What is your attitude to a guy who sticks to being down to earth, goes to church and silently prays in modesty? Modern culture seems to alienate themselves from the church while there are small pokets where people do go to church and keep their traditions. I am not talking to those who are Godfearing who would fall on their knees at every instance and try to prove themselves as some kind of holy people and walk around with religious symbols in your face. But a calm modest ones, who would want children baptized and go to church if not every Sunday then at least once in a while? (Image source:Tsar Nicholas II who was quite religious)

This app messes with the question. The details were changed by the app and it sticks out like a sore thumb in my profile. I am going to remove this question from my timeline and stop any conversation. I don't like it how they edit users questions however they want.

Turn on for me. I know they won't have sexual disease to worry about, that will try to make the marriage work, strong family background , not as likely to have an affair. If we have kids , they will have a foundation built on morals. If she is a real hottie, then that is just an extra bonus.
If it's an important part of your life and you're being reasonable about it, keep it up and don't change anything about it. Then the right people will find you attractive

A guy dedicated to his family and his work and his morals and takes pride in his culture and treats the homeless and disabled and isolated with kindness is attractive
A guy who hates Muslims or Jews or Hindus and is willing to vote for a racist liar simply because he opposes abortion is not attractive at all
And a women who believes everything her screens tell her is a turn off too. What is a turn on is someone who's a critical thinker and sees problems with both sides. If you think it's ok to use abortion as birth control and vote for people trying to legalize "post birth abortions" you maybe should look at yourself and see if conforming to the world a little to much.
@razzmatazz090 voting for an adulterous and openly racist and serially killing liar and tax evader and blasphemer and kidnapper and dictator and economics destroyer and social polarizer is worse than voting for somebody who supports abortion
Wow, you don't even know those things about him for sure and you're spreading that nonsense. even if he was all those things I guess you are perfect? I guess you don't have anything in your eye? You've never sinned? The way you are acting is literally like the Pharisees.
Ok, thanks for your two cents. I don't know if you're talking about me, I'm just pointing out that she's the one spreading information that she doesn't know if it's true, and I'm saying she's not perfect. I never said I was perfect nor did I take a moral high ground against any other person. For her to say which sins are worse than others just shows you how highly she thinks of herself. And don't worry I wasn't trying to turn you on anyways.
Alright so you are saying here that a guy can be religious. But he must listen to what you believe in. While God teaches us love everyone. God also teaches us that if someone hits you on one cheek, turn over the other one. In other words the "Hate" most likely is response.
Personally, I think that someone who has a religion or a spiritual connection with his faith isn't a bad person. So it couldn't be an issue or something that causes a problem in a relationship. Anyway, it depends on the girl you are dating. And even if you have feelings you have to understand that someone who loves you gonna accept you as you are (and it includes your beliefs and convictions).
Not at all, I really love Spirituality! Spirituality is an essence of peace for me! It gives me so much calmness I cannot even tell you!! So if you are getting a chance to date a Spiritual guy because you honestly will get positive vibes from him! Maybe I could be wrong, I am not saying that all spiritual guys could be good, they also must have pretty bad habits, but I have seen it that most of the spiritual guys have calmness in them!

Religion is not same as spirituality but it does work like that. We pray for Forgiveness and our God helps us giving strength to do our duty.
Anyone thats religious is a turn off for me. I don’t really agree with organized religion. Personal faith is great and all but organized religion he always seemed very cult-like to me. Everyone has a right to their own practice and beliefs though, I just wouldn’t choose to be with someone that were religious
tbh 99% of them are actually cults and play a huge role in geopolitics. But ultimately there is only one true church and faith that is different than the rest and can logical prove God’s existence and battle the lies of this world.
Organized or not. This organization has lasted at least 2K years so it has a strong foundation. And considering how this organization is modest and you don't have to pay really, only donations if you feel generous, and all teachings are relatable to life. Listen to the hearings. they talk about really interesting topics.
As long as they are religious for the right reasons- to be a good person, etc it’s not a turn off. I just dislike when people use religion as a front to be judge mental and have a “better than you” attitude.
@latarnd exactly. Someone who is truly spiritual and religious are only concerned with their own relationship with god and are not concerned with judging other people what they’re doing. But some people confuse being religious with being everyone’s moral cop.
If your very religious and follow the righteous path I can't see this being a problem Bit of course of your an atheist and happy to lean on the naughty side for excitement and pleasure Yes it can I obviously we the potential for heated arguments Have you tried going with him see what its all about Churches are quite social and welcoming I was a keen goer at one time
Christianity is all about kindness and that You follow rules sure but it's not like you're crazed. I'm chill and many people like me so it's like I dont see why it would turn off if another religious person was like me No I dont think it is
@Pliskin55 I'm honestly not ment for motherhood and I know this. But we also are not animals in wild who's sole purpose is to reproduce. I'm just here to help people, take care of my animals, and build a career that gives me an enjoyable life. It has nothing to do with natural selection because there is nothing wrong with not wanting my only purpose to be to make kids. If I ever change my mind I'd rather adopt and help a child that needs a home.
It’s why I have a lot of respect towards nuns. But a single woman choosing a career over a family especially if she doesn’t have God in her life plays in the transhumanist agenda like hipster wearing the same outfit to be unique.
@Pliskin55 religion is a lot about love and respect right? I have never mock people for there decision and love for religion or family. If starting a family is somthing you want I wish you all the best in the world. I do want a partner to be with, someone to share interests, and grow old with but my own children are just not a part of the family I want. I hope you can find happiness one day.
This also proves the bad guy/good guy preference. You can clearly see women want the bad boy , cursing, smack you around , always wanting to fight guys , and cheaters over the Christian , good guy that tries to do right, not curse, doesn't hit her, actually works a job, and doesn't cheat.
That is not what the question was about. And I am unsure how this response escalated. We have moved far away from initial question so I believe this is a good end mark.
You asked if religious guys are a turn off, I said yes and boom suddenly there are two religious guys in the comments somehow inferring nonreligious men are a bad dating choice. I did not escalate it but k. A good end mark indeed
Please be polite 888TheGreat. We don't attack them We are showing better examples of ourselves so they realize themselves how much worse they are. Don't attack. Just be better than that.
See, that's why I wouldn't date a religious person: this false sense of superiority. What makes me worse than you? I've just stated my opinion, I've not even said that I don't like religious people or that I think they are morally inferior.
I don't think I am though. At least not because I'm non-religious. Like I'm probably a better person than 888theGreat, but that's not a high bar to hit, most people are.
Well so in that case you will avoid them. Alright. But my suggestion. Make it clear to anyone who tries to hit on you. It will repel them like same polarity magnet.
If it's a girl, it depends on how religious she is. I won't date a fanatic.

if it's a girl... wait what does that have to do anything here. Also the level of how religious is described in description. Read before comment please. ^^
@hknmhmn4 If anything I implied that religious guys don’t want to date me. I said “couldn’t”, like they’re not an option, instead of “wouldn’t”, like they’re an option I don’t want.
