Would you convert religions for the one you love?

[Anonymous]

I know in many religions, one or the other has to convert in order to marry. Would you?

[SnowDrop16]

Well it depends how you raised I guess. I come from a pretty religious family and currently dating someone from different religion. My family already warned me that they won't give me their blessings if I convert to his religion or marry him without him converting to mine.

In my opinion, I don't want anyone to change anything to be with me unless they really want to, so same goes with me. I don't wanna convert on something I don't believe and I'm not gonna make my partner to convert too. So we just gonna roll with it :)

[Detemer]

I wouldn't.
Love and religion should not be mixed.
It would be great if I could be with the love of my life who belongs to a different religion while being free to choose what religion I want to practice.

[Vmm90]

I'm not a religious person and that's my choice. I don't see why people need to convert. I obviously am not against people doing it, it's their choice of course.

Marriage has become a bastardized practice at this point you shouldn't need a ceremony to be able to love someone it's just a way for your religion to get money out of you and if you don't do it they publicly humiliate you because your a dinner or some such nonsense

Peaceful worship is fine but organized religion is nothing more than a way for people in power to manipulate those who are loyal to do what they want

[HaveNoName]

First, religion generally gets passed to you through parents and hence, parents' teachings and upbringing. Now if that is not the case, you take up. a religion only if your heart agrees with it's teachings. You take religion to please God, not a potential spouse. Indeed, some religions do have rules about who you can marry. Still, religion should be taken up if you "feel" it.

[HaveNoName]

Thank you ma'am !! Stay well.

[Aizou]

I would not. True love would not require such a sacrifice.

[Fuselesss]

i wouldn't ask anyone to convert for me nor accept anyone to expect me to convert. i do not practice religion anyways but i find it unethical to ask someone to do that.

[Now22]

No. I would respect their religion but I wouldn't convert. Why convert to something you don't believe in and disrespect it.

[Asker]

So essentially you could never get married... what if marriage was inportant to them?

[Now22]

How could I never get married?

[Asker]

To them you couldn't. Judaism, Muslim etc have very strict rules on marrying someone of the same religion. Catholics require you to do some religious study but not actually convert.

[Now22]

Ohh. There's not much I can do about their opinion on it.

[Curtisisyodaddy]

What do you mean you don’t respect it you spoilt brat?

[Juxtapose]

"I'm suddenly going to change how I view reality itself just because this person I'm fu**ing doesn't agree with me!"

What nonsense. I'm an atheist by the way and would never change my mind without proper evidence.

[TripleAce]

the question can always be reversed that's the issue...
would your loved one allow you to just be who you are and still marry you?

[RuthAnn1781]

Fuck no. Besides, if that person loved me back they wouldn't want to change me like that

[Demiurge6]

No. Relationship has nothing to do with religion neither marriage. Can you love and be together without some ceremony and some cheap paper?

[fauchelevent]

Nope, I wouldn't do that unless they genuinely convinced me they were right.

[Alistayr]

I don't know how you could, it would be rather shallow.

[gGreat]

Nope. I wouldn't expect her to convert either. If she asked me to convert, I would break up with her.

[es20490446e]

Never. My ethic is to see things as they are, not as it would feel other people better.

[OctoPops]

I would rather ask and persuade her to stay away from all religions like me.

[X9MikeHoncho]

No, why change to something I don't believe? I would try to check it out though

[Crankor]

So be forced to do something that would start a lie... nope

[Bobthesecond]

I wouldn't denounce my god, i already had to go through that whole process once so im not going through it again

[mr_mike1]

You already denounced your god once?

[Bobthesecond]

Yea man

[rashu_malik]

Nope it's not a true love if there's has to be a deal

[crazyleolove]

Why do I or her convert religion if we love each other.

[Anonymous]

No a being religious in the first place is a complete deal breaker for me

[Belovedson]

So if I'm agnostic... Should i convert MY brain to be with my Love... i don't think so

[MaiNameIsSunshine]

No. Accept me as I am or move along.

[AzureGirl]

I personally wouldn't. I don't want a religion.

[TheFlak38]

No. She must convert to mine.

[DamnMan]

Nah. We just have to deal.

[clampfan101]

No. My SO much be Christian.

[Insanyx12]

No I have a personal religion

[Longshot1965]

I would not nor would I ask her to.

[MrZameer]

Noooooooooo. Never ever. Impossible.

[Tenesseegirl7778]

No not at all

[Curtisisyodaddy]

You should! You should covert to Islam

[JimRSmith]

Thanks, but no.

[DavidSchwartz]

No, that would mean cheating yourself.

[jacquesvol]

NO WAY, Faye!

[tartaarsaus]

No, absolutely not.

[cupidkisses]

No l wouldn't.

[Vikram29]

No , never
