BECAUSE IT IS.
I agree. I think I said this before, but it's the intensity that each person in the relationship feels for his/her own religion that matters, and then the matter of how much he/she can respect the feelings of the other person.

I'm pretty hardcore about being a born-again Christian, and as I look at the few men I've dated outside my religion, they have been almost exclusively Jewish. Each has understood my need to be who I am while worshipping, and since I feel that a BA Christian is somewhat of a "completed Jew", I'm quite at home at Shul. I just could NOT keep kosher - I tried, but can't.

But if you can have that relationship with ANY two religions, that's a good thing. Again, it's the agreement between the two people involved, and not cut and dried.
