nope. my guy believes, in a vague way, in a god who (he tells me when i urge him to describe his god -- we don't talk about this a lot) "created evolution." it doesn't really affect his behavior on a daily basis. it's not as if this belief causes him to vote for republicans, or kick dogs, or hate any special group of people (apart from, say, nazis and other white supremacists). it's not an important part of his life. as for meeting nonbelievers in general (not for dating, since i have my guy) i meet them randomly, sometimes unexpectedly. i'd probably meet more but i don't get out much and although i am not shy about discussing any particular topics, religion comes up when it does, and doesn't when it doesn't. so i don't always know who believes what. people who make their deep religious beliefs known right off the bat tend to BE bats, so i don't develop relationships with such people.

A drummer?? Girl you are a catch !!!!!!!!!

I’m sure there’s people of reason around here. No one on this site though. Looking for skeptics is a bit harder than looking for atheists it seems. Your not alone, I’m feeling the isolation too.

I won’t disqualify a potential mate over their religion.

Is there not any secular humanist, atheist, agnostic groups in your area? They are becoming more numerous these days. But I hear ya! There's not another atheist within miles where I live, except my dog! lol

You deserve to have whatever criteria is important to you. I recently discovered a new one for me - the ability to walk. Some may say that's discriminatory, but I don't care - I want a woman who can hike with me!

Do food, culture, hygiene, money, shopping, sleeping habits have to match? If no, why beliefs if he is imposing it on you?

Who gives a damn!
