Author Jame22 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 I don't date church goers I find organized religion a scary concept all though I do respect the charity and social network it provides for some people. Totally out of line. Why don't you ask her to go to a lecture about Atheism and see if she would be interested in a weekly round table discussion on that? If she is trying to get you to go after one date, RUN. I think I'm going to go anyway..bad idea yes, but people make bad decisions all the but I already agreed (if the next 2 dates go well) My best friend since childhood is a relatively active Catholic. Not once has he tried to take me to church..I don't even know if he knows I'm an atheist, but I have a lot of respect for him for never bringing it up.
Author Jame22 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 You know you don't have to be religious to go to church with someone. There's no sign on the door that says ye must believe in god to enter this place. I've been to a few events at a Jewish temple before and it certainly doesn't make me Jewish. You're not dealing with Islam where everyone in the world needs to be a believer and infidels are unclean. Who knows whether she's trying to convert you or is just looking for a boyfriend to go with and is letting you know. If you're not willing to compromise and go even once you might as well let her find someone who will though. it's crossed my mind that her ex goes to her church and she's looking for some leverage or something. I OVER-ANALYZE EVERYTHING

Most catholics are not strongly evangelical, so the push to christianity is not surprising.
Author Jame22 Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 (edited) You know how someone says, of course this is AFTER the dating relationship ends dreadfully, "You're picking the wrong men". I'm not sure why she would date an ATHEIST in the first place, to tick off the single Christian men in her church? LOL but she has a pretty smile so....... Edited January 21, 2014 by Jame22
