I find it interesting how intolerant people can be of religious folks. And it's ironic, because Christians are the ones who are usually labled that way.

Like Crash said, don't go messing around trying to change her view on religion or her own spirituality. It would be just as disrespectful of you to do that to her as it would be for her to try to change you.

I honestly don't get why religion plays into your ONE MONTH OLD relationship all. The problem, like Blightfire mentioned, usually rears its head once you have children together. She will undoubtedly want to raise her children as Christians, which is understandable since she is one. You just have to decide whether this girl is someone you can see yourself with long-term. If so, you'd better start thinking about the future, because if you have a problem with your children going to church (and I've never understood why anyone would - even people who don't believe in God - but that's just me), then you might want to move along and try to find someone who shares your closed-mindedness about religion.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Actually Sass, I was referring to the general sense I'm getting from a lot of the non-religious posters in this thread, who seem to think that Christians have either somehow been brainwashed or they're just stupid. No one came right out and used the term "brainwashed" in this thread, but they might as well have. Examples:

Arainach...even if they claim to be OK with it and don't question your lack of going to church, is it worth going through life not really able to tell her how the world works you feel on some topics because you know it would crush her?

I really wasn't directing my comments at you.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
