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

I certainly would not blame a Christian for not to be in a relationship with a nonbeliever. There are deep fundamental differences there that can be very difficult to address and will likely lead to mutual resentment.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I couldn't be in a relationship with a believer, at least not a devout one and definitely not a fundamentalist....duh.
I also could never stand dating someone who didn't share my opinion of waffles

Most of them probably sit around momma's basement jerking off.

Hey, I'm not a xtian!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I would have a problem being in a relationship with a serious believer, in the long run. Fortunately, the Lord has blessed me with an almost universally atheist extended family with the occasional deist.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Well, as far as I know, occasional deists are produced when someone tries to grapple with theism by butchering philosophy

Ooooh.... count it!
We have to address this frigging "quiver full" business first. The idea that God can't overcome secularism, but people can breed like rabbits and brainwash them all. Then they win by numbers or something.

Oh, so that's where it's gone.
