Okay obviously I need to clarify somethings. I have no problem dating someone who does not believe that I believe. The majority of the people I a around are christians and that is why I asked the question.

Im christian... but a lousy one as my parents would say. i've dated athiests before and it never really made a huge difference in the relationship... but i guess for girls who are Christian, the right thing to do to be a "strong" christian would be to leave someone you love because of such a big difference. Its just a theory, lol im not sure. All i know is my parents are hardcore catholic and they wouldn't have it any other way but i see there as being many options and if a girl cant just love you for you, and she's worrying about what your view of God is... then she's not the right one! Good luck and i hope you find a keeper! :D

Because If she is a Strong Christian she has read her Bible and knows what 2 Corinthians 6:14 has to say
"Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?"
That is why you cannot find a date with a Strong Christian.
In the Christian faith the men are the spiritual leaders, she would feel the need to submit to your authority and could not because of your differing beliefs systems. If I were you I would ask one of your "hopefuls" why they believe what they do. saying that you will listing and think about those reason if they will listen to why you don't believe that God exist.
go ahead and use me for a sound board emails free.
I would be happy to listen to why you believe that way because you must believe very strongly to say that you think that there is no God.

hi! maybe because you question their beliefs? or maybe because you're too strong of an atheist to date. either way i dont see why it'd matter, i make things work and i'm an agnostic (and that is even worse to some eye's than an atheist) i can't handle either two, to be honest, well those that push their believes on you since its "the only way to live"
i can talk to guys about my opinions without getting my head chopped (by either, theist or atheist) but my best friend tends to get his head chopped off for talking about his opinions. why? maybe because i don't judge the other's perspective, unlike antoine. and i say that i'm an agnostic because i don't know and to be constantly questioning is more of a life for me, maybe not for you or theist. either way, i dont see why it even matters if the girl is a theist or not. as long as you love/like/lust her.

At some point, it becomes hard, if a believer continues to go on with the Lord. Some believers have seen something that resonates within them and they can't ignore it. It's not being religious but actually something a lot deeper than that. It doesn't have to be anything against you. And it doesn't mean anything weak about a believer's faith if they decide to not be with you.

If they are actually a very strong Christian then they would never want to date you. It says in the bible that Christians are not supposed to have close relationships with non-Christians. The parable in the bible is this.....Do the light and the dark mix, Does Jesus go for a walk with the devil? Something to that extent.......So if you were to date a Christian, she wouldnt be a strong one.

What you really need is a christian that is weak enough to date an athesit. Who wants to be with someone who by intension directly or indirectly challenges your beliefs. Why dont i put it to you like this, Why wont brave mice jump into the snake pit? Get real, your expecting a strong christian to love a god basher? Find another atheist, and stop shopping for a fake christian.

There is a saying in the bible that tells Christians to avoid becoming "unequally yoked"....Why, as an atheist, would you want to date someone who has totally different views as you?? I don't think it makes a Christian any less strong...they just chose to be with someone who is going to make their lives easier and help their faith along instead of constantly challenging it. I know I wouldn't want to live that kind of life.

Religion is a strong thing... people who belive so strongly about their religion belie that everyone is anoher religion or who doesnt belive in anyhting are the work of the devil.
So Many Christians wont date you because you truly are the work of the devil...well to them.
So it is going to be hard for you to find a really strong Christian if you dont belive their religion.

Why are you looking for a christian? If christian women don't want you then just look for someone's personality. Faith shouldn't get in the way of your judgment.
