Can a man and woman of two different faiths get along? What about an atheist and a religious person?

Question

If you are a Christian would you date and atheist and vice versa?

Answer 1

Yes it is entirely possible if both people respect each other as individuals and accept the other completely for who they are. I am a Muslim that is engaged to a Christian, we both love each other like crazy, I knew who she was and what she believed and I respected that and she did the same so all that matters is we love each other.. As for atheist and religious people same thing as long as the respect is there. I have many atheist friends and we are like family with each other. The key isn't a similar belief but respect...two people could belief the same thing but if they don't respect each other they will fall apart. Two people can believe totally different things but as long as they respect each other they will get along just fine.

Answer 2

i actually believe maximum of what you're saying. purely a notice even with the undeniable fact that, Catholicism preaches that's mandatory to do the perfect element in accordance on your experience of right and incorrect, as properly because of the fact the implications. So i think of the church could desire to take transport of that credit first. yet different than that, I even have many times puzzled the comparable issues. Watch the action picture "Heaven and Earth" that's definitely ideal. This action picture has top rate cinematography and mentions the assumption of karma (greater specifically how undesirable issues take place to good human beings, and what we can do if this occurs to us...study or resent?) i actually ask your self the comparable issues as you specifically cases, and that i too am a Catholic raised, yet open minded guy or woman. xx

Answer 3

Yes they can get along.

No I wouldn't date an atheist. ( no offense meant here) 2Corinthians 6:14"says do not be bound together with unbelievers....." in other words don't be unequally "yoked".

Picture "yoking" together two oxen of different strengths, they would always be pulling differently, fighting against each other and not getting anything accomplished.

If you are a single Christian, dating would or could lead to marriage. So why date someone you wouldn't marry?

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

I am a christian and No I don't think a relationship with an antheist would be healthy or long lasting. I would be friends with them, I just wouldn't date them. There would be no reason for me to try to date someone with different religious beliefs than mine. I want my husband/boyfriend to have the same religious background as mine. That's my preference. But everyone is subject to his or her opinion!

Answer 5

I am agnostic, my husband is non denominational. Seems to work fine, religion is not one of the many things we argue about. He has enough respect for me to not try and change my mind and vice versa.

Answer 6

I am an Atheist and I'm happily married to a Southern Baptist and have been so for close to 30 years.

Answer 7

they may beable to get along in a work place enviroment...but not as a couple...it's black and white, water and oil...they don't mix at all....besides God clearly states that one should not be "unequally yoked together" which has been interpreted to mean different religions...or even cultures...i don't necessarily agree with that statement though. I think it all depends on how serious you want to pursue a religion...it's easier to be married to a crazy bible thumper if you are one yourself, right?

Answer 8

Yes, but only if neither person tries to force their views on the other. If you honestly can have a 'live and let live' deal, then it can work. But proselytizing your partner won't work.

Answer 9

I would never date outside my religion or an atheist. If its a casual relationship, its OK, but for dating or marriage I wouldn't recommend it.

Answer 10

well i dated a athiest and im a christian, when he told me after 2 years i broke up with him. i needed a christian guy. but that was shallow of me.
