RE: Dating advice
I see this as a comunication problem , nothing more. Never imagined that someone could brake up because of religious views.

I recently ended an 11 year marriage, long story...but in short, she was hardcore christian and I'm an atheist, we were looking to have kids and well, that in itself created enough of a catalyst to really re-evaluate "us"... now, I'm dating a girl, who is a christian, and knows very well I'm an atheist.  She is not pushy at a all and I greatly appreciate that.  I do like her, but I'm concerned that this may be unfair to either one of us or both of us to let it continue. I'm not completely sure of what to do, and well... looking ot gather some thoughts.  the girl that I was married to is nothing like this girl, and so it's not the same in that situation, but nonetheless, I could us some input.

Being religious can be so vague.  I've found myself being with girls who called themselves Muslim or Christian but they don't even really follow the religion.  If whatever she cherrypicked out of Christianity doesn't bother you too much, and her believing in some supernatural stuff you don't believe in doesn't bother you that much then I don't think it's too much of a problem as long as you aren't in disagreement over anything either of you find really important in life.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

You need to get out more.

Priests tend not to be guilt ridden on the whole. Brimfull of self importance, maybe.

We've got no clue what the hell their religion is. Whatever it is, it must allow for incest.

Why would it be unfair?  If both of you know who the other is going in, you both chose your own level of involvement.  My wife and I are approaching our tenth anniversary this year.  Shes a believer...I'm not -just- a nonbeliever.  I'm more aggressive and vocal than all that.

It hasn't been a problem.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
