Should Religion And Tribe Be A Criteria For Marriage by Eim9(m): 10:32am On Feb 25, 2015
This has been a source of arguement
and really this topic has got me
thinking a lot of time. Must the
woman i want to marry be in the
same religion with me? Must we be
from the same tribal background? I
know most singles who are about to
get married get confused when they
are in this situation, where the one
you love is from a different religion
and you just don’t know how your
parents would feel about it.
Questions like;
> Will my parents give me their
blessings on the step I am about to
make?
> What will the future look like for
a husband and wife in different
religion.
> How do I cope with the traditions
I have never experienced or that I
don’t even know.
I know you reading this might be a
parent, or even single almost getting
married or even a student. I know
cases like this would be difficult to
explain or choose. Confusion sets in.
Looks like this has lots of
disadvantages to me than advantages,
but I really want to know your own
personal opinion on this topic. Let’s
everyone give his or her own opinion.
Is Marrying a woman or man from a
different religion or tribe bad? Give
reasons for your answer.

What do you think, please give your opinion.

Marrying someone from the same tribe & religion aids compatibility.

what exactly is wrong with marrying from the same religion and/or tribe as you?

if you cant or wont, that's still no reason to disturb everyone over your choices.

this attention seeking is unnecessary.

If you marry out, stop attacking those who don't. If you marry from your own place, stop attacking those who married out.

In short, let everyone mind their own business.

Religion, yes. Tribe, not necessarily.

Nicely said, but I am not saying this as regards myself, I just asked a question that required everyone's opinion. And it looks like most people don't see any wrong in that of tribe, but religion. If you say you can marry from another religion, and your parents do not agree, what is your next step?
