Yes, it is legal in most countries for people from two different religious traditions to marry; such intermarriages are still frowned upon by very religious Jews and Christians, but are more common (and more accepted) among people who are not very identified with organized religion. However, there are some serious theological questions that any couple who is planning to intermarry will need to address, if the marriage is going to be successful. While a Jew and a Christian can certainly have a loving relationship, the two faiths have some very real differences. Questions such as where to marry (a church or a synagogue or someplace secular) or what religion to raise the children, or even which holidays to celebrate, can cause dissension if both people do not find a solution they can live with.
While my parents are not technically Jewish and Christian, one comes from one religion, the other from the other. Technically, yes, they can. If their beliefs are strong enough to tear apart their affection, then they don't deserve each other anyway. (i.e. "I can't marry you because you're Jewish, and I can only marry a Catholic!")
It would be possibe if the the people love each other.
Another Answer:Yes. And if you want to stay married, you'd better come to an unflinching clear-eyed decision about how you'll raise the children, how you'll celebrate the holidays, and how you'll break the bad news to the disappointed set of grandparents. And prepare to be disappointed yourself. Whether you're the "winner" or the "loser" in that decision, you'll either have to live with a vaguely depressed spouse, or battle your own sense of loss every time another holiday rolls around.And whatever you do, don't agree to "compromise" by half-heartedly observing both sets of holidays. Your children will be confused, nobody will be happy, and all the grandparents will be disappointed.
Best advice of all: Pray long and hard about this decision, together, before you choose a solution. God loves honorable people of every religious affiliation, and will guide you if you have an open heart and a listening ear.
They're not supposed to, because it can endanger the future of Judaism. Christians and Moslems (and others) also, agree that people should marry within their own religion.
Sadly, many Jews don't care - they think love is more important.
They are able be married by a justice of the peace, but (opinion:) it's not a good idea. In addition to the Torah's prohibition against doing so, there are very many cases in which the spouses use the religious difference as fuel to add to the flames once they're already fighting over other matters. Maintaining a marriage is hard enough without the interfering factor of different religious backgrounds.Also, there is the question of how to raise the children. A seemingly kumbaya-type peace-loving interfaith education very often turns out to be confusing to the children, who now have no complete identity. Statistics show that mixed-marriage children are less likely to practice any religion at all, than are their single-faith counterparts (even those of minimally-religious homes).
In actual practice, intermarriage amounts to assimilation, the product of which is descendants who may no longer see themselves as part of the religious heritage of either parent.
Yes, even though not all families might agree/be happy with it.
By consulting with their rabbis and/or priests, etc, and booking a day for their interfaith wedding.
According to Torah-law, Christians should marry Christians, and Jews should marry Jews.
Yes, a Muslim man can marry a Jewish and/or a Christian woman.
No.
A Muslim man may marry a Muslim woman. He is permitted to marry a Christian or Jew woman provide she still believes in the oneness of Almighty Allah. A Muslim woman can marry only a Muslim man.
A Jew is a person who follows the religion of Judaism. As the Church of England is Christian, the answer would be no.

cant. only if she Muslim, Jew or christian.
Yes a Muslim man may marry a Christian or a Jew Woman. Since they are from the Book of ALLAH , though their book has been changed over time
A Black African can marry a Christian or a Jew. It is difficult for anyone to marry a Christian Jew since there is no such person. A person is either a Christian or a Jew, not both at the same time. They are two separate religions. They have been separated for about 2000 years.Another view:Yes they can marry under certain circumstances. It is possible to be a Messianic Jew which is essentially a Jewish Christian. They would be Jewish and then ask Christ to come into their heart and life and be their personal savior. They would see Christ as the fulfillment of Judaism and not feel compelled to abandon their Jewish traditions. Anyway, the African would likely have to be of at least one of those faiths to marry.Answer:The view of normative Judaism, and most Christians, is that a person is either Christian or Jewish. One who accepts Jesus as savior is fully Christian, whether or not he/she keeps Jewish precepts.To answer the Question: A Black African may marry a Jew or a Christian. Color and geography are irrelevant. If the Black African is not Jewish, traditional Judaism states that he/she should marry within his own faith. He could convert to Judaism for marriage purposes, but this is allowed only after the fact and only if he/she actually intends to live as a Jew.If a Black African wishes to marry a Christian and is not a Christian himself, most Christians would expect him to become Christian before the marriage.
It's the best way.
Answer: A Muslim man can marry a Jewish or Christian woman - as long as she is a practicing Jew or Christian. That is because, as the "People of the Book", Jews and Christians are like family. There is a common belief system there. The reasons why a Muslim woman cannot marry a Jewish or Christian man are that 1) the woman has certain practices which a non-Muslim husband may interfere with 2) children are often raised according to a husband's religion.
Per religion, a Muslim man can marry a Muslim, Christian, or Jewish woman but a Muslim woman can marry only a Muslim man, from an informed man
It's hard to say. I just know that interfaith marriages have more problems.
