    I know they are endogamous and do not tend to inter-marry.

    Any such relationship either failed or succeeded.

    Am a Syrian christian and know few relatives and friends who married from other religions/communities. So far have not seen any cases of separation or divorce. you can call the community endogamous but to my knowledge only Knai christians appear to be very rigid. In other divisions of the community youngsters do marry others. May I know the reason for your question.

    thanks for your reply. Well it was for one of my friends, she is kinda going hard times to get married. I don't know the full story. there was a talk going regarding this topic among our group. So this question has raised in my mind.

    and, who are knai christians? what is the difference?

    Dear Sherin,
    I am happy to read your post. I know a Hindu gal in love with a Syrian Christian guy. Both are interested in going ahead with the marriage. of course the wedding will be in church. But can you give some points as to how both of them have to go about and take the topic with their parents. is the Hindu gal reqd to get converted? How long is that process? What other things she has to be ready for? Usually are hindu gals welcome in Syrian christian homes as daughter -in -law? Your relatives experiences will help... Thank you in advance for sharing. I am happy these days inter religious marriage are common in India :)

    Thank you for the reply. The gal and guy dont expect each other to get converted . They have no issues with religion. But i want to know what all can be expected when they start to talk of this inter religious marriage takes place with their parents. THey might be broadminded and accept the guy and the gal. if not, what all customs are required to be done as prelude to the wedding ? :)

    Any marriage based on conditions is likely to face lot of hiccups.
    Inter religious marriages are getting common but are people accepting these marriages in the real sense? If one of the partner has to convert to gain acceptance in the other partners family then where does the acceptance of society stand here?
    I am in a inter religion marriage but neither of us would ask other to leave their religion.
    Anyway to each his own but I feel when you love some one you accept them the way they are and that also includes their faith!
