My Relationship And My Religion by idmoore(m): 3:49pm On Oct 20, 2012
Goodevening,
I am 27, have been in a
relationship with a Lady i love so much
since 2003 and we are planning to get
married and our both parents knows about
our relationship and they do encourage us physically and spiritually, we are just
a fresh graduating students of part
time programme in a Lagos tertiary
institution.
I am from a muslim background and she
is from a devoted and humble christian home and my mother loves her for who
she is,recently since late last year i
developed the interest of going to
church and become a christian, so i
started going to church a white
garment church precisely and i really enjoyed my fellowship and worship in
the church.
Few weeks back my mothers suspected
that i do go to church and she asked
me with a frown face then i told her
that Yes am going to a church and am on my way right now for a fellowship,
she seized my bible instantly and i didnt
argue with her but i told her that am
going and that wont stop me to go to
where am going and i told her that bye-
bye.
By the time i came back from church she had told my dad and my dad
called me, want me to confirm to him where i
went to this morning i told him politely
that Yes! I want to church for a special
programme and he replied that he cannot
dictate my life for me as a man that he can only advice me on how to live my
life that i can either do Islam or
christianity religion but he told me
that it would have being more better if i
have being living on my own and i
thanked him but my mother wasnt really pleased with my dads opinion on
the issue. Two weeks later mother saw
my white garment in my room while i
was at work, she reported
the case to my dad and my dad told ask
me about the garment when i came and i told him that i own the garment and i
put it on in church for worship service.

He replied that he thinks we have
concluded this issue now and told him
Yes and he told my mother to leave me
alone but my mum disagrees with my dads opinion that she is not in support i
should become a christian that even if am married to
a Deckoness that i shouldnt become a
christian instead we should remain with
our background religion respectively, i
laughed it off and probabl she wouldnt
know the implication of married couple practicing different religion.

Now my problem is that how i can
covince her to allow me be a christian
and live a christian life cause i have been comfortable with the christianity religion and i enjoy it like that.
What do i do change her mind towards me? Pls i need your matured and eyperienced opinions

You're an adult. You don't need your mum's approval wink

Well...when you're living under your parents roof, they treat you anyhow and disregard your decision despite your age.

I would therefore suggest that you look for your own accommodation, so as to earn some respect from them.

Good luck.
