I can't believe the posts that I am reading!! You ask for help because you are "just teens."
I want you to trust me when I tell you that you have a lot of time before you need to make a life-long decision as to who the parent of your 14 children will be. If this guy is "the one," he will still be there when you have finished college at the old age of 24. He will also have finished graduate school and have a career that can support you as a stay-at-home, loving mom to those 14 children and his devoted wife.
In addition to the above, your religion IS very important. Which religion will you be raising those 14 children? This is an important point. Children need religious direction--are they going to be Muslim or Christian? This is a question that is way too important to make before you are even finished with high school--so how about agreeing to date each other and enjoying each others' company for now and making all of those other "heavy" decisions if y'all are still together after you have your bachelor's degrees?

Especially now that you are just teens, the steps are still long for you to take to marriage. Well, usually anyway. So if you can have a good relationship, go out for a burger and ice cream and help with homework, I think that would work OK, dont you think so. That way you both can talk about stuff that other people do not have the knowledge about and see what happens in the years ahead....

Well the first thing you need to ask your self is Do you have a problem with his religion? 2. Does he have a problem with yours? If your answer is no to both then yeah you can be together. It's about how you both feel not what other people think. And like you said you're just teens, so spend time together enjoy each others company and worry about it when you have to worry about it. It isn't like you guys are getting married right now. And in the future if that happens, many people convert to their spouses religion or they just compromise. Like if you were to have kids together, each of you could teach your children both religions. Your children would be twice blessed!

Are you Muslim or a Christian gal? Well, whichever, practice abstinence. Especially if you are Muslim, what if your parents were to find out that you went out , let alone slept, with a boy? In Islam, it's ok for males to marry the people of the book (Bible and Torah) because males usually don't convert to their wifes religion. It's not ok for a Muslim woman to marry a Christian man because she will abandon her beliefs and follow her husband. I'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing, but people shouldn't convert simply because they see someone else following a certain religion.

It can work out very well. Religiously, muslim women are not allowed to date christian men. Muslims are not allowed to date at all. Follow your heart. If you are in love with him, no matter what your religion is, things can work themselves out. I will pray that you are able to make a decision through Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Having different religions didn't stop my wife and I. Would your God object to two of his people overcoming their differences in order to live good, happy lives?
The real issue is not religion, but your age. Should you be focusing on other areas of your life? Also, you need to make sure that he is a good person. Just because he is from a different religion doesn't mean that he is a bad guy, but it doesn't mean he's a good guy either.
Be careful, and have fun!
