And many people do.

For myself, it is not imperative that my husband and I come from the same religious background, because our values are extremely compatible, and in our case, any differences in dogma don't really alter that reality.

With my self-described atheist ex, values also did not happen to be compatible. The differences in values were the real downfall. I respected his choice to hold the beliefs that he did, and I couldn't have cared less about his spiritual beliefs not mirroring mine (I did care that he did not extend the same respect to my choice to hold my beliefs, however).

For me, people can believe whatever they want to believe. I care a lot more about them being decent, kind, respectful people who treat others with compassion. ESPECIALLY when they don't personally agree with or identify with them. My ex was not that person. My husband and I are.

It depends on the religion and how deeply you are involved.

A few days ago I met a man selling his Christmas decorations. Wasn't happy about it but his wife just became a Jehovah Witness. That big of a difference can not be overcome in my opinion.

A Muslim and just about anything else would also be impossible to overcome.

Literal interpreters of scripture and most other Christians would hardly agree with each other. Educating the children would be hard in this example.

Cultural, rather than practicing would probably work out for most. An unobservant Jew and lapsed Catholic would probably have few problems.

I am sure 2 people that are the same religion, with the same fervor would be the most compatible in the religious aspect, but that wouldn't apply to anything else other than religion. You could still not get along in other ways.

Yes but moreover beliefs. How else does one solve their problems? Beliefs are the foundation to how one lives their life.

A while back, I talked with this girl on OkCupid. The conversation went well to the point where we had exchanged numbers after a few days, texted, and then talked on the phone once. She was very religious (Baha'i faith), and I was a Christian that didn't really take religion that seriously. I think at that point she realized we were incompatible, and texted me so and we both parted ways.

It ultimately depends on the person.
