Would you date a Christian person?



 Be honest.
I'm seriously looking at covenanting for life to look after and be looked after a faith-based international communal fellowship of Bible-believing people. They live like this to follow the original Way that the first believers in the Son of God lived instead of what became of this Way as it was replaced by elements of other religions and cultures. They only consider marrying the other people in the group who have also covenanted never to leave nor forsake each other the way the Son of God implemented when He told His Disciples He would never leave nor forsake them and to Love each other as He had Loved them.

That's a good question, But let God do the judging.   

Let us show God's is love, to everyone on here and every one we meet. i'll suppose that you're telling the truth, which, i'm sure you're not, simply by a few of the tells in your message. i'll suppose as such because your imaginary situation is possible.
i don't believe christians are necessarily idiots, and not many taoists believe that at all. it's not very logical to say "creationist = idiot" because that implies a million and one presuppositions and a very very jaundiced psychological map.
you have to ask the question "why do they believe in creationism as opposed to evolutionism despite the fact that they've been thoroughly educated on evolution, and the fact that the world could not have possibly been created in 7 days 6000 years ago."
there can be a million answers, but the most prominant one is this: "it's too much work to find my own answer, and this one fits--if i die, and i'm right, wonderful. i go to heaven, if i'm wrong, oh well, i won't remember anyway. it's a good guidebook for morals, and keeps me doing the right thing. christianity has made me a better person."
does that make you an idiot? no, it just makes you weak in one area of development. who cares if you're weak in one area if you're strong in countless others. if you do good work, helping people, making the world a better place, that's really all that matters.
the conflict arises if you're pushing theocratic reform in government, that tries to subject the whole world to your ideology simply because you haven't got the mental reserves to focus on what you really believe happened in the beginning of it all, or when you're one of the loud voices screaming out against stem-cell research technology, or any other philosophically possibly morally objectionable science on the premise of a few verses in a book.
with all of these considerations in mind, i don't care that you don't accept the science on evolution, it doesn't effect me, and it doesn't effect any of us. it only effects you, and your personal psychological map. how you view the whole, how you interact with the people around you. date whoever you like.  and as for sex , if it works for them , then that is their business. i don't think you should assume everything in the bible to be literally truth. maybe you should ask him. he doesn't ''try to make them christian." god gave us free will, so we can choose to live in his light or sin against him. it's true he is in us all, it's just the fact that some people choose (free will) not to acknowledge a higher deity that gave us life. also, personally, i believe that when people are slipping away, which i've done myself, it's the devil working against us. i know that last part sounds weird but it's one of those things you need to think about and reflect on. To know will you be ever get to date JB if, my friend, god is as infinite as they say he is how then would we be able to grasp him at al any more than a cockroach is able to understand a man. a cockroach might feel the vibrations of the man but he does not comprehend him as a man. so humans create a story book about god which brings its believers into a standard conduct for social cohesion and as a means for people to more easily relate to each other since they have a rule book, and a rule book sanctioned by the almighty. i agree with you that the bible is full of contradictions as it came about from many writers with various perspectives which were later looked through--some dispelled as apocrapha and others rejected completely, and some few which actually got incorporated into the canon. as such it does not have much literary value; however a classical novel or poem should have a consistent theme to it in which the writer proves a perspective. my advise is to read literature and philosophy for truth, disgard the bible, and never take a look at popular literature like the davinci code which is worse than the bible because it distorts it for the purpose of confusing readers about the story of cohesion only for the purpose of earning the reader high royalties A. I’m very glad that you are asking these questions before you get married. You’ve listed a number of issues that make it difficult for a couple to have a mutually satisfying and happy sex life. Your fiance has suffered a traumatic sexual assault. Religious teachings from an early age may have taught her that sex outside of marriage is morally wrong. On top of that, she is just plain tired.


It is a positive comment on your sensitivity and love that you are seeking answers instead of just being upset or blaming. That speaks well for your relationship. Since the two of you have such a difficult time talking about sex, I think you need some help. A counselor can provide a safe place and guidance so that you can work this through. Since you both have a Christian background, a Christian couples counselor might be a good choice.



I wish you well.
