There are a lot of problems recentally with this boy I just started going out with his dad does not like my religion and my mom does not like his religion and she does not like him at all but it seems like we were just made for each other. What should I do? Should I keep going out with him?

I suggest you go with your feelings. Your families have an influence in your decision but they are not the ones that have feelings for you BF. You said you just met him, give him some time to see how you guys click. You wouldnt want to disrespect your family over a boy who is not completely made for you. Feelings race at the beginning of ANY relationship. Make sure that those feelings persist for a while before you go shunning your parents.

Believe it or not, parents are not always right. Having said that, they usually should be listened to. It sounds like you just started dating and that serious conversatins with this new boy might not be happening yet... but have you and this boy talked about your religious differences? That is what is really more important. If the two of you agree then there is reason to keep going. If you are not sure if you agree or don't agree proceed with caution or stop seeing each other. Ultimately it is your decision what to do with your life but your parents do have your best interest in mind. They don't want to see you hurt. Good luck!

If your religions are what is causing the issue, it matters more how serious the two of you are about your faith. It doesn't matter what your parents think. But lets say someday you get married and have kids, what religion will you raise them? If religion isn't important to both of you then it doesn't matter, but if it is important to you then it will be the source of arguments. Think of how your choices today will effect your life 10 years from now.

remember the saying 'you don't only marry the individual..you marry the whole family.'
so it depends on how long you've been dating and how old you are.. if you are young then i say break it off and just be friends. if you are older and have been dating a long time then maybe take both families out together and TALK...keep the communication lines open and get input from both sides.
also think about if you have kids. are you going to raise them in your religion or his..?? is either one of you willing to change your religion..?

If u 2 get along, keep going. For thousands of years religion, family, etc. ALWAYS gets in the way of LOVE!!!

Remember Romeo and Juliet,There can be differences if you are willing to accept them.You, not someone else.Religion is
personal.You can go to your Church and he can go to his.Love
is what conquers all. I am Non-Denominational.Because I am
a Believer in Jesus,the Lord,our Almighty God.But,I don't
see point in arguing about who's who ,like Baptist vs.Methodist.
etc....Follow your heart in this matter.Love brings changes.

you should tell your parents to get to know him better to see his character the way he is and all that and you should see how things work out between you two.
