Your spouse asking you to go to church or mosque, or what he/she believe. But you have a different faith with him/her. How do you answer this? Do you accept or reject it? If you accept, why? If you reject, why do you reject it?

I will not reject it. I will want to learn about his religion too, not that i want to convert, but i love him and i will want to get to know what he believes in - I can never be hard headed and just only think about myself... If i love a person, loving everything that he loves is part of the deal. It won't hurt if i go with him, and give him my support and at least he knows that i am also trying to understand his religion... I will decide later on if i will follow him or stay grounded with my belief.

I would probably accept the invitation. She's just asking me to accompany her there. Though I'd just be observing things and of course, I'd be asking her questions afterwards. I might probably ask her to accompany me to our church as well and she might do the same that I did. She's not asking me to change my faith after all. I wouldn't do that to her as well.

i think i will accept it but it doesnt mean that you will change your religion to0. by accepting her invitation, that is a sign of showing respect to her faith. go with her and observe. if your faith is strong enough, then youd not change your religion, she must accept your decision to0.. it all a matter of taking and receiving.

if you don't feel right about going, then politely tell him that it's not in your religion and that although you love him you would pass on going with him. if you have a different faith than you should go with your gut and if that gut says don't go, don't go. you can be respectful in how you tell him no, but tell him no one way or another. God bless

I think you should go and visit and tell them you don't believe in it, you won't change your beliefs but you will be supportive and go with them. this is the only reason you'll ever find me in a church!

Well, i think i'll go with him if my religion doesn't forbid me this. You can just go with her, like going to the theater or go shopping with her. It's ok if she just needs your companion instead of trying to change your face, so why not?
