Not important. I had my beliefs and she has hers. What matters is that we love each other.


As long as both are on the same footing it can bring two people together.


If respect for each other is as strong as one's faith in religion, I believe it won't be an issue. Religion is part of one's individuality and even as a couple, even if it is not unified it can still be respected and embraced as part of your partner's individuality...


Not organized but good to be grounded in your spiritual journey to God. I think it should be important. Love your higher power love yourself then able to love others.


Not much to us.


Spirituality yes very important, organized religion no


I believe religion is important in the sense that you keep your partner on track and make sure they understand their religious priorities! After all, relationships are all about support and care and this is another one of those things :) that doesn't mean you have to agree to the same religion but need to have the same overall morals and values


Not organized but a relationship with god period being god fearing is important


not at all important. Religion is the root of all evil!!!


Organized religion not so important. Being equally yoked very important. Have the same moral belief system-very important. Be God fearing and living a prayer ful life very important.




Not important. But I believe a couple should have similar belief ideas.


not too much


It's as important as my face...which is not that serious...but scary enough to be concerned about and discussed at length though...
Lol! Hilarious!!

For my partner and me, organized religion is not a big part of our relationship. For others, it may be more important. We are both big proponents of just following our own course in life and believing whatever we want, whether or not it agrees with the other person... I think possible disagreements in our views have not greatly impacted our relationship at all.
