Being a God believer, I believe one should marry a person, who believes in God at heart.

Some will others won't, it depends on the man and the choices they man for their lives and future children.

Either is fine if it is right for them.

Yea, but which God?
The Protestant one? The Catholic one? The Muslim one? The Zoroastrian one?
You get my drift. Do you mean someone who believes in the same God as you?

It doesn't seem very compatible to have someone believe in an angry, vengeful, smiting God and someone else who believes in an all-loving, non-violent God etc.

The Catholic and Protestant God are the same. The Muslim God - well I suppose the Abrahamic God is the same, but the God of the Qu'ran is something else.

Yes, thats the majority opinion, but there's a minority opinion that they are not - the two Gods act and "forgive" differently for example. But fails to answer the question, do you need someone who believes in the same God or just a God-believer?

Chinese Filipinos ? Because the Chinese Filipinos in the Philippines are already Catholics. I don`t think there are so many who are married to Chinese outside of the Philippines.There might be some but I don't think there are really many.
Yes there are some Filipino women married to Koreans and Japanese.
