In everything else, he is. He loves Bush, he supports the war, he goes to church activities at least 2-3 times a week (often more), most of his friends are so Christian they bow their heads in prayer prior to eating lunch in a cafeteria, he insists the world is something like 7000 years old, he objects the theory of evolution, he objects abortion, he thinks whites are a superior race and is against interracial marriage (although he does not go so far as to hate other races), he despises homosexuals and believes that all of them decided to be "that way," etc...
Is that not in the least conservative?
The sex is a significant part, and if the beliefs are the only thing holding it back...then it should be done with. Find the sex elsewhere's, there's plenty.
I have agree, I was sorta of in the same boat with a girl for 4.5 years though she wasn't quite that hardcore. It was something we both kind of agreed not to discuss. But the relationship eventually had to end for precisely that reason, when and if we were to have kids I didn't want them raised religiously but she did. This was not something that a compromise would solve for either of us.
So you either need to convince her that her religious beliefs are a joke(which will cause her to break up with you probably) or end it yourself. I would choose the latter.
But if you choose the former there are a lot of nice arguments on your side, like.....the fact that men and women have the same number of ribs. Good luck. :beer:
Definately.
Whether you choose to face it now, or put it off until later, either way it is an important issue that has to be discussed.
I think you two do need to discuss this sooner than later, before one of you starts to feel that the other has "forced" you to compromise.
You would think that if you believed in something (or lack thereof) that you would KNOW HOW TO SPELL IT!
If she's not pushing you to join church, worship her god, or telling you "you'll burn in hell if you don't believe" (I actually had a born-again teacher tell me that in school), don't worry about it. If you have activities you do by youself - gaming, bowling, whatever - without her, just consider it her "thing" she does by herself.
The only real problem I think you might face is regarding the wedding: I've never been a particular fan of Christian-style weddings, and you'll probably be stuck with her.

2nd, yes I am not a eng native so don't bug me on my writing plz. I tried my best.
I am 32 in case you wonder.
there are 2 things that bug me is I think this will become a major issue in the future, maybe I can't stand it or maybe she can't. Who know.
the 2nd one is we can't really share our view, her belief is a gary are to me. and I have to tried hard not to touch that gary area because I don't want to offence her belief.
So for the child thing, I will not allow her to influence. again, problem there.

I stopped going to church at 16 and didn't go since until I met my fiance who was strong in her Christian faith. I rejected it at first, but started going and enjoy going now and being involved serving. We had reached a crossroads in our relationship with talks of marriage in the future, and while never explicitly said, it was either me giving church another chance or finding another relationship. I wanted to raise my kids with good morals the Bible sets, as I was raised, and my fiance's argument was that me not going to church didn't make sense, yet wanting to teach it to my children. I'm 21 and we don't plan on kids for a while, but I feel I'm much happier now than I was before I started church again.
As others have said, you need to make a decision to work this our if you want to marry this girl or break it off as to not waste more of your time.
