I've been thinking, can you "pass" on a relationship due to musical differences? Say a girl is really into country, and its the only thing she listens to, and then guy loves punk rock. If they met, and were perfect together, besides this one thing, is there reason to say, hey, you are an awful person because you listen to country, i can't date you?
Or can you "pass" on dating if they aren't really into movies, but you are? Are these things important enough to determine our fate? Or how do we determine what is so important in a match? Blonde/brunette, smoker/athlete, christian/mormon, burping/farting?
I'm over clemping....this is my topic to discuss....discuss amongst the blog....

and by folks you mean me and steven. But i totally agree. I think there is no fence sitting when it comes to religion. I think it makes or breaks the relationship, and i do think that needs to be established right away, if not the second after right away.
I do think music is a good starter, and is something that's a good thing to have in common, but isn't a make or break deal. However, it would be harder than B A N A N A S to put up with kenny chesney for the rest of my life.
sam! You're alive! Hooray for Sam!
I think as far as the religion factor goes, i think utlimatly, it doesn't matter what denomination you are, just more so depends on your beliefs and how strong you are (kind of like sam said). I think it helps to be the same denomination because then the belief system is pretty much the same, so there shouldn't be any problems with that. But lets say one was evangelical, and the other was baptist, i think it could work. I do think it gets tricky though because when you have a family and kids and such, you don't want to divide your kids because that could confuse them on the whole subject of religion and and what faith really is. So i do think it could work well to be different denominations, but it is nice to kind of be on the same page. (and, different churches don't always mean different denominations).
