Case. The partners have different faiths or levels of religiosity; conflicts over traditions, holidays, upbringing.
Model. Two value systems with different configs. The task is not to rewrite the other but to assemble a shared compatibility protocol.
Protocol. Talk through the key questions early (children, rites, holidays); respect both sides’ faith; create the couple’s “third culture”.
Lesson. Faith can be a shared support, not a battlefield — if it isn’t turned into a weapon.
