Marrying Another Religion?

Love hath no boundaries!
Unless hes a Jew and you're a Christian, or she's a Muslim and you're a Buddhist... Well you get my drift?

Religion is usually a hot topic when brought up in any conversation, so imagine in the dating game. Usually one goes for someone who mirrors their religious beliefs. But what happens when you unexpectedly fall for someone who has a completely different belief system than you?! All though challenging, it is 100 percent possible. Both parties must be willing to come to a mutual understanding and first know that they will face many obstacles. Obstacles like who's doing the converting, and most importantly a couples' family members. Often times parents envision a certain mate for their child especially in religious and traditional communities and if they stray away from that path their family pictured for them it may cause a rift in the relationship. Having in-laws that aren't to fond of you can cause problems in most relationships. Before deciding to take the plunge and get serious with a significant other who has a different religious background both parties must have the "sit down". Sit down and have a serious conversation about where the relationship is going, and if its worth continuing. If you decide that you two are soul mates and can't eat, can't sleep without the other then go for it. Just make sure you guys are in it together because it may not be easy!
But have no fear that four letter word is here, (Love!) I'm a strong believer in the saying "Love conquers all." And once you find your mate nothing else matters. Believe in each other, be there for each other and everything will be ok!

Editing Wikipedia

Wikipedia is one of those sites that allows people (like you and me) to make edits to the contents on it's page. We can write anything we want really. Some times depending on how true to the subject your edit is, your edit can stay on the page forever or get deleted right away. If what you write is offensive or untrue then in a couple days or in a matter of hours it's deleted.
I wanted to try this out so I decided to edit a portion of wikipedias "Field of study" section of "interpersonal relationship."

                                                             Interpersonal Relationship
In the "field of study" portion of the wiki definition about interpersonal relationships, it reads as follows.

==Field of study==

The study of interpersonal relationships involves several branches of the social sciences, including such disciplines as sociology, psychology,anthropology, and social work. The scientific study of relationships evolved during the 1990s and came to be referred to as 'relationship science',^[2] which distinguishes itself from anecdotal evidence or pseudo-experts by basing conclusions on data and objective analysis. Interpersonal ties are also a subject in mathematical sociology.

In bold you can find where I made my own edit to the field of study portion of the definition.

Dear wikipedia, define Marriage.

I got to thinking about marriage and decided to have a look see on its definition on the popular site Wikipedia. Now Wikipedia is scrutinized often for having tons inaccurate information. Wikipedia allows Internet users to edit and add what ever they like, which makes it in the eyes of many less credible site. below is the information I found about marriage on wikipeida. I felt the information was accurate 100 percent. Marriage is a union between two persons. once married you are bined together and the only way out of a marriage is through divorce.

 
Marriage (also called matrimony or wedlock) is a social union or legal contract between people called spouses that establishes rights and obligations between the spouses, between the spouses and their children, and between the spouses and their in-laws.^[1] The definition of marriage varies according to different cultures, but it is principally an institution in which interpersonal relationships, usually intimate and sexual, are acknowledged. When defined broadly, marriage is considered a cultural universal. In many cultures, marriage is formalized via a wedding ceremony. In terms of legal recognition, most sovereign states and other jurisdictions limit marriage to opposite sex couples or two persons of opposite gender in the gender binary, and some of these allowpolygynous marriage. Since 2000, several countries and some other jurisdictions have legalized same-sex marriage. In some cultures, marriage is recommended or compulsory before pursuing any sexual activity.
