I never had that problem while dating. Everyone knew what I believed before they got with me, and actually it was them that kept their spirituality secret from me. Every long relationship I've ever been in had led them to abandon their previous faith without me ever trying to get them to. Once people start to think logically it isn't long until unreasonable ideas are tossed out. I would also not purposely step into a relationship if I was aware of them being strict bible thumpers, although personal spirituality is fine with me, but many Christians seem to think it's their duty to be loud outspoken pesky mosquitoes.... I'd prefer a Pagan or Buddhist or anyone that isn't taught that it is acceptable to preach their delusions to nonbelievers, if I had to date a spiritual sort.

Thinking it still tends to influence one's behavior.

Overly general statement. Does not consider intrusive thoughts for example. Statement valid when suitably constrained.

Lack of respect for what one desires leads to underestimating and undervaluing it. Never a good idea to care less for what one supposedly desires.

Bitch is like fuck. It's malleable. It can have a good connotation or a bad. If I say that's a mad bitch. That a good thing for example, she's sexy. Saying that stupid bitch right there...that's a negative connotation.

I've never been one to cuss much at all. I just don't find much use for it, but that's probably my parents doing. I do use them when I'm extremely angry, but don't really consider hell, damn, bitch, ass or shit as all that bad.... I suppose that is most of them though.

I'm a brand new atheist so I don't know exactly the way this is done yet, but if you don't get your dating advice from the bible where are you supposed to get it from?

Last time I checked I could rape a bitch and pay her father her bride price and I wouldn't be able to divorce her ever. That's Deuteronomy 22:28 if I remember correctly.

Just stop it now, Eye of God. It's not funny anymore....
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech
