I think if the love is strong enough, it won't even matter. :)  |

By all means, it SHOULD work as long as both people are mature adults whom aren't fanatics. The topic might not come up much in discussion but religion shouldn't destroy a relationship. If anything, the purpose of religion is to help creat relationships, is it not? -  |

My wife believes in God and I don't. We get along good. I've known some Catholics that actually made the other person change their religion in order to marry them.  |

I think that if they can put their differences aside, and not be on each other about their religions it could work. Love IS the most powerful thing in the world I've heard lol.  |

I think as long as you 2 can respect each other which you should be able to in marriage anyway that everything should be fine. Sometimes if 2 people are Very very very firm believers in one thing it can cause problems  |

hmmm thats a hard one. i was methodist when i married my husband who is southern baptist. it wasnt hard to get used to going to a baptist church, and soon i enjoyed being in a baptist church more than the methodist church. i dont think i could be married to someone with differnt beliefs than me. well, as far as atheism or anything other than christianity goes. my belief is just that strong and i am very outspoken in person. it would be an ongoing battle if they tried to tell me i was wrong and force their beliefs on me. i dont mind other people believeing what they want, it their opinion, but i want it left at that.  |

The Bible says, "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?" (2 Cor 6:14) God bless you *LoveisAll*  |

I don't believe it should be a factor as long as the two can agree that it is not an issue.. When I met my fiancee I was going to The Kingdom Hall {Jehovahs Witness}, and he was raised Presbiterian. We have differences and stuff but it is not a big factor, or problem. I respect his religion and he respects mine. I will say this my family was Pentecostal, and I loved going to my grandparents church, but as I was growing up I had tried about every religion, even the satanic ones, and felt that the best place I landed was The Kingdom Hall..  |

I personally don't believe it should be an issue. Two people should be able to love each other for their personality and who they are, not just on their religion. Though, I know some people who are strong, avid Christians, and refuse to marry someone of a different religion. It all depends on if the two can respect each other.  |

It depends. I would marry someone who was a different religion than I, but that is because I am a very open minded person when it comes to that. I am the type of person who loves God with all my heart, prays every day, and tries to live my life as God would want me to, but I do not call myself anything other than "Christian" I think that the people who have been hard core into one church most of their lives might have a problem, because they may not be able to accept the differences their partner believes. Whatever works for them, I guess  |
