Your argument is pointless. You presume to say what we believe is non-sensible in not having us enter into a relationship when you have no clue what we would define as a relationship! Furthermore, you also demonstrate of knowing nothing about what drives us. Not to mention, our definitions of love probably and sorely differ. Yet, in all of this I can only guarantee no lasting contentment or fulfillment.

Taking such a judgmental and absolutist approach to something as important (and revelatory) as the human experience of Love is not only a sad denial of a huge part of what life’s experience is but also a thoroughly un-Christian proposition. Jesus did not cast away the gentiles and unbelieving Jews because they didn’t agree with him on everything he thought. In fact, as I recall the point was rather the opposite. The passage the author included about “maybe you think you’ll convert them so it’s ok…” illustrates how he/she is missing the point of love completely. Stop questioning the divine will and plan of your creator God. If you find yourself at the cusp of a relationship with someone who you love for all the right reasons, but they don’t share your faith, why would you discount this providence; this twist of fate; this act of God and try to impose your own assumptive, non scriptural logic to the situation in conflict with what you are feeling. Recognize that if you choose not to pursue the relationship, it is because of YOUR fears and insecurities about YOUR OWN faith and its basis, and not your disapproval of their beliefs.
