"You shall not intermarry with them: do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons. For you will turn your children away from Me to worship other gods..." (Deuteronomy 7:1-3).

I think one can practice his religion even though he is married to a gentile if the gentile is tolerant and the kids of a jewish mother are jews anyway according to hallacha no matter whats the fathers religion.

This is far from reasonable. Because the children will not have a stable Jewish home the food will only be kosher when the Jewish Parent cooks it. And the Gentile parnter will not keep kosher. Yom Tov presents a problem because you are not allowed to cook for a gentile on Yom Tov. The problems go on and on this only covers the very basics
Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
One passage is 1 Corinthians 9:5.

Don't even the Christians believe that people should not marry if they are not equally yoked? Do you not believe your own religion?
There's a good reason for two people of very different belief systems to marry (even though Western culture is obsessed with the idea of a forbidden relationship with all odds against it which is why they are on very top of the divorce statistics).
If two people marry but do not have a common life goal, then the marriage will most likely fail (or worse, the two people will be miserable). Regardless of romantic fantasies, the initial feelings that one has with the opposite sex do not last and something with subsistence must take its place for real love (not lust) and respect to grow and for the two to have self esteem and pride that they accomplished something important together.
Furthermore, how would someone raise their children? G-d forbid that the Jewish people lose their identity and their Torah.

Exellent points Shlomo.

Let me just be blunt about this. I think you are hear to cause problems and stir up trouble. With a name like "Inquiring Mind", it's obvious that you aren't here because you just love our message.
You have been given plenty of logical reasons. To even suggest such a thing would be the end of the Jewish people, G-d forbid.

It's only common sense.
It is against her religion.
Isn't that enough said.
How will New Testament Bible quotes help? ???
