Question
halo fr.I'm a catholic from Tanzania,East Africa.I have a girlfriend who is a Jehovah witness.I need to get married to her but she want me to change and be similar to her faith.should I shift from RC to JW?

Answer
Of course not.  To do so would be to embrace a false religion and make you a heretic contemplating an invalid marriage.  It sounds as though you need to reconsider this "marriage" entirely.  It sounds as though she would not make a suitable spouse.  You should not generally be seeking marriage outside your ow true religion.  There will only be many more serious problems down the road, so that the "marriage" will probably not last.
