If their Christian Mingling makes them happy, I've no problem with it. It's not necessarily for everyone.
But yeah, they're a little sappy.

We've been getting a lot of ads for JDate.
J as in Jew. Or Jewish, if you prefer because you feel the word "Jew" sounds offensive, which I never can tell because so many people use it in both offensive & non-offensive ways. Anyway, I didn't mean in an offensive manner. But that's what the J in JDate stands for. JewDate. Their commercial spokesperson should be a typical Jewish mother saying: "Why don't you go find yourself a nice Jewish girl/boy??!" |

...or, as my roommate in the 80s was told by his Jewish mother:
"F*ck the shiksa, but marry a Jew."

I find it annoying when they try to co-opt things "regular" people do. Rock music, heavy metal music, night clubs, dating services... it's like they're trying to say "Look!!! You can be a Christian & still do stuff!!!" Just go to church & quit trying to suck up to the rest of us. |

The thing that gets me is if God has a specific person in mind for me to marry then I should just hang back and let fate take its course right? Wrong! You need to pay for a website in order for you to meet your chosen mate. It's just ridiculous and takes advantage of people.

Does kinda fly in the face of that whole "Put your trust in Jesus" thing, doesn't it? I'm sure that if you brought that to their attention, they'd come up with a way to rationalize & justify it using some scripture. They always do. |

I'm not sure what version of Christianity says that sort of thing. I can only guess it's the same one that says you don't have to do anything to put food on the table, and once it's there, you don't have to do anything to put it in your mouth or chew it and swallow it and digest it, as God will make that all magically happen.
The religion you two are talking about sounds more like witchcraft.

That reminds me of when Tommy's mom asked him that (sans the Jewish part) in Goodfellas: "I get a nice one almost every night, Ma!" |

You have apparently not been exposed to many evangelical, fundamentalist, "born again" Christians. The examples you cited about food & eating, etc., are absurd, but not all that far beyond what these people believe. No, they don't claim that food will magically materialize out of thin air (although the Bible claims Jesus made that happen) or that it will jump in your mouth & chew itself, but they do claim thîngs like, if you are flat broke, poor & destitute, without a penny to your name, about to be evicted from your home & have your car repossessed, that all you have to do is have faith in Jesus & money will appear. The whole message is about relinquishing control of your life & turning it over to Jesus. Not placing any trust whatsoever in your own judgements or those of other people. So, the same should hold true for dating & finding a compatible mate. Just sit back & wait until Jesus sends someone your way. And yes, that DOES sound like witchcraft. |

I like the commercial where the couple gives the specific date of their marriage, but then says their son was born the following April (no specific date given). I joke with my Husband that they conceived before they got married, because they don't give a date. God wouldn't like it, now would he/she/it?

Matthew 6:24 “No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and money" -A passage which Christian Mingle has gainfully ignored |

They would say something stupid. I like how one of the couples says the date they got married and then the date they had a kid. It's like 9 months to the day from when they got married. Sometimes I think they get married just so they can have sex. Although I would think that somebody wasn't a virgin on their wedding night because it is unusual to get pregnant the first time.

I think the Christian Mingle threads have some of the funniest comments on this whole forum.
