religious leaders we see on tv.

In other words: you're on your own.

J-Date doesn't tout itself to be some instrument of divine intervention. It's just a site where Jewish singles can find other Jewish singles online. Some have been shown to find the loves of their lives and they get married.

Pretty straight forward.

But you're quite correct, Christian Mingle is throwing all of this God-talk out there. They're appealing to cultists.

What is there was another Christian singles site, would they get an endorsement from God too?

It's all about the money for these people, that's what religion is all about.

But, they seem to be saying that their service is somehow an instrument of God. I don't see why most Christians find the marketing of their faith highly offensive.

If they had head to toe gear trumpeting their faith, they would be seen as devout believers. If I wore stuff announcing my nonbelief, I would be viewed as aggressive and confrontational. Go figure.

People who have divorced know this.

Outsourcing the task just adds depth to the joke and frees up some God-time. Consider it as user generated content.

I think people are cruel sometimes, but I see no reason to blame God for it.

So I'm sorry about your struggle, which I hope is not as bad as my own.

Still, with scientific explanations set aside for the moment, the universe seems to be inherently funny and cruel and that serves as a personal interpretation for this century's headline:

"Breaking News: Clever primates discover gasoline, burn planet while watching Failblog "Ow, my balls".

Sorry. That was awful.

PT Barnum was right.

I'll post it again: If any man comes before you claiming to know the Mind and Intent of G'd, keep your hand firmly on your wallet and walk away quickly. That dude is either a liar, a crook, or a nutjob. In any case, you don't need to be mixed up with it.

None of the purity pledge people have an answer for "What if i don't meet the mate God intended for me until i'm 57? What then?"

And now it is 10-15 years later after the purity pledge, and a lot of Christian singles are getting desperate they make wonderful marks and you can always blame the customer on a dating site.

No Jews Welcome in their ad. I wonder if they would accept the Mormons, Amish, Scientology, etc. If they mentioned Muslims I am afraid they would immediately explode.

The name implies that no Jews, Muslims, atheist, Buddhists and other non Christians are welcomed in their website. I would be silly for me to join jewishsingles.com seeing as am not Jewish. Dont wait for them to explicitly say it, it's already in the name

We'll never get a date now!

taking advantage of the gullible. If God has an intended match for a person, fate alone would bring those two people together, without any worldly help.

I'm askin' too.

I would have FIRST HAD to state I don't believe in "oroganized religeon" where they want 10% of my income.

but Now I think it would be worth it...thought it was free according to some "friends"...lol

Is that sex for free costs more money." -PCIntern's father, mother, and many others

And in my experience, works both ways. I've had men (well, mostly one) cost me a ton of money.

I don't know anything about this service, but I don't see a problem with people wanting to seek out potential dating partners with a similar religious background. Personally, I'd rather fish out of the whole ocean rather than limit myself to a small estuary, but I can see how some Christians would find such a service useful.

who will tell them to get off their Ass and get a Job.

it is for those who tire of calling upon the Hand of the Lord at night.

but I see no problem with a dating site that promotes same interests. There are dating websites for all kinds, I saw one advertised not long ago that was for musicians only.



Not getting the problem here.

"Find god's match for you." So what did this supposedly all-powerful and omniscient deity do before the computer age?

Yeah, That is funny actually.

They make it seem like their site is sanctioned and aided by God.

For example, this is an endorsement that appears on their homepage:
As a follower of Jesus where do you find that right person, that one who is God’s will for your life? In the past as a Senior Pastor I have said, Find him or her in church. I still believe that but my definition of Church has expanded beyond four walls as I have become a friend and fan of Christian Mingle. God’s man for you ladies or God’s woman for you men may be in a church a thousand miles away; in the next city, or even in the same town. How do you find them? You log onto Christian Mingle.com and allow God to use this process to help you discover the person He has for you. Give God an opportunity to work through Christian Mingle.

I'm not even a believer, and I this really distorts faith.

I always ask myself that exact same thing when I see those stupid ads.

I'm 71 years old, married for 50 years, a great grandfather, and a confirmed opponent of organized religion of any type.

Maybe I'll send them an obscenity laden response to their solicitation just to fuck with them.

wouldn't want atheists infiltrating and running off with good christian women.....

I'd be a little wary.

is that people think that their invisible skyfather is going to protect them from scammers and psychos if they go to religion-oriented dating sites.

He can't do everything. He didn't stop America from making a Black man president. It boils the curdle of the bible thumping kind all the time.

screw around with someone not in your congregation where people will know about your fornications.

across the world that get like-minded people together. This is no different.

I could never see myself with a Republican, so I would love to remove them from the dating equation.

However, that is not the issue. The problem is the way they consistently use God as part of the sales pitch.

Give God an opportunity to work through Christian Mingle.?!?!?

eHarmony's also very Christian oriented.
