Christians to die out by diminished gene pool theory (sub-species)

[TubbyTubby]

I just happened upon this question in a christian forum;

"what do i do if i find myself keep being attracted to non-Christians, and in turn attracting them? I'd really like to know how to deal with this. 
my last one was an attractive Jewish guy who i see almost every day who has some random things in common with me. I have decided recently to avoid him. but it really got me thinking about this..."

And one of the replies..

"I had a lot of difficulty with that when I was younger. I don't anymore. I know that if I were to get into a relationship with an unbeliever, we'd have nothing fundamental in common. I want someone who I can talk to about the Lord's things, someone who can understand and appreciate those things. That's become more and more important to me - I suppose, in proportion to how important the Lord is to me. Sadly, I'm still single and haven't found a believer to marry, but at least now I know what I'm looking for in a wife."

Of course, backed up by ye olde scripture..

Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?" - 2 Corinthians 6:14.

So presumably, if they stay on this track, the interbreeding will eventually cause all sorts of genetic problems through lack of DNA variety. They could actually evolve into a subspecies all of their own, ironic really, being that they don't accept evolution. I would like to propose "Homo Deceptis" for their forthcoming seperation.

Couldn't the same be said for the fraction of atheists who do not want to be in relationships with believers?

Fair point, could well happen. I did my bit, married a Catholic, went to her church a couple of times and then led her to the open arms of apostasy. She wasn't that devout to be fair but I gave her the gentle nudge needed.

Fundamental christians are more likely to steer clear of any other group than atheists are I would think? It was only meant as jest although maybe some groups do suffer? Mormons?

This would be a problem if one were born into Christianity. We are all born 'unbelievers.' We all have to find our own path to Christ.

Well Muhammad and I are still waiting for you to find your path to Allah, Drich

Better than them dating the non-Christian and trying to 'change' them in the process, I suppose.

Then again, most of them do that anyway, so what's stopping them here?

If only this were so with other religions...
Some of the other faiths seem to follow a strict policy of breeding like locusts.

Mao Mao, you picking on our muzzo friends again! hehe

The numbers involved would be in the range of <50,000. So there are plenty of believers still to avoid issue.

We are seeing genetic problems, and serious ones at that, in some of the Amish communities, however.

And in some Jewish communities. The difference is that the Jews are smart enough to do routine genetic testing for couples.
