I've been curious about this for a while. For those who practice a faith, whatever your faith is...if your significant other wanted you to convert to his/her own faith, would you do so to make him/her happy? Would you need time to think about it, to research the beliefs of said faith, or would you give him/her a straight up 'no'?

I have seen many people now a days changing religion for love.
They say, this is to unite their family in one faith and not to give confusion to their children later. well, it all depends on individual.
Personally I won't change my religion for love. Love should be unconditional.

This is all too true. Both people should respect each other for how they are and not tear each other down, even when it comes to faith. They should be charitable in explaining why they believe what they believe.

I would have to say not unless it was in my heart already to do so. I believe that what your faith is already is implanted in your heart and you need to follow that. Now if your love did not believe in the same thing as you then that could create a problem. So to alleviate that issue you should find someone that carries the same belief as you do. One thing that I think can happen often is that the other person has no belief. That maybe they are a non-believer and when they find their love then they adopt that way of thinking. It should already be there in a sense thow. Because its not healthy to be something all for someone else no matter what it is.

Good point. If I found someone of a different faith denomination, or even an entirely different religion, while I would be friends with them, I'd leave it at that. It would be too hard for me to be in a relationship simply because of all of the potential problems.

I would never change my beliefs for another person or government. This is what I am, and if they want to change what I believe then they were not worth being with in the first place. The Jehovah's witness do this same crap, and they even want you to get your family and friends to convert to the witness or they would not ever talk to you again. What the hell kind of bull are these dopers trying to pull. Nothing but cults would do this, so if anyone you know do this to you, run in the opposite direction.

lol You don't have to tell me twice. I had that experience in college, and trust me, I ran as far as I could to get away from it.

I would never change my religion for love or for anything in life.I am very attached to my religion and feel lucky to be born in such a religion so why should I change it.
People say that when some one is in love, brain does not work and they take all the actions with heart but religion is also connected to heart and very close to a person.

It's so funny how being in love will make you do all sorts of crazy things, but when it comes to faith, most of the time a person will stick to what he or she believes, even if a significant other thinks differently.

Both of my husbands were of a different religious faith than I am however because they loved me just as as I am they never even suggested that I change my faith. So I never had to think about it but if asked I would never change.

As all the main religions are aspects of spirituality, which is the real foundation, i cannot see why there should be a need.

If she really loves you she shouldn't ask you to do something like that.
I wouldn't love somebody who doesn't accept me for what i am.

I would never change my religion for love. The fact was, I had to reject the advances of a girl, in my young age, because she was from a different religion. I knew, that if I marry her, I would be disowned by my family. Even though she was one of the most beautiful girls, in our set, I had to reject her, because family bonds were more important than love.

In my case, no, I would never change because I believe in the truths of my religion. However, the other person may feel the same way about their religion, therefore I would never force them to change either. We are led to the truth by God, and it is up to him to guide us where we should be.

I have lots of friends whom are married with different religion but they do love and be with each other until now. I think that you don't have to change your belief for someone, it is yours and each of you must respect each other's belief, that is if you love each other then respect will follow.
