I see dating profiles from atheist/agnostic liberals (and some who profess to have a faith) who express they are oh so tolerant. Then when it gets to the questions ‘are some religions more right than others’ and ‘could you be in a relationship with a partner who focuses their faith in their life” they say “NO”. Disagreement in political beliefs is another litmus test for them.

Just because you’re tolerant of somebody doesn’t mean you want to spend your life, or even any significant amount of time, with them. I couldn’t be in a relationship with a highly religious person, but I don’t mind that they exist.

I don't know that that's a valid test, though.

Where relationships are concerned, the fact that you wouldn’t say, date a black doesn't make you a racist.

Maybe you are not attracted to them. Maybe a few minutes with them shows you that your world-views are too far apart for a long-term relationship to work, and that's what you’re looking for.

And maybe you'd be wrong about that. But you would not be wrong to make your own relationship choices based on whatever criteria you choose, and it doesn't make you a racist or a bigot or even a conservative.
