Would you be able to date someone with a very different religion? Would religion be a deciding factor in whether or not to date that person? Also, would you take into consideration what you would do if you did date them, and went onto have children?
I know for me this is not a huge deal, I was raised christian, but am agnostic now, and I feel as long as the other person has similar morals and values to me, I wouldn't care either way, but I know this is not the same for everyone, and I was wondering how you all felt on the subject.

I think as long as both partners are respectful of anothers religion/spirtual beliefs, then it wouldn't really matter to me...........I was raised Catholic but am agnostic now (Louise its scary, we are similar)
TJ[10:13 PM]: no not really..... it's all so.... like wow..... screw steps, you took a fuckin jet pack and strapped it on yourself and rocketed your way forward (thats my big bro)
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease
I'm a goddess on my knees
When you hurt, when you suffer
I'm your angel undercover
I've been numb, I'm revived
Can't say I'm not alive
You know I wouldn't want it any other way

Re: Discussion: Is religion an important factor in finding a partner?
Religion isn't an important factor to me since I am also agnostic. I was raised as Jewish but later realized a confusion about religion that lead me to being agnostic. I don't care what religion my partner is AS LONG as they do not impose it ONTO me. That is one thing I highly dislike.
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

Re: Discussion: Is religion an important factor in finding a partner?
I wouldn't turn down a date with someone just because of their religion but if they disrespected my views on what I believe then it would be over very quickly. If they can respect my views and I can respect theirs, then why allow that to keep you apart?

As long as it doesn't come in between us then I don't really care.
