Do you plan on having children? What beliefs are you going to raise them up with? Will he want his children to speak in tongues? Are you going to teach your kids about your idea of the rapture? I am a Jehovah's witness and we are taught to teach our children about the bible when we lie down when we get up and basically all the time. My husband and his family share my beliefs as well and I never have to worry about him teaching our kids false teachings. If you both plan on maintaining your current differing faiths it WILL put a strain on things. I am not going to say No it won't work or Yes it will. But, I have a good friend who is married to a non-Witness and that particular aspect has been a HUGE struggle in their marriage not merely from differing beliefs from her husband but from her in-laws as well who are not JW's and are very nasty to her. I can tell you for an almost  certainty you won't have that problem from his family but how will you family treat him?I don't know if your boyfriend is a baptised JW or not or if he really was brought up to have an accurate understanding of the Bible as taught by us. But, I do know that there are some things about the pentecostal beliefs that he may seriously disagree with if you really practice your faith. Really, I recommend you both sit down and seriously discuss your religious differences if you are both going to stay together. \nBut just in case you didn't know... We are Christians. Someone above stated we are not Christains I would just like to set the record straight.\n\n  Yeah and Everything Heatherloves... said below--Well put Sister!

No, I would still marry them, because each person can have their own beliefs, and not have it interrupt the marriage at all. Religion is something that brings people together, not takes them apart. Besides if the love is true then they respect each others religion, so it would not be a big deal

no, i don't think it's ok. i'm a Christian too, and i have made a list of my standards and what i want in my guy, u should make one too! but like u said, ur not gonna marry him ever and do u think he wants u to date him jus cuz ur bored? also u said u don't want to get sidetracked from God, that's why u wouldn't marry him(or another non-Christian) so what, he's not gonna sidetrack u jus cuz ur dating him? i think he would sidetrack u! and u r only 15, u still have plenty of time to date and find the right (Chritian) one!\n but also think about this, if this guy is so great, what is the guy that God has for u gonna b like? he's going to b even BETTER!!! so keep holding out for the right guy! good luck!

Of course they are not married. Furthermore they must have committed INCEST. Otherwise HOW could they multiply?\n\nI wonder why the Almighty God overlooked this. \nIf Almighty God is really smart, then he should have created a minimum of 2 couples.

It does not make sense for a Muslim to marry a Christian or for a christian to marry a Muslim unless they weren't really serious about their  religion.  I am Catholic and I feel very strongly about my ideals.  There is no way I would marry a Muslim because as it says in one of the gospels, we would be "unevenly yoked" and arguing about religion all the time.  I mean, what would we teach our kids?  Both religions?  And which one would I tell him is the truth?  Mine or his father's.  It is better to find someone who feels the same way you do on matters that are close to your heart so you can work as a team.

I have always thought that was an absurd thing myself.  How can an innocent child be damned like that?  Personally, I did not have my child baptized.  I have taught her to be open minded and if SHE wants to explore getting baptized into a religion of HER choice, she can do that when SHE deems to.

No, I don't think they will get married...maybe you've got a chance, Who knows? I think her Dad tries to run her life though...I feel sorry for whoever does marry her.

Ease up a bit.  They're 18, maybe 19 years old.  Were you not born into a religion?

I got married in the Catholic church and I don't believe in any of their bull.  Since you're an atheist I wouldn't worry about it.  Just get married in the church it will keep peace in the family and you won't have to listen to his mom complain about it for the next 30 years and trust me, if she's like my MIL, she will.  I've been married 13 years and she's still complaining about the lack of limos, like anyone cares.  Did your fiance go to catholic school?  If he did you might need to get married in the church just so he feels married.  That's why we got married in the church, residual guilt from the 12 years of programming.\n\nAlternatively you and your hunny could do the outdoor thing by yourselves and then do the church thing after.  Don't even tell anyone about the outdoor thing, that way you both get what you want and hey, you can wear the gown twice.  Good luck.\n\nYou could also have your outdoor ceremony on your honeymoon.  I think it would be nice to have your own ceremony with just the two of you and officiant  before or after the church thing.

A brick through her parents bedroom window with the message  "I wanna marry your daughter! From, the guy across the street" ought to do the trick. Good luck man, let us know how it goes.

Me. It does work. We are totally compatible politically - he's a liberal democrat Christian, I'm a slightly conservative democrat atheist. (Blows the lid off the 'only republicans are Christians' argument!) We love the same movies, books, TV shows... What amazes me is the sheer number of people who answered your last question that simply have no idea what they're talking about. We have a Christmas tree - in fact, I decorate it. With angels and all kinds of things. I incorporate all our beliefs into the holidays. His mom is against the wedding (which we agreed to have done by a justice of the peace) and, although she likes me, she doesn't like the idea of her son being "unequally yolked". He himself has said to me that he's unsure about where I'll "end up", but he doesn't dwell on it. As for kids - we agree the best thing is to let them find out what they want to believe on their own. To keep this from getting too long, you can email me with any specific questions you might have. I write a bit myself, and would be more than happy to help you!

It could be that the person they are planning to marry may be of another religion.  Such as catholics are only supposed to marry catholics.  It could also be that they had a bad experience with their prior religion and looked into different religions and found one they felt was more "in tune" with their personal beliefs.
