Why would a sincere muslim want someone to become muslim though they all know they are only 'cheating' themselves and Allah for the purpose of marriage? And the other way round ofcourse too..

I wouldn't change my religion (actually I don't really have one  ), but I would try to find out as much as possible about their religion because it is a way of life and intergrated into culture, so its important to respect and embrace that person's religion. If I believed it was right for ME I would change, but would not do it for the sole purpose of being with someone.

For some people certain religions are instilled in them from the time their a small child. It would be very difficult for me to forget my upbringing and switch to another religion. I do however think that it could become some what difficult, if you marry outside of your religion and have children. Especially, if both of you are very committed to your own religion and can't agree on your child's upbringing. This is something that should be discussed prior to your marriage and agreed upon. I have to agree with Aenigma X, I wouldn't just change my religion for someone else. It would have to be a decision I felt was best for me.

Your right, I have noticed that. Oh oh I just agreed with again. Maybe we could invite our friend Rain to debate with us.  He always seems up for a good debate.

Laughter is what I was going for, honestly.  Bye the way, where has he been? It's been quiet here. Maybe he will respond to your Tarkan debate. He is a hair designer.

Who doesn't do anything, including changing their religion, for their love, not mention love.

Well said sweetie.......
Religion is (or SHOULD be) a personal thing about what and how you believe - it is not a life choice in order to fit in, be trendy or somehow reap benefits. Unfortunately too many people adopt a religion for the wrong reasons - such as it being what their parents said they believed or because they want to make a partner happy.
*IF* there is a god (and I am not prepared to get into a debate about that) then one thing is certain. God gave us the ability to question and to reason. So it is upto each individual to decide exactly what they believe and not follow an organised religion just because of their parents or because of the country in which they were born.

I would not change my religion for my partner, nor would I expect them to either. I grew up Catholic and attended a Catholic school, was even going to go to a Catholic college. Now I don't even attend church regularly. It certainly doesn't mean I am not thankful for all God has given me or that I love him any less. I have come to realize, since I have gotten older, I don't really like the idea of an organized religion. I like to try and keep it simple. I think one should try to live a good life, be kind and respectful of others and give thanks for the many blessings in life. My boyfriend and I have discussed if we had children what religion they would be. He said that we would expose them to both and let them decide when they were older. Of course this sounds like a good idea, if this could really work, however, I think it could cause some problems down the road. I guess this will have to be discussed further when I visit him in December. Any how, I do agree, religion is a very personal thing and should not be given up easily.
