When it comes to dating, I know and understand that it's all about preferences. But what i don't understand is when someone start avoiding certain people based on the stereotyping implanted in their head by media or society or parents. I NEVER think it's fair at all why many people don't even try to get to know a person further before making any judgement aside. Yes, i gotta admit, i'm a human myself that we can't ignore our very 1st impression towards someone but then don't you think that we need to give everybody a chance to prove themselves? Thats what implanted in our head by society or even our own parents aren't good at all SOMETIMES or MANY TIMES??
I was chatting with a friend on MSN. She told me that her parents didn't mind whomever she dated or married later on, BUT her parents specifically advise her not to date non Christians?. then i asked her why??? she herself can't answer, she just knew that her parents wouldn't prefered it so now she just had to date someone else whom are in the same religion. If i'm that dude, I would be pist and dissapointed!
Apologise for being too blunt.

Let Ps.Alan explain preach/explain it. haha
Let me give you an example. Imagine a glass of water HALF filled and there is another Teh Tarik KAU KAU in another glass.
Water - Pure, healthy and fresh
Teh Tarik - Sweet, Tasty, KAU KAU
Wat happens when you mix the Water and Teh Tarik into one glass? It becomes very diluted, stale, and no one would approve the taste.
Likewise, in marriage, two different persons will become ONE and therefore, there is a possibility that it wouldn't be a sweet one. What would happen if both parties have DIFFERENT believes? Conflicts, arguements and miscommunications. This does not only apply on religion but also on individual's character and attitude.
I'm sure you'd feel much comfortable when you're having dinner with your date and BOTH of you have the same frequency in conversation. Would you like to marry someone that argues with you every night over lunch/dinner because of disagreement?
I rest my case. :)
Woots, I agree partly I look at the person's character not the religion. Religion does not determine your character.
If my character is bad then its bad if its good then its good. Yes difference in character may lead to diagreement but religion is not the caused of my bad-ass-ness.
Same character/religion do have conflict but I dont see them saying "we are drinking from the same cup".
When we date we fall in love with the persons character not the religion. I rest my case with due respect.
i agree with alan....
Please do not post racist remark! Annonymous post has been deleted
ok my turn, i dunno about this i wanna say something sensitive. I dunno y over the years i have hear this. My friends say dun prefer to date non Christians. But i dun hear non Christians say dun date Christians? This is what i experience. If i want to date a christian then my choice because i like him n not his religion. I agree with edmaestro if my date say we will have lots of argument because of my religion & thinking, then he is selfish. I dun mind dating other religion just dun use religion to justify my relationshop only then problem will come.
