Firstly, I'd say that you don't have different religions at all....

Both the Baptists and Seventh-day Adventists are Protestant Christian denominations.

I believe it would have to be something you work out between the two of you. That said, you are both Christian, and presumably both worship God, but in different ways.

Maybe it could be an eye-opener for the both of you. Have you considered both experience going to each other's churches, and see if going to a Church other than the one you're used to attending develops your relationship with God.

I'd certainly be interested in hearing how things go in the future, too. But then comes the deadly part of putting contact details on the web....!

I wish you both the best with your relationship, and hope that your differing churches doesn't hinder your relationship at all.

it shouldn't really get in the way of anything. unless parents get in the way but other than that, nothing. a relationship is for liking someone for who they are, not what their religion is.

A reader, anonymous, writes (11 March 2009):

The first problem with religion is if you try to enforce your beliefs on others. The second problem with religion is if you try to pressure your future children into your religion. The last problem with religion is if you take your religion literally. What I mean by "literally" is if you believe you will go to Heaven and he will go to Hell and vice versa.

Otherwise, if the religion you adhere to is simply a tool to help guide you through life, then you have nothing to worry about. It will only be a metaphor for the act of 'virtue'.
