Let's see I grew up catholic, switch to mormon, became a pagan, studied buddhism, and married a jew. I can say that I tolerate most religions well, as long as they don't hurt someone else. I do not believe that we should kill or judge in the name of any religion and I am happy to convert to judaism for my hubby. Do I think that I will go to hell for not recognizing Jesus Christ as my personal savoir? No. or I wouldn't be willing to convert. Do I feel that there is only one correct religion and we have to find it or end up in hell-No. But that is just me. Do I look down at athiest, agnositics, monotheistic or polytheistic people. No. As I said to each his own, as long as you are not harming anyone. I try to live by the 10 commandments and that is kind of me in nutshell.

I find that alot of problems can stem from religion but I can understand how important it is for people to follow it. I can respect how people want to "Save me" only because these people care for my soul. I would not put myself in a relationship where someone's religion would not tolerate me unless I change. I think that is a very important decision to make when you are marrying someone because it can lead to problems later. ANd if you change your religious belief mid-relationship it could cause the same problem as if you decided to tell your partner that "I think I am a lesbian now". Or if you didn't want kids and now you want them. It is when you change from what you were together. That is where the problems come from.
