Would you change your religious beliefs to marry the person that you love?

absolutely not,

i will never change anything about myself for another person, especially something so deeply apart of my essence such as my core principles & beliefs...

i respect & luv myself too much to ever do that, & if the other person actually luvs & respects me then they'll change their core principles & beliefs to be better compatible w/ mine...

i owe nothing to nobody ~
 
No. I don't have religious beliefs to change in the first place, but I take on religious beliefs for someone I love, because I value being honest. I may take them on if I change the conclusions I currently hold and they are able to convince me of their faith but I'm not going to lie to someone that I'm not an agnostic atheist for love falsely. But I'm highly doubtful that would happen, and to be honest I wouldn't value being in a relationship with a religious person to begin with. I've come across to many who use there beliefs as a drudgen anyways.
 
Amen.
I would not

First and foremost I am in a relationship with God. So if I had to change my faith and my principles for someone that can't accept them, then that means that person does not share the love of God. Which consequently means that person doesn't love me for who I am, so I could not love or marry that person.

I am saved by the grace of God. I am born again. I am a christian. I am staying as a christian. I should never have to change for anyone. I would only change for myself. I have my personal reasons why. No one should have to change there religion for anyone. Love is love. You can still love the other person too. I know many people that are married and they are both different religions and they never changed there religions for LOVE. You do not have to change for anyone. Just be yourself. Love one another. People can love who they want and when they want. Love is my religion. Like that Ziggy Marley song.




Lyrics
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
I'll take you to the temple tonight
All my days I've been searching
To find out what this life is worth
Through the books and bibles of time
I've made up my mind
I don't condemn, I don't convert
This is a calling have you heard
Bring all the lovers to the fold
'Cause no one is gonna lose their soul
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Hey, you can take it or leave it
And you don't have to believe it
I don't want to fight
Hey, let's go fly a kite
There's nothing that we can't cure
And I'll keep you in my arms for sure
So don't let nobody stop us
Free spirits have to soar
With you I share the gift
The gift that we now know, oh, oh, oh
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Hey, you can take it or leave it
And you don't have to believe it
Well I'm done searching now
I found out what this life is worth
Not in the books that I find
But by searching my mind
I don't condemn, I don't convert
This is the calling have you heard
Bring all the lovers to the fold
No one is gonna lose their soul
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Hey, you can take it or leave it
And you don't have to believe it
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Love is my religion
Hey, you can take it or leave it
Now that you believe


Sorry but very strange question.



I am me, myself. I, and all that and a bag of chips. LOL! My jokes!

Definitely not. I don't believe in any religious beliefs. If someone i am with has them thats fine. i will respect that but will not join in at all on it.
 
I could live with someone that worships other religions. Why ask for a change when you can choose to respect.

The issue arises when you planning to have children.
To be honest, I have no final thoughts on that.
I admit it can be complicated.
 
I would not change my beliefs for anyone and I would never make my partner change their beliefs either.
I believe that we all have our beliefs/religions and that is completely fine! If my partner believed in God and wanted me to go to church and praise God I’d maybe go every once in a while in support of his religion but I’d never want him to expect me to just put my beliefs aside to believe what he believes. We are all individuals.

Very well said! I think that most of the time, having a partner that differs from you in some ways (opinions, beliefs, etc.), is not a roadblock in a relationship, but a learning opportunity. 🙂

Nope. My atheism is part of who I am and I wouldn't change that for anyone much the same as I wouldn't give up my love of climbing.

Trust me, as soon as you grow up you’ll start using the gate at the swing park. Climbing the fence won’t be as appealing when you’re an adult.
