I am in dire need of advice, I am a strong catholic woman and i am getting married to a muslim man but i am not sure if this is right or not? Cause both of our faiths stricktly forbid us to marry another person of diffrent faith. and some of his beliefs are starting to scare me and make me worry as to what to do. Like how we will raise our kids casue he says muslim and i say catholic, and my oldest daughter is already a catholic so i am worried as to what to do know casue of his strong beliefes...

I just really want to talk to someone who can help me then i can ask all my questions ext

u shouldnt be unequally yolked with a nonbeliever. if u are having doubts then its best u wait until u are ready to make that decision...the both of u are strong believers and its most likely that there will be disagreements about wat u think is right....most ppl say its ok to date someone that doesnt have the same believes as u but it is most likely that the religions will crash into each other...some ppl try to respect and keep it from getting in the way but its only makes it worst....u might want to raise ur kids one way and he might want to raise them another way....its gonna be difficult to decide wat church u wanna go to...his church or ur church....this is just an unnecessary argument waiting to happen....unless one of u are willing to convert....

In essence you are implying that two people of seperate religious views cannot build a famly together?

One has to change to the other's religion?

Though it drills down to personalities but i think acceptance and tolerance is an important aspect of building an healthy relationship

Since both parties are strong believers, they should seek for the wisdom of God on how to train the children in the right way. Being a muslim or catholic does not really matter, you should try to make sure your children serve God the right way. If there is true love and understanding, everything is possible.

Of course they can build a family together but if their beliefs are as strong as she says it is then how can they make it work without the religions crashing into one another.....wat kind of family can that possibly be.....im neither catholic or muslim so i dnt kno how much of a clash it can be. yeah, u can sit and talk about it but who's to say that once it all said and done, its going to follow through.there maybe love but religion plays a big part in a persons life, if they are a firm believer.

if they do plan on building a family i suggest they plan ahead for their children. both faiths insist that the children of such marriages to be part of their own religious faith.

you dont have to change your religion, its just a suggestion

The only reason most people belong to the religion they belong 2 is because of their parents, they've been raised that way. But then there are the selected few that u know stray from familiar direction. They knew what they were getting into when they started the relationship so i think they should try and stick with it, as for the religion they raise the kids, just confuse them till they are finally old enough to choose what they want.

See confusion of a higher class brewing in the name of love. Wait ehn... marry him then when the love has cleared from Ur eyes U'l realise what U should have done. Only a girl would want to make fire cold so she can find peace living in it. Are U a girl or a woman? Are U a woman or a wife?
