Would you consider dating a person with different religious beliefs?

If she didn't expect me to convert, sure.

I'm atheist and my girlfriend is Muslim.

No, I could never get along with anyone who believed in a god, not because they believe in a god, but because that kind of outlook clashes too violently with my own personality and beliefs. (subject to the strength of her religiousness)

Yes because I'm not a closed minded

Of course I would

It really depends on their personal viewpoint on religion in general. I could never and will never date someone who puts their own religion on some pedistal above and beyond everyone elses personal ideals and beliefs. Someone who has a genuine interest in understanding other religions, faiths, and lifestyles. In short anyone who doesn't let their religion get in the way of intellectual persuit and understanding is fine by me.

I personally have yet to find a single person who even somewhat comes close to having my personal beliefs, and I don't go around annoucing what they are. I make it a point not to talk about them unless someone asks. As they don't pertain to any sort of religious texts or spiritual teachings.

I'd consider dating a watermelon if I could get it to put out on the first date. :[grape_of_wrath

I have dated a woman before who had a different belief. It didn't last.

I ended up married to a wonderful woman with the same beliefs.

As long as both partys can get along . I don't see why not .

Yeah, sure. I wouldn't care as long she doesn't try to change my beliefs.

No. Because intolerance is fun.

Its kind of hard to find someone with the same beliefs as me. Not too many people are Omnitheists, especially here in the Bible Belt.

AS long as she has no problem celebrating Christmas, I'd have no problem.

This, she better not have a problem with mistletoe either;)

[spoiler] ok that was a lame attempt at humor [/spoiler]

I do....I'm an atheist and she's a Baptist. I thik it's funny how she tries to "Lead me to God".

dating sure to see where things would go.

and no i would not care if the girl was Jewish, Athiest, Muslim, Chrisitian, or whatever.

There's a certain level of respect to ones own personal beliefs i expect in the other, if the person is just an anti-muslim bigot, she would more then likely not be my friend even.

I am open to an inter-religious marriage, but i am leery about it. Now i know people here get all nervous when i say I'm gonna raise my kids to be Muslims as best as i can. as though i'm gonna brainwash them in the religion and they'll just end up being radicals or something. I was raised to be Muslim, but i was not denied knowledge of other religions or ideas. That's what i intend to do. I have a side, a set of morals, ethics, and behaviour that stems from my religion (Islam) and from without that i'll invariably bestow on my children.

Reason i get leery with inter-religious marriage is that the faith is very weak when i meet friends and strangers who are kids of inter-religious marriages. I don't want to have that arguement of who'se going to heaven or hell for believing this (because mom is Christian/Athiest/whatever) and dad is Muslim. or who'se family were going to visit on the holidays. stuff like that.

one plus thing at least... there are 1.5 billion Muslims in the world, at least little over half are female, and then you got the wide variance in backgrounds from around the world.

Depends, be very careful with Muslim women. Never doing that again. Her parents went ape poop.

Does not bother me.

I'd have to considering atheists make up a small amount of the population still. I'd never date a radical or fundamentalist, though: I dont need saving, and I dont need to be reminded im going to hell

I don't care what their religious beliefs are. So long as they don't care what mine are, all should be well.

I don't care what they believe in as long as they're not the crazy fanatic type.
