if being christian is so important to you that you're going to put it on your dating profile, then i wish you the very best of luck but i would rather stay single than date you. i'm fully aware there are good people out there who are christians. and reserve the right to change my mind... but still.

Their bio says "traditional man/woman. christian", but they often behave like antichrists. They are shameless racists, loathe minorities, hate and mock other religions, support unfair treatment of people they think are inferior and don't deserve basic human rights How very christlike of them

As for conversation openers, it can be as good of a "I'll pass" indicator than "I'm not a racist, but" and "I asked AI..". Everything serves a purpose, I guess, and yes, sometimes the free market indeed does speak.

Trump ruined the term Christian by lying and claiming he is one. I follow the teachings of Christ. If that is true, then he is not going to try to have sex with you, because until marriage, that is adultery.

Lol you don't date men. Church and CrossFit you find with both men and women (as you know) but dudes loved posting pics of themselves posing with tigers. It was a thing. And it was as pathetic as it sounds. No idea if they're still doing it or not.

i have only ever loved one dog nearly that much and he was this giant bear of a sweetheart named yogi. fortunately yogi belonged to my best friend's family and i was living with them at the time. i cried so much when he crossed the rainbow bridge. but i don't think I'd date someone even for him.

true. but you can get a dog to love you with a bit of ham. you only get a cat to love you by consistency and respecting their boundaries. dogs are great but they're not living bs detectors like cats generally are.
