No, I don't here in Germany. Growing up my dad was a deacon and Sunday School teacher
so I went pretty regularly.

I've seen a lot of churches in different places...if you don't find the right church home then
you won't get that sense of community that kids can develop in.

Bigger churches can sometimes seem a little impersonal...that's probably why newer churches
are started all the time. It really comes down to the leadership, organization and individual efforts
of the community, otherwise you might not feel like it's a church you can call home.

The Catholics still do it. The Jewish community does a pretty good job. If you're not finding it,
just send your kids to a Catholic school:-)

I agree. This, Taoism, Pantheism, etc are what I would call spiritual. And I much prefer those women as opposed to Catholics, Christians, Muslims, or Atheists.

It is difficult to use religion to create an airtight screening process as you will find exceptions (good and bad) in each religion. And other factors will often trump religion.

For LTR: the pleasant, slightly conservative Indian (Hindu) girl, Maybe (althought these are incredibly hard to find); but the Hindu girl who is an SJW freak, or one who fucks up an Uber driver's car, hell no.

I know two self-proclaimed spiritual girls who smoke pot, one regularly and one occasionally. Both smoke cigarettes. I don't do drugs and I don't smoke so I would reject both for an LTR.

But a smoker probably won't care about the cigarettes. He may not care about the drugs either so he will date either 1 or 2, but if he doesn't like the fact that she does drugs, he will reject 1 and go with 2.

These days the red flags come in so fast and furious that I don't even need to bring up religion.

Recent Example: I was just introduced to a girl last week. 35 years old; admitted that she had been on Tinder for all of 2015 and was "tired" of it; blue hair; and from now she was "determined to be more selective about who she sleeps with." She was looking to "settle down" and deserved a "great guy" because... wait for it... she has an "awesome personality."

It's almost like chicks know that we know they are sluts so they don't even pretend any more. I guess that's good in a way. You can screen out very quickly.

Upon hearing that, I finished my drink at the bar within 10 minutes, did a fake yawn, and just said, "Well, that was fun. I've got to get up early for work. Next time, let's just meet at your place." (I was so repulsed that I didn't even want to game her. It was Bang or Nothing).

Her face dropped. She realized that a potential Beta Bucks was leaving the building. What she didn't know was that she was talking to a person who had been reading RVF for over a year.

+1 for the forum (again).

I very much like Roosh's advice on what to say to a religious girl. In fact I do say something along the lines of "I'm not religious but I'm open minded and interested in religion".

I would never say "I'm an atheist". I can't stand the new type of Dawkins quoting militant atheist. It's as if atheism has become the latest religion, which is quite an oxymoron. But on the other hand I'm neither agnostic nor a believer.

I've dated religious and non religious girls and have detected no significant difference in how soon they put out, "outside wedlock". In fact religious girls can still be SNL easy in my experience.
