Not anything to do with bdsm, just if for whatever reason to be with your partner you would have to change, would you?

Was that a no you wouldnt change if you HAD to?
Or was it a no because it doesn't apply to me?
If so, what if it did apply to you?

I highly highly doubt it. I would lose a great deal of respect for someone who asked me to as well. I only time I could ever see myself doing it is if I had to join a particular religion to be married in their church and being married in their church was very important to my partner.

Status: offline 		I wouldnt change it at all.  I believe what I believe and just because my partners believes in something else then we have to agree to disagree so to speak. There are a lot of fundamentals of Catholicism (like I can speel any of this...lol)  that just does not agree with me at all and so I could not change because in my mind if I became Catholic it would be the same as me joining a satanic cult and yes the differences in beliefe systems are that big. So how do we have a relationship.  We talk about religeon all the time at home but we are respectfull of each others beliefs.  Whenever she gets me stumped I look it up in her Bible read the part that is different from mine and try to move on from there. When it comes to things like dinner we pray before we eat at the family table but I do not pray with her because her prayer is against my faith.  One thing we do have though is common and mutual understandings of what is right and wrong as it pertains to our religeons... in other words something like stealing is bad in both faiths and that is the common thing that allows us to operate together so to speak.  We dont try to one up each other so to speak and we have a detailed instructions on what to do if either one of us dies so that we are treated by the faith and beliefs of our choice. I do attend church with her on occasion however I do not participate in any of the rituals that they observe.

Status: offline 		I would not take on a religion TO BE with someone, but I may decide to change a religion that is of my partners if it is best for me.  I've considered converting to Judaism, but he's not seriously Jewish and I know I couldn't be fully true to it myself so it's not going to happen.

Status: offline 		Depends on how different the religion was to my own persona beliefs.  I don't believe in orginized religion; I'm a Spiritualist, so it would really depend on what 'religion' it was and if I was in love or not.  If I planned on marrying the person, and he was VERY devout in his religious beliefs, I would stick with mine, if he was insistant, I would talk about it and come to a rational and logical conclusion after thinking about it.

Status: offline 		I wouldn't take up any religion unless there was an actual reason to believe it was true.  If there was, then I'd likely take it up.  A partner's affliations would have no impact.  (Also, since I'm more on the D than the s end of things, I suppose it'd be my call on anyhow.)

Only if I could change to Catholicism and got to be the first BDSM Pope.

Status: offline 		Does changing religion count things as little as changing between denominations of Christian?  Because, I have to tell you, there are a lot of demoninations of Christian who don't even believe different things.  They just have different names, but they've been so standardized that it just doesn't matter.  It would be pretty petty for someone not to change between many protestant denominations.  Hell, they really should just combine them.

Status: offline 		       To be with someone?  No.  Even having such a demand made would very likely be a deal breaker.  To raise UM's within an environment of cohesion and unity, I might be willing to put on a good show of it though.

Status: offline 		I think this question is dependent on so many factors that I won't be able to answer it, except from my own personal standpoint.

If it was just a religion change in name only, so we could be married in their church or some such situation, but I was still free to practice my own religion, I would consider it, especially if it meant a lot to my significant other.  However, unless I felt a true calling to the religion they were a member of, I would not join in truth.

This is just my opinion and I'm sure that others will have good reasons to either agree or disagree.  Religion and spirituality are such individual paths that it is no other individual's place to pass judgment on them.

Status: offline 		Absolutely not.  I love Master but He does not supercede my Creator.  I could never change my spiritual/religious beliefs just because someone else desired that I do so.  I wouldn't have become Master's property if we didn't share the same beliefs in the first place...............luci

Status: offline 		If it's a choice of change or don't be with me, then I'll have to say good bye to the wanna be partner. If you love me so much, then why can't I be excepted for who I am and what I believe in? Though I'm willing to compromise on a few practices, I'm not changing my core beliefs. If you don't like what I believe in, then it's time to find someone else. I make that point very clear before starting a relationship where we are known as partners.

Vise versa, I don't expect nor ask anyone to change there fundamental values just for me. If someone where to change there religion for me, I would hope they would continue the practice if we ever broke up. I perfer for people to change for themselves rather than for a person. If you change for the sake of being with a person, then your relationship has already started out being a lie.

Status: offline 		Religion Religion would I change it? What is it? Which one? where? who? how? To believe or not to believe, that is the question. Believe in what? Who said what? When? I feel like wearing black today. Does that change who I am? Today a doctor, tomorrow a gardener? Who am I really? How can we know the unknowable? Which text is right? Searching. Searching. Practicing. What? I am. Change that? How?
