is it right to follow my fiance to her church

If he had brought her into his own church then wouldn't her family be asking this same question about her? Is it right yes it is. It is his choice, to find out what matters to him, is the church very different than his own, enough that he finds that he gains more by going to her church? Is it that the two church's are very similiar and that when it comes down to which church they go to it matters to her more than it does to him? If so then maybe it means they will both look at issues find out when something is more significant to the other and show caring and a willingness to compromise. My cousin was raised catholic, his wife is episcopalian, he had gone to church every week faithfully, despite the many problems in his life, and the media attention that some areas of the church were not right. He was married in her church. Often the marriage is the bride's special day. So those things that are more important to her will be considered. Does it mean they are any less married in the eyes of God? Both church's are similiar enough, to be of the same origins, which is they both originated from the teachings of Christ and the apositles, some will say yes it makes a huge difference if they were married one or the other. But why? He has not stopped believing in God, nor has she.

Why do you think it should automatically be the woman who gives up her own church when they get married? If such a sacrifice were going to happen, either partner should make it. Maybe there's some other area of the relationship where she's making a sacrifice, and him leaving his church is the way of compromising. My husband and I are two different religions altogether, and we both try to be part of each other's religious lives. What we celebrate on what holiday, or what services we go to all depends on who it's more important to at the time. I don't see why it should be any different for people of the same basic religion who started out with two different churches.

I think you can marrie in both churchs. However if not someone have to do it and there's only one God either you pray in one way or another, He listen any prayer and religion, as long as the goal is to professe the good.

Yes i must agree with that, the man should decide. However, if the woman's church proves to be more correct in teachings and in doctrine, we must reconsider and set aside pride to attain a better understanding. Have a nice day.

God my friend does not care where you worship him he only cares THAT you worship him!If he is happy and his wife is happy let it be!

G-d does care which religion you follow...are you a Jew or a Gentile? "A house divided amongst itself cannot stand'" I WAS married to a Mormon while I was Catholic. We agreed to raise the children in both religions, but it seems as if we were catering to HIS more than MINE. It got to the point where I stopped arguing about where the tithing money should go. I could understand 10% of his earnings to one church, but not to 2. I wasn't working. He said we could do it for both, equalling 20% of his paycheck. Why couldn't 50% go to his and 50% go to mine? It didn't work that way. Plus the Mormon church is so nit picky that they keep records of EVERYTHING. Then, I divorced him and later met my current hubby. He's Jewish. I converted. My children converted. Since then, there are things that happen that I still don't like, but that's because I am a grumbler by nature. (I'm REALLY trying to stop that, honestly. L-rd help me!). Since then, holidays and my life has been much simpler. Yeah, the first year Thanksgiving dinner was a disaster at my mother's house. She knew we don't eat pork, yet she baked with bacon and saugsage. Being that hubby and I are under the same faith, I understand why we go to church on Friday and Saturday, why we don't do anything fun on those days because that's our Sabbath. He understands why I'll be pounding away at the keyboards while I'm writing out some research article. I find it much easier to be of the same faith and I strongly suggest it. ~Jael

I don't think a person should change their faith simply because they are marring someone of another faith. If they studied the other persons faith and believed that the faith was right then yes the person should change their faith not because of another person wants or needs them to. I don't believe it is the womens responsibility to change to the mans religion. They both should talk about it when they have a time to be alone together. Then make a decision that is fair to both people.
