I don't believe that it is right to date outside of you belief becasue it can cause many conflict, the bible says "not to be yoke together with unbelievers" and it also tells us to "come out from among them.

I trust nothing that teach separation. This is the nature of mind control. Each individual should be able to choose what is right from them without coercive influence.
What you speak in your question subverts free will.

Thats true but I believe that sometimes God puts us with unbelievers so we can be a good example and win them for Christ... If all the believers hung out with believers then what good are we? Reach out and find someone lost and nurture them and care for them and show them the word by being a doer and example... Jesus hung out with people that no one would talk to and in the mean time just looked what happened.. Those men are the disciples who went out into the world and preached and changed the face of Christianity to be what it is today... So don't turn your back.. There are plenty of Bible verses that support this also.. Being Yoked..to me is being married.... If your fiancee isn't converted by the time you get married then don't yoke with that person...Just one person can be responsible for caring for another lost person and in the meantime change the world and bring many to salvation

I am not agree with Christian date unbelievers, but I know a lot of situation when God worked through the Christian to save the unbeliever after they get married.

the bible says "not to be yoke together with unbelievers"
Then throw away that Bible and get the one which has the real wisdom of christ. Just imagine if Jesus had said, "You don't believe in me or like me? Then go jump of a hill you stupid jerk!" ... Jesus never looked at anybodys religion or motivation before loving them unconditionally nor did he try to 'convert' anyone.

Yes it is true what you have said. 2nd Cor. 6:14
You must be strong in the Word of God, and it is not a bad thing to date someone who does not believe in Christ, BUT when they start to influence you against God, RUN away from them, DO NOT WALK. many people have BEEN led to Christ that was NOT a believer this way. The danger is, if you find yourself doing what you know is not right, pretty soon if your Faith is not strong, you will also start to do these things. man is WEAK, and there are temptations, (sex for example) that will cause a man/woman to fall into sin. I believe you are asking this because you are the one dating the other person, and if I am wrong I apologize, BUT be careful as Temptation lies around every corner in this life.

As an atheist, I see this as a question about having a relationship with someone whose fundamental view of the world is different from yours. At best, you both learn to see things from a new perspective. At worst, you find your views so irreconcilable that you spend your time in constant conflict.
It can work, but it's much harder than a relationship of two people who do or don't believe.

I have dated men other then Christian and it was not a problem because they believed, whatever it was they believed into something. I tried to date unbelievers and it's useless, there is an arrogance about them that is disconcerting.

Yes I think they should, it may open their minds to see outside the square to other peoples views : )

Listen dude...WHO CARES. I doubt God will throw you into the lake of fire for dating some unbeliever. from a religious perspective i BELIEVE in God and the bible, but i personally HATE him. What kind of loving-being would throw you in the fire for not believing in him and commiting to this way of life. the philosophies are ''believe in me, do as i say or i hurt you''.
F*ck God. Do what you want!..you get ONE LIFE..USE IT.

Avoiding such a relationship may be difficult, even painful, but it is the best course in order for one to have God’s continued blessing.
