I wouldn't change. Why should I?
Neither should anyone. I'll explain my opinion.
If one member of the couple wants do go to the cinema and the other wants to go to a football match, every weekend, somewhere along the line they will argue because one won't go with the other. :flaw:
They don't compromisse, they won't at least try to go just to make the other happy.
They will say: you don't love bla bla bla bla....
My ex-girlfriend would sometimes tell me that she wanted to go to a bar with some friends and my answer was always: you should be there already.
I knew she enjoyed those places. I don't.
So, I didn't go to a place where I don't feel confortable and, althought I rather have her with me, I couldn't stop her from going wherever she liked.
And this is a religious aspect - respect for one's freedom.
So if you truly love someone, even if it's from a diferent religion, you won't even try to make him/her abandon their beliefs. I'd say that if you know that a person is happy with something that you are not fond of, you'll let her/him do whatever she/he wants.
And by the end of the day, you'll return to each other's arms and all will be alright.
(of course this won't aplly if your lover is a killer, or a pedo... that would be asking to much xd)
Conclusion:
Most people still can't truly understand the ones they love, so it's not even worth to talk about the ones we don't love.
PS.: I really don't want to marry. Never did. For me it doesn't make any sense. Why would I need? For God to bless me and to be happy? He blessed me the moment he created me. And He automaticly blesses everyone's relationships with this "thing" He gave us: LOVE. That is the true blessing, not the religious ceremony.

I don`t see where religion comes into a marriage..
unless they fight over the place where they wanna get married xd
i don't see either needing to change religion and there children are free to choose when they are old enough.

:shrug: If you can't stick to your belief system, then do you truly believe it? I'd find you hypocritical if you claim to be a devout believer and then simply change your belief system because the person you love believes something else.
It's like the person that "magically" seems to like everything you like... at first it seems awesome, but then they get in your pants and you find out that they don't like everything you like. They just lied to you for their own benefit xd

I will never change my religion because someone is asking me but yeah, if someone who I love very deeply and won't compromise with me, then at the minimum, I'll try to find someway to let her live with her own religion and live with mine as long as there's minimum decency and few interference from both us towards each other's religion. It's a tough one frankly for me. I just hope the situation doesn't come for me someday though there's a big chance that it does someday. For now, I'm in no relationship, so I'm fine...

^This^ If someone is that controlling religious wise, I would never have looked at them twice as a dating option anyway. If someone is religious, I will respect their opinion, and if we got married, then they can continue, whatever makes you happy, just, you have your thing, I have mine
