I think the core needs to be similar. It would be difficult if one believes in "Jesus" and the other doesn't.
Unimportant for my relationship, though I do think it's important in relationships where the 2 partners find it important. I feel whatever the partners believe that it's important to agree or agree to disagree. I find respecting each others opinions is most important.
Probably fairly important
Completely irrelevant. Also completely irrelevant in the world at large except for the weak minded fools that cling to it desperately.
Only if they are both interested.
I think having similar views on things is good. Or being open about them is good. Meeting on middle ground is great.
I think sharing similar values and morales to guide your life and relationship is crucial- it doesn't necessarily have to be from an organized religion. I also think religion as a basis for holiday celebrating was great for kids growing up, or it was for me.

I think it is very, very important... God first, then your spouse, then yourself
It's very important. We put God before our relationship. We aren't really religious per say but we do have faith and believe
Very important
I think it's very important. First God then your spouse, then children then everything else will fall into place.
Agree

Religion of sex is rest aren't
Organized religion isn't important to me. I don't want a fanatic. I think its important to share the same morals so your kids don't have two competing ideas.
Imagen if there was no religion
A belief in God is a MUST for me. So happy that my man and I can pray together about anything, or for each other. God should be the center if any relationship that you want to grow for life.
Not very important if the relationship wasn't originally selected or determined by religious orientation. I see the relationship as a separate and distinct entity that is best left unadulterated by an externally imposed belief system.
No pienso que la religión en si sea importante. Creo que la espiritualidad individua y en pareja es importante. También creo importantes algunos valores que son enseñados por medio de la religión pero que el sentido común también te lo da como por ejemplo la disciplina, lealtad, etc
