Would you date an atheist?

[imyourangel]

No... Gusto ko mature Christian kasi.

napaisip ako sa usaping eto. i don't know how to handle this kind of relationship if ever i'll be in relationship with an atheist.
i am a non practicing catholic but since birth i believed that there is really GOD.
i had a chinese female friend before, she is an atheist,
but i like her because she has good manners and right conducts and sensitive about other people's feelings.
she has conscience. i cant find any flaws sa kanya. but to answer the topic, yes, i might give it a try if ever i'll get the chance

[chicafabulosa]

Nope.. Not in my wildest dreams. I have atheist friends and honestly di ko feel the way they think about God. But I must admit not all atheist are open minded like what the thread starter claimed coz some of my friends are very close minded and are not open to other's idea or opinion.

I don't want to make my relationship by dating and having daily or frequent argument with him just because I believe in God. I am not a strict practicing Catholic but I don't want to argue about religion either, it is a very tricky subject to argue. Plus, I don't want to doubt my faith as well. No matter how strong your faith if you will have a relationship with an Atheist, eventually you would somehow doubt your faith one way or another. And I don't want my relationship with God to suffer because I dated an Atheist.

Mahirap nga itong sitwasyon na ito. Siguro depende na din kung anong klaseng tao siya. Sa ugali malalaman yan hindi naman siguro sa paniniwala. Para sakin hindi ko kayang i date yun mga purist na atheist. Yun bang kailangan nila i feed sayo un belief nila. Same thing na hindi ko din kayang i date ang purist na mga christians.

Malaking adjustment lang talaga atunderstanding sa isat isa pag kinasal na kayo kase different ang beliefs ninyo pero kung love naman ninyo ang isat isa siguro magagawa naman ng paraan.

Probably. I'm sure marami siyang mashishare sa akin na bagong kaalaman... and I'm not a Catholic myself. I'm Agnostic so mas madali para sa akin na tanggapin na wala siyang pinaniniwalaang God. Kanya kanyang desisyon lang yan, walang basagan ng trip. LOL

[Jon24]

^ That girl's funny. haha. Tama, walang basagan ng trip!

[meisaia]

i remember my boyfriend asking me, "bakit hindi ka nagsisimba?"

and i told him, "kesa naman magsimba ako tapos gumawa ako ng masama sa kapwa ko edi hindi na lang ako magsisimba tapos gagawa na lang ako ng mabuti."

[LoSiNGGRiP]

^oo nga naman. i like that!

[lovemeagain30]

well being a religious believer is more than going to church every Sunday. for catholics and God believers, we know why we attend or do worships though we are guilty of making the same mistakes everyday of our lives.

regarding dating an aethist, siguro if i have long time goal (lets say marriage and having family) with this man, my take is No. bakit pako magsasayang ng panahon di ba? pero kung for fun and experience, siguro yes.

factor ng sagot ko ay dahil catholic ako and i choose to be one. i would like to see myself sharing the same faith with him and the family i will have. siguro sa iba sasabihin nila sarado ang isipan ko sa ganito pero one point in your life, you have to choose. black or white lang yan eh. hindi pede nasa gray area. i believe aethist choose not to believe on anything about God and i respect them for that but to live with that person for the rest of my life -- that is a different story. 

[amy farrah fowler]

why not?  at least you won't be discussing tedious religious issues. 

[AILM]

Definitely no. Because it is God who bless each relationship.

[molybdenumstudios]

I won't mind dating an atheist, for as long as he respects the religion of other people, but I'd rather date an agnostic person, or a non-religious theist.

[Girltalker2]

Before I met my BF, naisip ko nga dati kahit anong religion.  Basta he respects you, mabuting tao at hindi sinungaling. So I guess ok lang ang atheist, so long as hindi hard core atheist such that when you go to church ayaw din nya.

But now that I have met my BF, he is a practicing Catholic na ang dami kong natutunan na hindi ko alam before (kahit na 17 years ako nag aral ng Religion).   And we go to church together, we share our thoughts also. Nakikita ko ang mabuti nyang asal.  But I am so glad we celebrate Christmas together and so much more things to celebrate together since pareho ang religion namin.

I have friends that are Agnostic, meron nanligaw saken na Atheist pero di ko na inentertain I want a bf/husband that I am able to share my faith and values with. Meron akong Catholic upbringing so I want my partner in life na ganon rin, basta for me napakahassle na makisama sa isang tao na kakaiba ang paniniwala sayo ito ay based sa aking experience and opinion lang naman of course sa iba baka nagwork pero saken personally I prefer na lang na parehas kame ng religion.
