Do people who let religion guide their relationships and romantic lives freak you out? (marriage, guys)

Their religious guide in relationships wouldn't bother me. I'm for it. However, people in my generation who are like that are a minority since most young people today are promiscuous.
Anyone who lets religion guide their relationships is not the right person for me. I'm glad to find out about this upfront so I can say "thanks but no thanks" and move on to someone more appropriate.
Well... if they throw in a "god bless" into all their greetings and farewells, if they wear a cross hanging from a necklace around their neck... that would be a good indication of being too christian for me. If they can't go to autocross events on Sunday mornings, that would be another indication of their faith. [b]Also, having a Jesus fish emblem on their car or a pro-life bumper stick[/B]er.
Which reminds me, I still need to get a couple of Darwin fish for my cars.
I know plenty of christians and none of them do the above bolded...
I'll just bet you have christian friends and don't even know it....LOL
If an ardent churchgoer, who does not even practice what is preached (seems all they do is talk the talk), cannot respect that God is Personal (to me), I must say "Adios!" altogether.
It seems to me that people who are guided strictly by someone else pastors, preachers, cardinals, imans, popes ect all of their lives tend to be sexually repressive to some degree. I don't know if it is a coincedence or what, but it is just an observation. I can understand the limitations on premarital sex but once they get married the gloves should be off, but then you realize that there are no hands.

That's why you put your faith and trust in God, not man
It only bothers me if I am in a relationship with them. Otherwise, they can do whatever the heck they want and it won't bother me. In fact, sometimes it amuses me.

Hi miu,
You're the same thing just for a different religion. I could go to a church and a cat house in the same day and retain my nature. That is to disagree with some of that church's position but enjoy a nice chat and not have sex in the cat house but enjoy a nice chat. I am comfortable with any one in general. I could not care less if Mormon or JWs stop by and sometimes take the time to debunk their position. I was happy to conjugate a Greek word for them to do it in one case. I am a Christian but it does not say a thing about building cathedrals. I suppose also I am less than usual as a preterist. I honestly don't know why we are here. Cogito ergo sum.
