Theology and Marriage

This post is alot more serious in thought than some of my recent ones have been, and I'm not really sure why this topic came to mind. Historically it seems the majority of Christian marriages are made up of two people from the same fellowship/denomination. I've rarely known, for example, some one from the CofC to marry a baptist. Somehow this came to mind and got me thinking, how close would my theology have to match a potential bride's in order for the relationship to be lasting and built on the right principles? Strange thought to ponder, considering I'm not in a relationship (and seem to be a long way from being in one). Obviously there are certain beliefs that I could in no way compromise, they are foundational to my faith. There are, however, some more "border" areas where my thoughts are really based more on tradition within my fellowship than on actual biblical theology. At the same time though, the husband is supposed to be the leader of the family in all matters, especially in spiritual matters. If there is too much disagreement, I don't see how that could work out very well. Of course marriage seems to be all about compromise anyway, so it might work out in some situations. It got me thinking too... I really don't get into deep theological discussions with very many people. Thinking of all the girls I know, even the ones I consider close friends, I can only think of one that I've had that kind of discussion with. Maybe it just is not the most natural topic to bring up in a conversation. Prehaps that is something I need to work on though, because in the long run, nothing matters more.
