No one was born with any religion, everyone was Atheist at birth.

thomasonih: You need to sit with him and address the salient issues involved. What happens once the glams were off Can your friendship sustain it. In what religion what the children be raised. i cant think of any other one right now aside the above but would update later.

oraclefemi:

no matter how he pesters she should say no..i hope you're married otherwise when she comes here to say i am single and desperate on a new topic, you should be the first to comment. Religion has existed for so long and it is now that we are segregating ourselves and saying i can't do this with another human..does his religion make him evil? there are some terrible christians out there that will hide their characters and even your pastor will support the marriage ..then he starts showing his real self. fear go catch you. My eldest sister was actually in your shoes but she knew this guy as a friend for some years back and after many bad relationships with different christian guys whom my mom liked ...it never worked for her until this guy came from an old friend to the level that they fell in love..my mom went crazy( being a strong woman in rccg)she opposed it like a plague, even quoting the scriptures above but my sister was adamant and went ahead..got pregnant and had a kid for this muslim guy..now they are happy, the guy is really really nice and my mom now likes him but the deal they had was that she should allow her worship as a christian and not interfere which they agreed ...now they're so happy together and this guy even comes to camp with her and my mom..he says his prayers can get answered anywhere ....so poster don't allow some laws that were made without considering peoples emotions ruin your life !!

toria1980: Dear Nairalanders,

My ex proposes to me, i refuse his marriage proposal because he is a Muslim.
in his words he said "i wont stop you from practicing your religion". but i refuse him, for two years now he is still beginning me to marry him

Acidosis: Oh Lord Have Mercy!!

Okay, You dated a muslim, and He serviced you all through the relationship.

Now that he wants marriage, you answered NO.

Did you not think about your religion, while he was servicing you on the bed, while you were exchanging blood, water and feelings? Did your religion support all that? ?

Stop deceiving yourself woman, religion can't work for you, church is not meant for you.

So just go and marry him, stop this religious trash..

mandat81: the christian calls the muslim unbeliever and the muslim calls christian unbeliever, abeg make una tell me na who come be the believer then? cos it seems like we dont even knw who d believer is. CHAI!

De-best:
Hi everyone, I want start, by thanking all of you, who have made your various invaluable contributions, toward the question (poser), toria1980 has asked here. You have all spoken well. In fact, my heart goes to all of you (more especially, to afam4eva; chrisbenogor; Deen4me; dasparrow; salt1; Theblessed; juce and aryzgreat). These guys, spoke eloquently. From, what I read, some persons castigated toria1980, for dating the guy, for 2 good yrs, before separating from him. Let me say here, that, no matter how far, you have gone on a wrong way, the very moment, it occurs to you that, you are on a wrong way, please retrace your steps. It's never to late, to make corrections. Now, concerning the subject matter, I want to let us know that, "MARRIAGE IS A VERY SACRED UNION"; and requires an agreement primarily, by the 2 persons concerned and even family members, in some cases. That's why, one has to be very careful, when making decisions, concerning marriage. The BIBLE, in Amos 3 vs 3, says, CAN TWO WALK TOGETHER, EXCEPT THEY AGREE? Obviously no. And 2Corinthians 6 vs 15-16, says, DO NOT BE UNEQUALLY YOKED TOGETHER, WITH UNBELIEVERS. The BIBLE gave the above advice, because the All-knowing God, wants us (you and me) to be aware that, such circumstances may come up, sometimes in our lives. Wait a minute. Why won't the guy, leave toria1980 alone, after 8 yrs of separation? He can't tell me, it is LOVE, that is making him to come back. Is toria1980 holding the key, to his destiny? If so, then he should convert to CHRISTIANITY. Otherwise, I am, beginning to think, he has a "HIDDEN AGENDA" toward toria1980. The BIBLE, in Philippians 4 vs 6, says, BE CAREFUL, FOR NOTHING. When reviewed critically, to BE CAREFUL, FOR NOTHING, means to BE CAREFUL, IN EVERYTHING WE DO. Those who said, "RELIGION SHOULD NOT SEPARATE LOVE", doesn't know what they are saying. Religion is a way of life. And whether you like it or not, "YOU ARE WHAT YOU BELIEVE". Don't forget that, THERE IS ANOTHER LIFE, AFTER THIS ONE. WHERE DO YOU WANT TO SPEND YOUR ETERNITY? The CHOICE is yours, to make. Based on the above, I want to advise that, toria1980 should succumb to pressure, to marry the guy; otherwise another ISHMAEL AND ISAAC, may be visiting NAIJA, in the shortest possible time. Bye for now and may the good Lord, BLESS ALL OF YOU (and me, too) RICHLY, in Jesus name (Amen).

natasha: So wat do u want us to tell you. Just remember in this day and age of boko haram, hmmmmmmm. Love is never enough.
A word is enough for the wise.

polosco: In my candid and Biblical opinion it shouldn't be considered because the two of you don't have the same mind and the same goal, because the visions are different, but the problem from the beginning is that you were doing religion thing, Christianity is not religion it is LIFE. You are no longer your own, you now belong to Jesus, Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. . For instance how can the two of you practice this: http://mymorningdew.com/worship-as-a-tool-for-spiritual-warfare/ if you belong to different faith? You shouldn't have been involved with him right from the beginning, you went on your own way or rather you had no part in the family of God yet, therefore you need to first of all go and give your life to Jesus and be born again then in preparing for Christ second coming you have to choose right by waiting for Him to lead you in your choice of marriage partner, because as many asare ledby Him are His children. God bless you!

toria1980: very well said
