If my partner was deeply involved with their religion, I'd adapt to theirs, and on the off chance that I had kids (as of right now I don't want children), I'd raise them that way. My religion holds no special meaning for me, so I wouldn't be so sad to part with it.

Even if you stay with your own religion, adaptions will need to be made. Even if those adaptions are just "agree to disagree."
My partner is an ex-evangelical Christian who now considers himself a Christian sympathiser. He does believe in God. I'm a Western Taoist, non-deitied, season based Pagan. It'd be nice if there was a shorter way of describing that. Our daughter will be given a comprehensive religious education. It's important to us that she is educated about religion; not only what they are about, but also why people need (or say they don't need) it. Whether she ends up subscribing to one is her business, not ours.

Actually I'm 14 and I'm very confused about these religion stuff... My parents are Muslims but I dunno which religion to believe... Or whether to believe something or not... But I guess I should believe in something 'cause there just HAS to be someone or something that created all those things we see around, eh??? But right now, I'm a Muslim because of my parents and I also feel kinda close to Islam too... But it can change. Anyways, I wouldn't change my religion. I would of course let him celebrate their holidays and stuff and do the things we're supposed to do... But definetly not worshipping. I would like him to show respect to my beliefs too and also help me celebrate our holidays etc. and support me as much as I support him. We should also let our children believe whatever they want to believe, they shouldn't be confused because of their parents religious differences.

As an atheist, I'd stay.
If the other person really adhered to their religion, I'd help celebrate/observe holidays with them, but out of respect and not worship.

I'm not joining any religion. I don't care if my partner goes to church, but I'm not going.
