because sooner or later one person has to give up her religion for the other..coz if your partner is going to a different church and you also are attending another church...where will your child go....? what religion will he follow? If he chooses to go to his mom's church, wouldn't he feel jealous that the kids going there go with their families?
I feel that it's just hard not only for the child but also for the family.....Maybe it worked out in your family because they respect each other's religion....Ü
