Yes I know it's good to get a partner who aligns with same faith but aside that one has to look at personality of whom you're marrying.

She's Catholic and I'm not and she's a good lady. The condition she gave was that she can't leave her faith.

I've searched and she's the only one that ticked all the boxes aside the faith issue.

I got no choice

See wetin religion dey cause? All them Abraham and Moses no go through all these rubbish na we dey do ourselves.

She can't leave her faith? She's the only one? Ticked all the boxes? The signs are facing you now but you're daydreaming and then later you will write a long essay on how my wife is making me uncomfortable with her extreme religious practices or something related.

She should be willing to bend for you as her man else she's something else underneath and she's just using Catholic denomination to cover.

And the two shall become one. She's not ready to be "one" with you and you still can't find someone better suited?

As you wan start to dey submit to her you better just continue ooh... Don't come here to complain later. She done show you the direction and you done dey follow. Keep following her lead and dare not complain make thunder no kiss you

There's nothing here to complain about. The lady was sincere enough with him, it's his choice to go ahead with the marriage or not.

A woman once rejected my marriage proposal on that ground and it's okay. I will not marry someone that will not follow me to my church, but there have been marriages where the woman is a Christian and the man a Muslim, and they worked out fine.

It depends on what you can tolerate and what's a deal breaker to you.

So stop making it look like the lady is evil for standing on what she wants

There is absolutely nothing wrong with a lady keeping her religion but you have absolute right to decide which of the religious denominations which your kids will attend....That is , non-negotiable as the one marrying her.

It has always been so

When the time comes, she will follow the man to his church

Good choice. Religion should not be a barrier to other positives in marriage.

This nonsense is why we Christians are the most gullible sect ever even among st our selves we segregate

This is not a joking matter with some people. Something that is inconsequential. My brother had to leave the Anglican church and join the catholic church because the wife insisted that her sister is a Rev. sister and as such, she must marry into the catholic church. I've also seen people lose good partners because of this issue.

Really? He has the absolute right because he was the one that carried the pregnancy, abi?

lolz. if ur SPEC no dey DENOMINATION nko... oga get werin spirit need

As long as both are Christians, it doesn't matter. I have seen it work out for someone. My father's friend in church, his wife was a member of a different church, but their children were in same church with him.

If you like marry from 4th division, as long as she no give you another man pikin, you're good to go.

Oga,calm down,
Which Faith you de come or why you know fit tell us?

Are you a Muslim? Oh! I forgot religion is tool of segregation

It's very hard for me to take a lot of you religious people seriously these days...!

Look at what a young and educated person is even typing and posting.

Why should there even be denominations and divisions within Christianity?!! Are you all serving different "Gods" ?!!!

Any Christian who has properly studied scriptures and spent time in God will soundly and totally reject being termed "denominational".

Abraham and Moses them set their own rules during their time. That being said, follow your heart besides na only you go stand on judgement day

Not true. Why do you think we have denominations in the first place? Denominations came up because of differences in doctrines and all that. A man, according to the Bible, is the spiritual head of the family. How can you lead someone that believe differently from you? Mind you some denominations have practices that are almost same while some are wide apart. Catholics believe differently from most Protestants, and combining the two is a recipe for disaster. Unless both partners are not fervent in their beliefs.

I understand but just know that your kids would think that Mary is the mother of God and she has an elevated position in heaven and she and the other saints should be prayed to. If you can deal with that huge doctrinal difference, please go ahead.

As long as both doctrines use the Bible and confess Jesus as their saviour. Both of the churches mentioned in the post use the holy Bible. Attending different churches cannot strip a man of his leadership roles, you and I know that majority of men are not as religious as their wife. So the family can pray at home, he leads, they pray in their different churches, that's enough.

You probably don't know what you are doing but you will find out later

Unfortunately, based on the cultural setting that is how it works. I the North, it is based on cultural and religious ground, that it happens that way.

If they are living outside of Nigeria, it is different ball game altogether

@we4all

check out the validation of what I stated earlier. It is the Muslim that takes it up to point of converting both woman and kids to his religion

I think it's not good for husband and wife to be attending different churches , I grew up as catholic but later began doubting many of the church's teachings which is little difference from Idol worship.No one preached to me I just realised that most terms used are derived from Roman idol worshippers since it's Roman Catholic church. If you've been in Pentecostal all your life,it will be difficult to pray together as family and this might affect your future children decision, which could lead to some of them being atheist. Catholic believe too many things that's the issue.

Just find out why she won't leave her catholic church.

Likewise why would you also want her to leave her catholic church!

If you share the reasons above you may be well guided further.

As simple as faith matters can be, it's also important to know the WHYs of our various actions and decisions.

Okay. This one pass me. I still be bachelor

You know nothing about catholism my dear friend. How does the veneration of Mary and the saints, and many other practices and beliefs of the Catholic Church correlate with what Protestants believe? I am not saying that Catholics are hellbound or anything like that. If denominations/religions do not matter, what stopped the lady from joining the man in his church?
