NT: would you convert to another religion to marry your fiance?

I'd think of it this way: So you could love someone more than anyone on the planet but because they weren't raised with the same religious beliefs you'd let them go?
good point, and i said pretty the same thing to myself when i made the decision to convert.

thing is, i'm guessing some people would argue that their religion > that particular person. they probably view converting as an affront to their ownreligious beliefs, and rest their hopes on finding someone who shares their religion.

with what?
with switching? or religion in general?
well if i understand correctly you said your not religious. so you'd just join her religion just to make her happy?
 
i don't believe in religion. spirituality, yes, but like the lovely Daytona said, religion does nothing but divide.
 
i knew a white dude who converted to islam just to marry his fiance...
i did the photography at the wedding & reception, and I could tell he couldn't be happier

but me, i personally would never change my religion for any female, she'd have to change to mine

I'm an open person.

If there's something to be learned from that religion and I somehow see that light, than anything's possible.

But as my head is right now... there'd be no reason to convert to anything.

I wouldn't expect her to anyways.

Tell that to her husband....

im an atheist, but if the love of my life wants me to be christian or whatever, i would tell her yes, however, i would fake it.
 
Yea. Like dirty said, Im not religious. So id just go along with it convert and get married,but not really doing all the rituals.
 
no i wouldn't convert because religion is an important part of my family and reputation within my extremely large extended family. many of my cousins whohave married have had girls/guys convert for them.

op...wuts ur religion and the girls? and are u religious?
 
I wouldn't stop believing in God or Jesus for anyone. I wouldn't mix with an non believer either. Nothing but problems.
 
It's just gonna go all bad from there. Our family is Buddhist but lightweight status not fundamentalist. My cousin got two kids with a white/filipina chick& she always wants to raise the kids Catholic. She's already taking them to church every Sunday & brainwashing them.

So you'd live your whole life as a lie just cause someone who says they love you doesn't love you the way you are? Come on Now

& to answer No I would not convert. Me & my last girlfriend broke up because I wouldnt believe in jesus, let alone god. And after that I am reallysuspect about getting in relationships with girls who have religion. I have to see how open minded they are.

Nah g it wasn't worth it to me. I have to wake up every morning and become something I'm not. I havent met poontang that good yet where it couldcounteract me hating myself.
 
I just had this conversation with my girl. I'm Muslim and she's Catholic. She knows I'm not converting, and she says she wouldn't either. Wedecided when its time for kids, to tech the kids both religions like how my parent did for me. I know though if it came down to her converting her religion tobe with me she would but that's not something I want to force on her nor would I ever. Honestly I like the idea of couples both with different religions.You can learn from each other and go beyond the stereotype of both religions.

short answer: yes.

i dont give a crap about religion. its absurd and magical. i dont believe in magic or the supernatural. im not bothered by lying for a greater good. iwont have a problem with that at all. as long as my signicant other cares for me, i will do the same for her. its like playing along with a kid who believesin santa. sure ill believe in santa as long as the kid behaves.

just cause someone who says they love you doesn't love you the way you are?

she won't love me because im christian or a jew, guaranteed. she will love me based on how i treat her.
