Because I don't just go to service, and since I want someone active in ministry, they probably won't either. I teach a class on Wednesdays, I have a Sunday school class, I work with the youth... If I had not committed to serving in ministry, it would be as simple as, "Hey, we'll go to your service at 8 and mine at 9:30."

For me, my religion isn't just a Sunday morning thing. It's an every day, from when I wake up until I go to bed relationship, and I won't marry anyone for whom that isn't true as well.

It's ok that your mind is boggled. However, this is me personally. I would not say, "Excuse me, but I think you should leave your significant other because you are a different religion and it can't possibly work," to a couple that is making it work. It's their call, not mine, just as my choice to date/marry someone only within my denomination is my call. It makes things much easier in my realtionship and my service to do so, and I don't expect most people to understand.
