I don't think God likes Christian/Atheist dating. Sure good things can come from it, but God can use any situation for His will. Even a mere dating relationship like that is unequal yoking."Dating" is a sore subject for me, since the views my parents forced onto me about it really screwed me up and left me absolutely unprepared for a relationship. I now tend to see dating as A) practice for marriage,
learning what kinds of traits etc you need/can't stand, C) seeing if the person is the mate God has intended for you. My parents stressed the last point overly, basically stating that if I was not in a position where I could potentially marry the person, I had no business dating her. I now strongly disagree with that, and somewhat mourn the potential relationships I could have deepened over the years.At the same time, I say, the meaningless, self-serving, mostly physical, garbage dating that the world tries to pawn off as "relationships" are extremely harmful and dangerous, and should be avoided like the plague by a Christian. It should be very easy to see the differnce between a Christiand and non-Christian dating relationship.Which, is why a Christian/Atheist relationship is not a good thing. The only things a Christian and Atheist can share are A) Superficial things, which can be shared in a friendship relationship, and
physical intimacy, which has little or no place (depending on the level) in anything but marriage. Dating is experiencing and sharing things on a level that requires the same common foundation...Christ.
