Intimidated seems to be the wrong word. It depends a lot on your personality and reputation, but by and large, guys avoid devout Christian chicks for two reasons.
1) They're a dead end, sexually. No guy in high school is looking for the girl he wants to raise a family with. He wants to fall in love, have fun, graduate, and then go out and explore what the world has to offer.
2) They can be a huge burden if they impose their morals and ethics on guys who live by different rules.
So it's really not intimidation-- it's that, at least to them, your religion makes you absolutely no fun.

Just make a list of guys you find attractive. Make a list from best to worst (worst of the best that is). Then, starting from the top of the list, approach each one individually and ask him whether he knows someone who might be interested in dating you.
I think you might learn that some of those guys have been afraid to ask you for a date, not because you are Christian, but because they think you are too good looking and smart for them, and they are afraid you will reject them and cause them embarrassment.
When you ask, if the guy seems lost for words, it might be because he's trying to quickly figure out how to tell you that he would be interested and still not risk the possibility that you will laugh at him and say something insulting such as-- not you stupid, I meant someone else. So, you need to help him out while he's in his stupor. Ask him if he might be one of those guys who might be interested. Then say, you know, just for maybe one date to see how it turns out. Watch for facial expressions. They tell a story. If his expression is sending a "go away' signal. Just wave him off, shake your head, and say forget I asked for your advice as you walk away.
I think this approach will give you an opportunity to feel him out and save face if he is not interested, and it will also give him an opportunity to respond favorably without fear of losing face if he's worried that you might be just toying with him.
What are you waiting for? Go for it.

Find a nice guy who has the same spiritual beliefs as you do. If they don't share your beliefs at least somewhat then you will not have that much in common with them in the end.
Find a nice guy at Church or through Christian sponsored activities. Trust me on this one. He will eventually come along.
Pray about it in the mean time. Not pray for it but pray for God's will for you. If a man is in the plan it will happen.

They are probably afraid of being proselytized.
I am a different religion than most people in my area (Buddhist), and rather content with it. I certainly would not want to go out on a date with someone who wants to tell me all about their religion, but not hear about mine. I get proselytized all the time, and politely telling them to go away doesn't always work.
I am not sure if this describes you or not. Intimidated? Probably not. Not wanting to get into a discussion about whose religion is "better"-more likely.

Why are they intimidated because you're a Christian?
But if you really want a date, I guess you'll have to take the first step. Ask a guy instead of waiting for him to ask you.

They're probably worried that your the "wifey material" girl and there looking for more of a fun outgoing chic who will get drunk with them and tehy probably think that your the honk if you love jesus type of girl and you'll never in a million years get into that christian girls pants. Show them your party girl side. Christian girls can party too!!

a lot of people are christian that date. so unless you are trying to force your personal beliefs on people, thats not it probably. are you shy or have trouble talking to guys? you're still young enough where i wouldn't worry about it. high school guys are sometimes jerks anyway

What school do you go to? I've never heard of that kind of discrimination, but hey if you're fine or I like you for some reason, I'll ask you out.
