I voted yes mostly because my girlfriend is a Christian. She's not devout, but she does go to church occasionally and has a love for Jesus and God. However she's not very strict and definitely seems to have an anti-thesis of what the Bible says and such. She hasn't tried putting her views on to me, mostly that it should be my decision and that it wouldn't be me to begin with.
I'm an atheist, so religion has no part of me. I have an interest it, all of them including Christianity, though most of the beliefs that the religion and others have don't interest me, or I just pick and choose what I want.
As far as concerning kids, if I have them with her, I'd like our kids to choose their religion. If they want to be Christians, fine. Buddahists. OK. Satanists, that's fine. Whatever they want to believe in and makes them happy. If they do become Christian, and perhaps more devout than my girlfriend, and they accuse me of being a heathen, so be it. Though it would hurt to have your own kids not love you for that reason, or disown you.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
