I've met this great girl and I'm a little worried about it because she's a different religion than I am. I'm Agnostic and she considers herself a Christian. I don't know how devout she is but she seems to have an open mind. I guess I need some advice on how to handle this because I've never really had this problem before.
if youre an agnostic than it shouldn't matter to you what she believes..religion just isn't really an issue...if it is I would say youre a little more opinionated than an agnostic. however if youre concerned about her being hardcore about her beliefs and that being annoying within a relationship than i can deffinitly understand that... unless your concerned about her having a problem with your lack of belief...?
i am of the lakota belifes and pagan my bf is christian , but we both understand that as long as we are good ppl that it doesnt matter even if the other was Sekh or Muslim or What ever . if this Girl feels the same way about u and is willing to let that stand as who you are w/o saying that it will stand in the way then good and you must feel the same way or the two beilfs will colided and hurt the relationship trust me i know
bisexual is part of who we are , ad being christian well , it is how one is raised , for what i know they go hand in hand , i mean it is what one belives that gives the church power and if they are what they are then that sets a precidince in the church to open for that if it is a libral church
why is it even an issue? if you love each other, it doesn't matter what the other believes. you are still individuals, with free will and minds of your own. it's about how you are, not how you are labelled.
Oh.... That really doesn't answer THE question, but I don't really care if someone is gay, mormon or blue.
that is the point it shouldnt matter and if it does than that isnt going to work out , if it doesnt work out then the things clash , and fall apart . like a war , but there can be peace and love if they accept one another for what they are and what they belif w/o trying ot convert
Yeah, what one does shouldn't matter to others, as long as it isn't harm or some form of deception. I just think being bi-sexual and a Christian would be a major internal issue.
there's loads of gay christians. religious people tend to pick and choose which parts of their religion they actually follow. I love me some muslims who go get smashed and then chunk down a nice, big hot dog.
I'm worried about it potentially becoming an issue. There is no set system of what an Agnostic believes. There are, in fact, different types of Agnostics. I do not practice a highly ritualized, organized religion based on any type of sacred scripture or person. There's more about Agnosticism in the Atheist and Agnostic Forum. One worry I have about her being a Christian isn't necessarily the core of her beliefs. But I was a Christian once and I know that no matter how tolerant, permissive and accommodating a Christan is, there is still that belief that the ONLY way to "salvation" is through Christ. I happen to think Christ was a good man, but not divine in any sense. She and I are in the tentative, early stages of dating right now. I was just wondering if two different religious views can work in regards to respecting one another. Thanks
