Lol..Not everyone follows their religion to an extreme degree, which is very smart and good...

The question should be, "Why are christians of different denomination not getting married?"

Can you marry a Presbyterian? Can you marry a Jehovah Witness?

It's so shocking to hear christians say =»"personally I wouldn't marry someone of a different denomination, because when you really start thinking about it, in most cases, your beliefs are going to be somewhat (sometimes even drastically) different.."

Funny Religion..

BetterHalf:
Sometimes, I wonder if religion is a good thing... the situation seems worse with Christianity as you've pointed out.
This dilemma in my view, is because all religion claim to be the "good one" while any other is "the opposite" which is a shame, really.
But my questions is still more about inter-faith marriages and the real-life challenges and the consequent realities it poses.

herbie27:
Not too advisable, you both will obviously bring diverse and conflicting religious beliefs to the table.
Can only marry a christian.

Synzu:
2nd Corinthians 6:14.

primy:
it's not advisable, the marriage is bound to be filled with choas due to the religion difference..... and how will the children brought up look like? which religion will they belong to?...... I don't really think it's a wise decision.

ALAGA1:


Religion has not done any harm...But people do harm under the name of religion..

Anything that can be used for good can be abused for evil..One of the consistent perversities of human nature is to find ways to corrupt just about anything and make it destructive..

I am not a Christian so I am not really concerned about the religious technicalities but the social and inter religious issues that will surface. There are two people, two families and extended families. It will be a big issue if not now but later on.

It is hard enough for a couple to remain married without religious traditions/rituals/beliefs etc. Then there are the children's faith..Who will they follow?

So it depends on the degree of religiosity on both sides that will confound and upset the union. Family members will interfere with your decisions if they are more traditional or fundamentalist.

Trust me, growing up with a muslim dad and a Christian mum is not a funny experience..

I can relate well to it..

BetterHalf:
Wow, you've got first hand experience on the matter, I respect that.
My bit about religion is the inherent condition of sticking with people of your own faith. Like the bible quote above, I've listened to pastors preach it to ridiculous extents in the line of; light vs darkness, heaven-bound vs hell-bound etc religion does not really help "unity" in this sense.

That quote is about idolatry. [s]Muslims believe in God same as Christians.....[/s]

I'm sorry, but I'm gonna have to cancel this...



You are terribly wrong. Muslims do not believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ.

At the risk of appearing extremist, I'll also have you know that I am NOT a conservative christian. I'm only stating crystal facts according to your initial post and upon the basis of assumption that you yourself are "christian".

queencalipso:

You sound more like your mind has been made up, you only looking for people to agree with you.
My dear! Do what ever pleases you but don't think about your self alone, think about latter and the kids.

Divided within itself.

Since we are pointing fingers, why do Sunni muslims hate Shia Muslims? Why do they treat them like lesser beings?

Why do Sunnis rejoice when Shias are being maltreated or killed?

Sunni Muslims justified the attack by the Army on Shias in December in Nigeria?

Iran hates Saudi Arabia 'cause of denominational differences.

Christians might have differences but they don't kill each other or justify reasons to cause harm on themselves.

An attack on one Christian is felt by Christendom.

Why do you Muslims have different days for your religious celebrations; Sallah for example? One day for Yorubas, the other for Hausas. Need I go on?

Brother pls don't choke smelling mouth for everything pls

Christian isn't divided like you people think,we are just experiencing hardship from unbelievers majorly the so called atheists creating new denominations just to turn the reli.geon upside down.

Any reasonable christian knows Jehovah witness isn't a church,they are just bunch of hungry preachers pls.They don't even attend service on sundays or saturdays which is against our Holy Bible,we have couple of christians marrying from different denominations so far they both believe in the existence of JESUS CHRIST so what else do you want again
And please what's the meaning of funny religeon?
Are we acting nollywood or bollywood there?

ALAGA1:




Are you trying to tell me that Atheists are the reason why some Christians viewed homosexuality Okay when it is an abomination to the Lord?..
And also why Jehovah's Witnesses do not believe Jesus was God (John 1:1) and they are the last 144,000 mentioned in Scripture..?
Tell me bro, atheists are the reason why Mormons believe they are the lost tribe of Israel?..


About the Jehovah witnesses, that would' ve been a good response, if only you provided solid evidence to your claims.

It is funny because I wonder, how is the Bible so misinterpreted different from so many scholars and people?

Been a while bruh....Where have you been?

Mediapace:
Pls we have no denomination that think homosexuality is OK ,NO PLS! Not even jehovah witness.
No one practice that in christianity in this country except if another form of Mad men and women woke up to create a new denomination yesterday


Anyform of denomination that doesn't believe in the existence of christ doesn't have anything to do with christ ian
[s]Probably because you lived in the barrack[/s] where they don't have christlike churches there,they will just build one yeye church and that's all

bolabolabo:
to start with, I am a product of such marriage. I got to understand the similarities in the two religions.

My dad was the Muslim, my mum the Christian.

While I was in junior secondary school, I was a muslim but was doing CRK. I prayed 5times daily, I go for MSS meeting and still did CRK. FYI, I attended a government boarding school.

Also, it broaden your knowledge about religion.

As I speak with u, I am a confirm christian. tho my middle name will forever be a muslim name

Marrying from the other religion is a adventure to me. it allow u guys see what others dont see.

BetterHalf:
Thanks for your insight. Please, how was home like growing up?
Were all your siblings brought up as Muslims or was it optional?

OluwabuqqyYOLO:
It depends on the individuals but it really isn't advisable. Tolerance would be pushed to its limit and toes would eventually be stepped on.

BTW, it is 'Mature'.

bolabolabo:


it was optional.

I used to go to church with my mum on sundays and some times during the week and I go to arabic lesson every other day....

my dad had no issue with that....

That way, I had the right and knowledge to choose which religion I want...

As I am, I can quote a lot of surahs so also can I quote bible passages.

I see it as a blessing to be a product or inter religious marriage
