" I've had some concerns -- 1- am a christian , he's a muslim he says he's an atheist anyway but he's just registered as a muslim and that if we ever get married and had babies they can be raised as christians if I want to , I want to know if that's legal to raise them as christians if he's a muslim ... Another thing some of the answers say that a lot of turkish men are after your money pretty much so how do I even know that or how do I know if he's all serious about it , but he's madly passionate and romantic he treats me like a princess and he doesn't mind introducing me to his family but am still hesistated about that !! Please please tell me

 It is legal for a muslim to marry a christian.
The children (as i know it by law) will follow the faith of the father 97% of all cases... however if the man is open minded the children could follow (the mothers faith).
Its very patronising to label people as *one way* or another. Alot of cultures have been *labelled* many things; and these are of course generalisations; some may be true some may not.
Individuals can be different from the *generalised view* of their race/religion.
The only thing that can determine if your guy is good is by the way he treats and behaves towards you. If he's not taking your money, treating you with respect; and willing to raise your kids as christians and your both in love; then there is not problem.
Your asking this question; so to me it seems you have doubts. Never do anything with doubt in your mind is my advice. Trust your gut instincts :)
Goodluck
(by the way I was raised in the muslim faith) .
