Well it wouldn't really matter to me.SKA said:
If I have a girlfriend (meaning I still don't), then I'll believe in her, if she believes in a X religion (a reasonable one, e.g not a religion where they teach you commit suicide), then I'll believe in that religion too inorder to know her better. Myself ain't religious, hence I wont change my perspective. I might to to a church with her, but I won't truly immerse myself into it.

what a cool non conformist you are 
i personally think it's all about respect. say i started going out with a jew (personally being roman catholic) i would respect their religion and i would never try and convince them to convert or abandon their beliefs for my sake. however, in return, i would expect them to respect my beliefs. honestly, religion isn't a big enough part of my life that i would personally expect anyone to convert and considering my excess of hedonism, i doubt i would ever become that involved with a strongly religious man anyhow : )
edit - that said, i would be willing to attend church etc for some reasons with my partner, although certainly not on a weekly basis. yeah, snoozefest, but so what?

I'm pretty sure i couldn't stand a totally religious person, and they couldn't stand me.... I'm too much of an opinionated atheist.

i have my beliefs and i dont think ppl should try to make u change that because they r in a position of the relationship to influence change for ur life. however if the person doesnt hold any beliefs its slightly different
yes respect is important- but where is respect if changing ur religion to suit someone else's wants and what they see as respect towards them?
but it is true this matter only affects different ppl according to thier beliefs

sorry, more of a cheap shot at neeja, when i was writing my post you hadn't made yours yetthejosiekiller said:
i do get your point, but at the same time i think it's the responsibility of both parties to be sensitive to the religious beliefs of their partner. ie, whilst i would most likely never convert for anyone, i would show respect for their beliefs and attempt to involve them to a degree in my life... and in return i'd expect the same.
meh, i don't really care, it's not an issue for me

lol its probably better it isnt an issue
but religion is a personal experience and should stay that way

i think it would be a beautiful thing if two people were different religioins yet they could both believe in what they wanted. As for religions such as muslim or jehova witness where their partner needs to be the same religion otherwise they cannot marry i think that would be a really hard decision to make.

yeah.. why not. it probably won't last, but it'll be fun messing with their church while i'm there.
But I plan on going on a John Safran style safari around the world anyway.
