Re: Atheists, would you get into a relationship with an evolution denier/creationist?I would accept somebody with mild religious views, of preferably just curiosity, but anybody who was a fundamentalist would be completely intellectually non compatible. For the same reasons as I wouldn't go out with any other flavour of idiot really

Re: Atheists, would you get into a relationship with an evolution denier/creationist?I know a guy that dates a Catholic Girl, who believes in creationsim and goes to confession. Let's say those confessions must be pretty awkward for the Preist...(Original post by a.partridge)

Re: Atheists, would you get into a relationship with an evolution denier/creationist?I am a very strong atheist and have actually been in a situation where I've been friends to and in love with a fundamental (yet friendly and tolerant
) christian girl and decided to distance myself from her (i.e. end the friendship) since I felt that my rational reasoning and views would never get along with the nonsense she was spreading

Re: Atheists, would you get into a relationship with an evolution denier/creationist?I doubt I'd be able to handle that - religious fine, but so fundamentalist as to believe in creationism? I'd end up going insane.

Re: Atheists, would you get into a relationship with an evolution denier/creationist?I would just show them the relevant information and if they still somehow denied it, I would know they are not quite right in the head
but if they were not quite right in the head, I probably would know beforehand already and wouldn't have even gotten to the friend stage yet -

Re: Atheists, would you get into a relationship with an evolution denier/creationist?I would have to say no, what could we possibly have in common, relationships can be hard work even if your views are similar. I would even find it hard to have a relationship with someone with diametric political views.
