A persons religion isn't the probem, it is their (in)tolerence towards your own beliefs that is the breaker.

Went out with a Jehovas Witness girl a few years back, at least once a week she would try and convert me. I learned to be more picky.

I don't think that I could live with someone who pretended to respect my beliefs. It isn't real respect, because it is so diametrically opposed to their own. They can't possibly respect beliefs that they feel are ridiculous. So it is only, at best, a quiet looking down the nose at my beliefs as opposed to respect.

Besides, why do we have to respect beliefs? They are only due respect if they can show that they are a valid representation of reality.

No one would respect "elvis is alive" beliefs, or "the holocause never happened" beliefs.

Why respect the god belief if it can't show any validity either? Especially when they don't respect the opinion of those who don't espouse positive belief as they do.

So no, I wouldn't do it. I don't want to be judged forever by my mate.

Religion is not connected with love.If two ppl like each other religion do not have to be a problem.Love is al about love,gens,like,feelings and religion is not there.Everyone is free to belive in everything he like.The problem comes mostly from the family behaind them.

I am religious to a degree. yes I believe in god but I also believe in some of the old world religions where the essence of life is pure from beginning to end. it's like being an Irish spiritualist.

I don't mind if I were to date someone with a different religion to me. the key thing is respect for each other's religions and beliefs and not to FORCE an opinion or religion on ANY one person. if that person wishes to subscribe to your religious beliefs, let him / her ask those questions and make a decision on their own.

I attend church. not as a member of the congregation but as an organist and uilleann piper. I attend holy communion and blessings but the way my mind works is more on the energies side of things and freedom and peace within a world. so that I can feel free and human. woof woof woof. stop it lol

anyway as long as everyone respects themselves and those they are close to and work with, those they are in relationships and family linked. the world is on a better plane.

mad of me to say it but hey it's how I feel.

equality, freedom and love make a world stronger.
