Why would someone discourage another person to marry another from a different religion? Why would they say you can't chose man over God? Now look at it from logical terms. Would you want to give up love for something that is based of uncertainties? Look at it from a scientific approach. Humans are all the same genetic concept except having few variations in the genes that makes each of us different from another. However our biological system is made up exact duplicate systems and geared to towards reproducing with each other. No matter, your race, skin color, beliefs, all humans are capable of reproducing with each other. This is how the nature f human genetics is geared towards. The process is natural. In animals, any animal can reproduce with their own kind and same goes for the plants. Now why would someone deny this natural process over a belief solely derived from spirituality? NOW DON"T GET ME WRONG, im not an atheist, I do believe in God, but to certain extents, I believe one cannot deny the right

love is love. its exists in EVERY religion. dont turn down the one you love over religion, neither person needs to convert, if the love is strong enough, it will respect the boundaries and ways of each person/religion. it shouldnt be this or that. it should be these. the relationship with your loved on and with your god.

A person's spiritual beliefs are often no uncertainties. Speaking as a christian, if I was "uncertain" about the whole thing, than I would not be a christian. Many people don't like to hear this, but this issue is addressed in the Bible when it says not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). I can't speak for other religions, but they may have similar beliefs. On a more practical level, marrying someone of a different religion is complicating on several levels. Religion influences culture, and sometimes two people can just be too incompatible. When children are born, they are confused and it may become an issue between parents as to how the child will be raised. Reality is, the more alike two people are, the more stable their relationship will be, especially when it comes to an important issue like religion. Most people marry and prefer someone of similar age, race, religion, and interests as themselves. Opposites may attract, but if you study any sociological evidence, people who are similar are much more likely to stay together

Reality is God is real. God isn't prejudice so why should we be. You should not be with someone because of their religion, sex, race or any other reason. Be with someone because you love them. If they are a certain religion that your not then do consider if you want to be the religion that they are or vice versa. If you marry a muslim that practices then you won't have very many rights as a woman. If you marry a mormon then they require you to be mormon to marry. If you are a certain religion and don't want to change then consider converting the one you love if they are willing and open to your beliefs. I am a Christian and before my husband and I were married he was a non practicing Baptist. He was willing to convert to being a Christian when we started dating. He's also of another race. So it all depends on the person. I HATE racism even if my husband wasn't another race and I HATE any other kind of prejudice but others do not believe the same. We are all the same on the inside and if we were all the same on the outside wouldn't that just make the world be so boring? I think so. I'd rather believe in God and do what he says (since what he asks of us will not harm us. It just makes us better people.) and find out when I die that he wasn't real than to not obey his word and die and find out that he is and burn for eternity in hell. No one can tell anyone who to be with. god doesn't why would we and he is the best example there is. The reason why not to choose man over God is because God created us, man didn't. He is our almighty father. He gives us the things we need and want. He watches over us. He loves us unconditionally no matter what we do as long as we believe in him. I hope that this helps you. There are so many people out there that are hateful and thats why they would try to prevent someone from being with another because of race, religion or any other reason.

I would not define what you are describing as spirituality, I would define it as mans' laws based on faulty interpretation of scriptures or whatever text this is gotten from. it is not spirituality versus reality. Reality is the here and now, as you say, we are all flesh and blood, we are all interconnected with one another and with the Almighty. People become mired in their beliefs at times and they try to sway others, this is also human nature. It sounds like you know the truth already. We are ALL one with the Father!!

If your religion is Christianity, the Bible states that a couple should be "equally yoked," meaning the same religious beliefs. Why? Because if a Christian dates a non Christian it will pull them away from God. Have you ever heard the term "You are who you surround yourself with?"

we are spiritual beings more than we are human beings.
every culture believes the spirit lives on...
so to connect with someone who matches your spiritual belief means a deeper connection than merely mating to keep the human strain alive.

I believe in genetics but I believe that GOD created it. I choose to believe in HIM and that he has all power and there is nothing or anyone that can shake my faith in GOD. PERIOD. I do not knock other's beliefs to each his own.
