Religious girls bore me to tears.
And their ideas about fun things to do always involve raising money.
Yes, I did.
I’m an atheist, but lived with a churchy girl for a few years.
We just ignored that part of each other.
You have to ignore something to make it work long anyway. When we broke up, that issue never appeared in the emotional exchanges, so it wasn’t a surpressed problem.
I did. I married one.
So far, no problems. World hasn’t come to an end.
I’ll give a qualified yes. However, I wouldn’t date the overly dogmatic (well, I couldn’t anyway, since I’m a lesbian, and the odds of find someone who is both dogmatic and not supressing their gayness is slim to none)
I don’t see too many problem with dating the average religious person. We all have closely held beliefs, and whether religion is involved or not, we’d still have beliefs different than our partner.
Basically, it all depends on the person and how well we click togther.
I like to discuss spirituality. I don’t think I could date anyone for whom such discussions were uncomfortable. Agreeing is optional. Respect is not. I like my religion, I think it is pretty and a good step in the right direction. If you feel the same way about yours, fantastic! People should believe that what they are doing is good. People should also realise that what is good for them may not be good for all.
Thinking through all of that, yes I will date religious people, if they are also tolerant, kind hearted, intellegent and funny.
Sure, I would. But not a zealot…zealots are basically humorless.
I’m hoping to.
But like others have said, I wouldn’t want to date someone whose life revolved around religion. You’ve got to have some common ground.
Depends more on features than philosophy.
A great smile can make me do anything. 
No, because they are either weak minded or phonies. From what I can see, people who go to church here either do so for :
- Business. They try to get customers for their business or meet people who are useful for them.
or
- Weak minded. Do I have to explain this one?
Having said that, I wish I could believe in God. Heck, who wants to die forever? Sure, convince me that when I’m dead I’ll actually be going somewhere else, I’ll believe. I’ll even donate all my worldly possessions.
No way. I don’t want to be held up to someones idea of what THEY think I should be doing morally.
Hey Major you agree with Jesse Ventura.
I dated one once for nine years. Then she claimed to have seen the light, and I wasn’t in it. Shame too, because I think I behaved more Christian-liked than most Christians. I even remained a virgin for her, hoping that she would come back. <sigh>
