Could you look past someone's religious beliefs?

If you truly loved someone could you look past the fact that they were or were not religious? My boyfriend of 2 and a half years is religious, I however am not. We have never had a problem until recently. We have been talking about marriage and kids and how our lives would be. I personally could care less that he is religious. I love him for who he his. I love all of him even if that includes religion. I have told him that I would get married in a church for him and as for as kids go I would want them to have a choice whether or not to be religious. I would want them introduced to both parents personal beliefs. And I would love my kids whether or not they were religious just like I love my boyfriend. So I guess I am asking if the average person could look past religion or would you actually end a relationship with someone over it?Could you look past someone's religious beliefs?
Every situation is different but I think most of the time it is more of a big deal to the person who is religious. To the non-religious person the fact that they have different or no religious beliefs--they don't see it as an obstacle.





However, to a lot of religious people it really matters.





But every situation and every person is different. I find it hard to believe that your boyfriend would still be with you after 2 and half years, if he really thought the religious issue was that big a deal.Could you look past someone's religious beliefs?
This is a relationship ending conversation. You cannot look past the religious aspect. It will be a common theme throughout his life obviously and your kids will be involved too.
my first husband was an athiest and I am a catholic. I babtised my children, but let them pick there church. My second husband is buddist and I am still catholic. married 16 years first time, 13 and still counting 2nd time
I think it would be very hard for a relationship like yours to succeed. Resentment would grow probably on both of you. I wouldn't recommend it.
I had a very good friend once tell me that no matter how nice I am or how much money I make or how I look could she ever see herself with someone like me. I asked why she said because she is very religious and I am not as religious as her. She believed thinks that I didn't and vice versa. We are just friend and don't feel that way about each other but she was just explain the situation of religion in a relationship. I am religious I just don't carry the bible around with me and she does.
Good you have not start the fighting part. If he has a strong religious beliefs, you will have problem at a later stage. At a certain point in time you need to have same beliefs in order to be together with him. That is.
