A ? for those of all religions?

Question

First,what religion are you?
Second,whats your stance on interracial marriages? Does it matter black/white, hispanic/chinease, or does your stance include all mixes?
Third,is this due to your religion or your own belief?

Answer 1

I belong to the Church of Christ. So there really is no "religion" other than we are just Christan. Interracial marriages are not frowned upon at all...we even have some members who's spouses are non believers..they are always welcomed if they chose to come to a function, and they are always pleasant.

Answer 2

Celtic Reconstructionist (neo-pagan)
I see absolutely nothing wrong with interracial marriages. There are several in my family and many in the area that I grew up in. My parents took in foster children when I was growing up---and we had many teenage girls whose parents beat them and threw them out of the house for dating other races. After my parents divorced, my father married a woman of another race. Race is simply not an issue to me--and it doesn't matter what racial paring occurs as long as it is consensual.

My views are based on the way that I was raised and the community that I was raised in. However, my religion doesn't have any issues with interracial relationships either. If it did, I would probably find a religion more compatible with my beliefs.

Answer 3

No religion, I'm a Humanist.

All consenting adults who are not already married should be free to enter into a marriage contract, if they choose. This includes interracial couples, couples following different faiths or moral philosophies, and same-sex couples.

I learned about fairness before I ever set foot in a church or knew there was such a thing as Humanism, but most, if not all, Humanists that I know feel as I do about interracial marriage.

Answer 4

First, I'm Wiccan.

Second, I have no problem with interracial marriage. I doubt I'd ever be in one, but that's because I LOVE blue eyes and find pale white guys VERY attractive. Which isn't to say that I don't know some VERY attractive African American, Hispanic, and Asian men, I'm just more attracted to pasty white guys with blue eyes (like my boyfriend).

Third, it's always been my personal belief, but Wicca is very big on live and let live, so it just falls in line with what I've always felt.

Answer 5

I am Wiccan.

My religion sees nothing wrong with interracial marriages, regardless of which races are involved. That also applies to my personal beliefs. But I'm white and attracted to white guys. Nothing wrong with that.

Answer 6

First Christian. Second, people are people regardless of their race so what difference does it make in marriage. Third, this is based on my Church up bringing, and on my personal beliefs...I have traveled the world several times and find people are people. I have friends all over the world.

Answer 7

I'm a pagan.
I believe in interracial marriages. Humans are humans and are all essentially of the same race.
I found interracial marriages acceptable before my current spiritual path. It just seemed to make sense to me.

Answer 8

1) Pagan, with strong Wiccan influence
2) It doesn't matter what race the partners in a marriage are, whether they're the same or different.
3) My own belief, but my religion doesn't proscribe inter-racial marriage, either.

Answer 9

Christian.
Inter-racial marriage is fine with me. I am a white girl, my husband is hispanic. Love should be color blind.
Its due to both. The Bible says not to be un-equally yolked. Some people believe that means race should not mix, but I believe it means religions should not mix. Its harder for a marriage to work, sometimes, between people of different religions. (I messed that on up too though, cause my hottie hispanc husband, is also an agnostic, LOL) Keep smiling!

Answer 10

Love has nothing to do with race or religion. I am a Buddhist of mixed race and my husband is an Atheist Canadian and we have been married 4 years.
