Inter-Religious Relationships - 01-04-2009, 07:04 PM

I looked but I didn't see a thread like this.

What is your opinion on inter Religious dating

I'm sorta in that particular situation myself too.

I'm a Christian, and she's a Wiccan. But I'm head over heels for her. What's your advice on how I should handle this situation.

Religious discussions are against the rules, so as long as this discussion focuses on how to date someone with different beliefs, and not on the merits of the beliefs itself, it will stay open.

Ya; we'll be watching this one like a hawk

as for the question; it really shouldn't come into it; i have alto of Pagan friends, and alot of Christian friends; although they don't always run in the same circles they do get on.

the main thing is that you respect each other's beliefs; if you do that without judgement, then i wish you the best of luck

Just don't get into any religious debates - I'm Wiccan too, and I know that she probably gets enough religion thrown at her already

Good luck and have fun ^^

as long as nobody preaches their religion to the other it shouldn't be a problem. i know you aren't married and probably no where near close but i have a friend her father is jewish and her mother is christian (preacher's kid) and it works the children have turned out rather eclectic each following his or her own (or none) belief

My mom is muslim, dad is orthodox... and they gave birth to me, an atheist.

Cool, huh?

In my country almost everyone is inter-religious related lol. Nobody cares. WHO THE HELL sees religion these days. Nowadays it's all about politic beliefs.

Being the stubborn atheist that I am, I find it hard to sustain a relationship with a religious partner. It might, however, work for more liberal people...

it depends *how* religious they are

I've had a couple of relationships with Christian guys before; each was different about how they practised their faith; but I'm a little more relaxed about how far they'd go; however; try to convert me or preach *at* me and I'll tear you a new one

i have two friends who have been together for over 4 years now; the girl is strict Christian and the guy is very atheist; however they LOVE to debate about how their differences of faith effects their outlook on things; it works for them, so again, if you're respectful, and can agree to disagree it shouldn't be a negative impact either
