Would you ever date somebody who is religious, if they respected your beliefs and did not try to sway your decisions?

Well these days I guess I'll pretty much date anyone who will have me...

I have been happily married to such a person for 24 years. We simply respect each other's right to believe as we choose.

I think a lot of times people who identify as "Christian" aren't really practicing Christians. They may go to church regularly but seem to do that to keep their bases covered. I'm not talking about those who are in-your-face types. I run from those. I'm talking about those who act like everybody else, were raised in the church but aren't eaten up by it. They drink, smoke, cuss, are sexually active, whatever. You may be able get along with those types. Not Pentecostals or Jehovah's Witnesses and those types. No way.

Sure, if everything else was spot on. Why not. A date is a date, it's not a comment.

Dating - no. Religious people don't have the intelligence necessary for me to spend my time with them.

I married one but he wasn't really religious. No impact on why we divorced.

I’d be quite happy to go to their church, mosque, temple, whatever if I were invited but they would know quite early on that conversion is not my way because I am happy where I am.

Don’t see why not.

Um, because they're LYING.

@KKGator I know what you are saying but it doesn’t bother me at all, I’ve been in and out of religious ideas all my life so we wouldn’t be going anywhere I’ve not been before.

I am happy with my relationship with me so don’t need to bother with the rest. Its like do I eat chocolate or ice cream or neither.

A bit of variety seems to work for me!
