June's not quite sure how to react. She is somewhat amazed, as she would never choose to not date someone simply because he was a believer. Why would she?

Do you find a Christian dating someone of a different religion wrong?
Yes, its wrong and is stated in the 1st and 2nd Testaments. Persons filled with the sprite of the Lord should not date persons that are not presently saved. Do not be yoked with a unbeliever.
Ditto, 2Cr 6:14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
Iam married to unbeliever and I wouldnt recommend it, however it is better to marry than burn.
If Christians are no less flawed or no more flawed than the rest of humanity who is then the light and who is the darkness?
Even when it is a cold hard fact that I am blessed with an ego that is 2x as large of that of most rockstars or other celebrities, I still would not compare myself to God.

Just because Christians refer to themselves as Christian doesn't mean they truly are Christian.
Yeez, now I'm almost confusing myself.
We are told we will know who they are, "by their fruit ye shall know them".
I could say I am a mermaid (I could'nt think of a good example LOL), but are you really going to believe me if I don't talk merman, have a fish tale, and can't swim?
Biblical Instructions Before Leaving Earth- the truth, it's all in here. Just read the book, you might gain a whole new perspective on how we are to live this life before meeting our maker. Your choice, believe or not to believe, that is the question.

No.....................Final Answer!
Indeed Betsey, but the natural man cannot just read it and understand it.
1Cr 2:14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.
You know someone's a Christian by how they live their life. I would think a person would get to know someone before marrying them. Sure, a person can fake it. But only for so long. Pray about it first and don't rush into it.
Oh, and to answer the original question, yes, it's wrong for a Christian to date someone of another religion or even no religion.
