I had a guy tell me this. We were interested in dating each other. And that subject came up. I didn't know what to think. I'm not religious and he was so had a gut feeling that weren't going to be compatible, I ended it. That was one of the issues I had with him that it wasn't gonna work out. It sucks because it's rare to get a man interested in going out with me

Was this post even necessary? You met someone you weren't compatible with, and all you're doing is judging.

I think you did the right thing. It doesn't mean you are right or he is right or that anyone is wrong. It just means that each of you views that subject differently and are not compatible.

This. His religious faith has little to do with it. It's the fact that there is likely no common ground in the relationship.

Agreed. The 2 of you weren't a match is all. I am sure there were some things about you he may not have liked.

Move on. There's no point in fixating on the guy, especially when you were finished with him back in Nov. 2015.

If this is the same guy.

He's religious. You're not. Fine. But, get over it, and stop judging months after you already cut him lose, and didn't think much of him when you met him.

No. You're not compatible, and seems you look down on him. Focus on another man.

Um, I wouldn't ever be in such situation because I exclusively dated fellow heathens. I dated some "spiritual" types, but they were NOT at all practitioners of organized religion. Only one guy who claimed to be new age-y seemed to hold contradictory beliefs, or beliefs that were not compatible with my world view. That ended.

I'm not really religious, but that comment wouldn't make me run for the hills. There are worse things that a man could say.

He would make a better guard. I think Paul was the tall one. He'd be the center. Jesus was quick on his feet and had better dribbling technique.

I'm a person of faith, but I'm not a fundamentalist. There's no way I could date someone who thought that way, chiefly because I didn't want the Bible being dragged into every disagreement, large and small.
