    Didn't the Bible say your should be evenly yoked, and you can't yoke a cow and donkey?

    Hinduism is completely against the Christian faith because they worship idols. I have been in India and I mean it. Rats, snakes, monkeys are like gods in their religion, even a part of the male sex organ..... I went to a shop thinking I was getting a garlic press and someone told me, "I don't think you want that" It turned out to be ....That baby producing part of the male. They told me that it is worshiped. Don't get me wrong, I have met some wonderful Hindus, but their religion is completely different and they do not normally marry outside of their religion.

    We haven't gotten to the statues, and sacred cows.......When some Indians come to the U.S, they leave behind some of their practices.

    I wouldn't advise anyone to compromise their religion for anyone. You will surely have some problems in the future, it is called in-laws. When you marry an Indian man consider yourself marrying the family. Especially his momma.

    No 'faith' facilitates inter-faith marriage. it is not allowed in Hinduism too; area 5 of Hindu Marriage Act (surpassed by employing secular Indian parliament in 1956) demands that the two events to marriage would desire to be Hindus. Hinduism isn't a faith. that's the custom, custom, custom, ceremony and formality, practised in Hindustan (India). it relatively is often claimed & insisted as such by employing each and all of the nicely regular Hindu clergymen, books, scholars, intellectuals, philosophers, scripts, the Ruling Political events BJP/Shiv Sena, Bajrang Dal, the main maximum powerful Indian/worldwide Hindu companies RSS/VHP, each and each/each found out/knowledgeable Hindu, and so on. A Non-Indian can not be a Hindu. no you will embody or convert to Hinduism. Hindus would have any faith of their determination. There are no dos, donts, regulations, prohibitions, instructions, instructions and orders in Hinduism. A Hindu himself has to establish what's right and incorrect. there isn't any specific holy e book or God in Hinduism. Hindus are plenty liberal and constantly know/tolerate the customary religions. Hindus’ worship/prayer is the specific jobs of their unchangeable castes/Varna (classification) they are born in by employing nature, to get perfection/Moksha (Holy Bhagavad Gita financial disaster:18 Verses:40 two-40 4).

    If I would to quote the scriptures on this matter to you, all you would hear is the opposite of what you want to hear. 1Corinthians 7:39 says this "A wife is bound during all the time her husband is alive. But if her husband should fall asleep [in death], she is free to be married to whom she wants, only in [the] Lord".
