If you don't agree with their beliefs you probably wouldn't be dating them anyway right?

what Would you date a person that was very involved with their church ?what



of course .. it shows a part of their personality that usually depicts love for God, love for their fellow man, and concern for their community and neighbors :heart:


In my expierence, it means they have a greater chance to be republican, conservative, and that they can talk about God alot.


The last time i've gone to church there where many many people balancing their check books, women making sure everyone knew they where at church, and kids looking bored, and men looking the kids.

you haven't been to my church LOL

and I don't go to church to be religious anyway .. I go because I love God and want to grow in Him. Our pastor is an excellent teacher but I love the worship most.

We have a kind of rockband worship team, actually they've cut like 4 CD's that are huge in the Christian music genre ..

I honestly wouldn't want someone who is at church tons, but I've been involved before and look at me ...

I'm the epitome of coolness :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

For christians, there pretty bad at accepting people as they are.

I dated a very devote catholic girl. She loved going to church. Never once was i told i was wrong, or what i should believe. I went to church with her sometimes just to be with her and support her. My faith didn't chance. I took what wisdom i could, and it was fine. She learned about my religion, and supported me in it as well.

I think your beliefs can differ, as long as there is respect and you work well together.

I go to church and I believe. I just choose not to try to push my beliefs on others. I show respect as well as want it back. I feel if a man cares about me and it goes that far, then its something he should know.

I think it depends on the individuals involved. I personally dont mind it, as long as you can agree on not pushing your beliefs on one another.

I always accept people for who they are .. I am absolutely NOT a judgmental type.

By the measure you judge is the measure you GET judged back (and overflowing ..) no thanks flowers

Anyway I've lived both sides of the 'fence' perse so who am I to judge? No way babe.

I feel the same. And I've dated guys that didn't profess my same faith. My only concern is my children and if I got really serious with someone then I would want them to be a good role model as well ..

I live by this rule of thumb:

"Preach always., and when necessary use words"
St. Francis of Assisi

What you are doing and how you live your life speak louder than what you say.

Jon is very involved in his church and it doesn't bother me. I used to be more involved so he is actually getting me back to going.

But my friends are just that, they are from all walks of life and all beliefs. I don't push mine on them and they don't try to convince me I am wrong.....they will lose in more ways than one with that----they will lose that arguement and they will lose my friendship.

i'm not saying specificly you are. You did say that you probly wouldn't date someone who didnt believe the same things. I've always looked at it as how compatable are there beliefs with mine, not how similar. Just thinking.
