aragon4realz:
I met this girl 4years back and one thing led to another and we started a relationship, things have been pretty well and we love each other very much, we have our ups and down but we makeup for it. I love her so much I could do anything for her and she loves me too in her own special kind of way.

The problem now is that am planning on proposing to her in a couple of weeks, I even stylishly measured her ring size and I have been visiting some jewelry stores to pick the perfect ring for her and also planning some surprise engagement party/get together for her but the thing is that she hates my church (catholic).

She is Anglican by birth but she attends one of the pentecostal churches which I don't want to mention,
we have been talking about this church of a thing for the past 3 months now and she has sworn never to get married in the Catholic Church and I can't leave my church because of this.

I even stopped talking or texting her for some couple of days now but today she texted me saying that "I should do this one thing for her by leaving my church" and even said it to my face that I should not propose to her when the time comes cos she will say no because of this.

Am just confused, what shall I do? I need help

Thing is both of you are Christians and you're by doing this church thing bringing separation in the body of Christ..
is it not one God?
Is the God in Catholic different from her own church..This has to be trashed out squarely before you both walk the road to forever.

if you or her by any means give in to the pressure because of marriage to change church, you might be struggling with that in marriage.

If she's the will of God for you, God always has his way of making things work perfectly, if it continues this way, pray and your wife will surface. God be with you.

You see why i hate christiandom and i.like the islam way of worship is because all muslim see them self like one and most Christian see them selves better than other Christians . Now its not about you getting married to a muslim lady ooo but because you are a catholic. My brother wen u marry this lady today only future shall tell. Because if she can start controlling you starting with u changing ur denomination then you dont have a control over her in future. Shes more wiser than u, she has seen the vunerabilities and the inadequacies u possses has a man.
Guy u are the man and as such u need to take the bull by the horn if not your enemy will remain redundant in future

Mr Man what i will advise you first is to educate her on the Catholic Faith coz most of the comment here obviously show a shallow knowledge about what the Catholic faith entails and if she will not listen to you then i will advise that you look elsewhere.Also she has little knowledge about the faith from your post and you should not jeopardize your happiness for that flimsy reason.You can also still marry her and allow her to practice her faith if you want to navigate through.Honestly my advise is for you to let her go if she insist on not accepting your proposal because you are a Catholic.My humble opinion.

Stop talking nonsense. Muslims have sects too. Muslims don't see themselves as one. Otherwise why is Buhari persecuting El Zakzazy. Is it not because he's a leader of the Shia Muslims.

This is one of the issues that shows how shallow minded and hypocritical most Nigerians are.
We claim to be so religious yet we suffer and live in abject poverty.
We are all mostly ethno religious bigots.
And sad enough those that even call themselves Christians still can't find a common ground of faith.
I am a mix Bini/Yoruba .was born a Muslim but now a Christian and never for once in my life has it ever occurred to me that I must choose my future partner from a certain tribe religion or sect cos tho I am a Nigerian but I refuse to subscribe to that myopic ethno religious sentiment.
Back to the topic OP am sorry to say you and your girl are one of the problems of this country, both of you find it do difficult to free yourselves from the shackles of religious sentiments & to think of the fact that you both pray to the same God makes it a bigger shame.
Both of you need serious education and growing up to do.
Both of you should get married to your respective churches

Please be factual op, you attend " olumba olumba the star of the sunset " . Aren't you Oga Jamiama from Camila Grove? We know you in Camila Grove. To marry into Olumba olumba the bride needs the roasted buttocks of a hungry agric fowl and she may not be able to find this. This must be the reason for her hesitance.

bro dnt hope to get nice advice from here cos this is not a Catholic tred, the problem btw both of u is that Catholic is an 'established' church and Anglican is an 'established' church too both of them are grounded in faith so it's really difficult for any of u to leave ur church because the two churches are like masters and both of u have been birthed in the teachings and fait of ur churches so what u can actually do is to try convince her which I know is difficult because of her faith in her church another option is for u to marry her and let her attend her church if she agrees or u totally leave her and go for another girl from ur church forget the thing called love it's a thing of the mind

A man's church is what a 'wife' should follow her husband to and not the other way round. If she pleads that you wed her in her church before joining you, its about communication.

mrblessed:
When bigotry is wedded to ignorance the inevitable consequence is the product of your baseless diatribe. Again, your lame and dismal description of Catholic Church shows you don't possess the faintest idea of what church teaches. Yes, Catholic Church has a different style of worship which unfortunately irks many pentecostals, and actuates them to make unguarded and unfounded comments about what they barely understand. In the Catholic Church, Jesus is the chief cornerstone and the symbol of highest veneration. Take it from me, we worship Jesus and Jesus alone. You merely joined the bandwagon that traffics ignorance and hatred. A lady you purportedly invested with the claim of "high spiritually" has been in relationship four year which involves sexual intercourse, yet she has "higher spiritual" rating because she worships in a different church, other than Catholic Church. Don't mistake noisemaking and shouting as the only prerequisite for knowing a true Christian and effective means of evangelization. Jesus didn't use these methods during His earthly mission. We have very few orthodox churches today with an unremitting mushrooming of pentecostal churches that claim to possess the ideal way to make heaven, yet we are inundated with societal ills of epic proportions, some of which are perpetrated in churches. If Pentecostalism is the answer as you erroneously claim, salvation gospel which was ordained by Christ and not prosperity gospel, will be their fundamental doctrine. In all this needless fanaticism, I believe that my faith in Christ Jesus, accompany with my good deeds are the only valid visa to secure heaven. Thank you.

My first question, why did it take you guys so long to visit the topic

Yoruba people will say "if you won't eat something, don't even raise it to your nose to smell it".

I can't marry a Muslim
so I won't date a Muslim. I can't marry a JW so I won't date one. It is as simple as that.
