[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know several couples where before they got married, one person was mildly religious and the other was not religious, and then as soon as they got pregnant, the mildly religious one became super religious. I don't know why, but it was always the men who made this switch. Maybe this was part of how they understood their paternal duties. As for me, I'm not religious at all, and if I meet someone who's even slightly relgious, that's a dealbreaker for a romantic relationship.[/quote]

Funny you say this, as I’ve seen it too.  I had a jewish friend in college who was not at all religious when I knew him then.  He got engaged to an Episcopalian girl and I recall some dust-up with her family because they were planning an engagement party on a date that was a Jewish holiday, when he had never observed Jewish holidays before.

I think if you’re dating someone seriously, religion and the role you envision it playing out in your family life are important topics to discuss thoroughly.   [/quote]
