How do you know none of the are xians?

My roommate in uni was Arab, born in Kuwait to Palestinian parents (I guess bad luck followed his family).

They were Arab but Christian. You can't tell religion by colour of skin. I've known lots of xian Arabs. (Mostly through him and his family).

**** off you tedious **** <ok>
 
I actually converted to marry my Muslim wife over 20years ago now. It helped that I wasnt really a religious person before. Initially was a Muslim in name only but started first by fasting during Ramadan, then started praying but there was never any pressure from her or her family.
My parents were devout Catholics and were shocked at first but very accepting.

You did what you did through love..

I admire you..<ok>
 
We registered at some Communist China office with people in Military type uniforms and had the wedding in the Wuhan Shangri la Hotel .

We hired an English speaking compare to do the traditional vows and he translated as we went .

I also had to carry her to the car and they let off weapons grade firecrackers .

Reminded me of a scene from Platoon.

Good times

What part of China is your wife from?
 
I don't think I could marry a Muslim.

From my own experience even the ones that are Westernised are still fundamentally devout.

I don't think my way of life and outlook on life is compatible.

I've had a relationship with one and we discussed marriage and she asked me would I be willing to convert?

I didn't answer her but it was pretty obvious what my feelings were.

There was not even a discussion of whether she would become a Christian or agnostic.

Her way of the highway - I've had a similar discussion with another woman too with the same outcome.

Its easy to say it wouldn't be an issue to marry someone from a different faith or someone with a disability (yes I know its not a great comparison) but in reality it is a very big thing.

You see I respect both of these positions equally... each is a personal choice!

And that's the point. If my son/daughter took either of those positions I would have no problem with it because it's THEIR choice. It is NOT about me, my likes or dislikes cos I aint gonna live their life.
 
My personal view...

I wouldn't want my kids to be gay for several reasons.

1) it makes life more complicated and lowers quality of life. It's a simple fact. It's harder to be gay than straight in this world. I wouldn't want my kids to have to deal with that crap.

2) I want grandkids one day. Yeah, I know they can adopt, but that's not really the same thing.

# 2 is probably a selfish reason, but it's a reason nonetheless.


I don't want my kids to be gay, but I'd totally support them and accept them if they were. If it is what they are, then so be it, that's what they are.

Regardless of religion: atheist, Muslim, or Xian; I personally think it is despicable of anyone to disown or push away their kids because of their sexuality... Or for any other reason outside that kids control.

It's OK to be disappointed because it doesn't meet your expectations on how they should live. It's not ok to shun them or disown them because of it.
