Re: [ MATURE ] The Sex Thread [ MATURE ]
I can understand that. As I said, I am in no way saying that an "unequally yoked" relationship is doomed to failure.
I don't think you understand the difference between morals and beliefs. I can relate very closely to a majority of Christian morals -- I don't think many decent people can't, and I doubt I'd ever date somebody who made the argument that murder and thievery are more desirable than charity and forgiveness. The belief systems themselves are far less important and far less dividing among people in relationships.
Now I'm not disagreeing that it's best to have some common ground with your partner as the relationship becomes more serious, but it is amazing how many barriers can be transcended by nothing more than mutual respect. You might believe in invisible sky fairies and I might believe that we're secretly all hairless apes, but I really think you'd be surprised by how very little that would matter if we were in love.
To be honest, I have had more relationships end over differences in musical taste than differences in religion. It's never been an issue.
