I think that they are more likely to reject people who have inconsistencies in their questionnaire, aren't interested in marriage, or appear hopelessly cynical.

I guess that's Xian code for "they got sued and lost because their practices were discriminatory." Sounds kind of like those "activist judges" in California who had the gall to declare Prop 22 unconstitutional. Wacky! I LOVE it when Xians replace law and logic with their ominous-sounding propaganda catch-phrases! Oh to live in such a simple world...[sigh] la la la la la ho hum la la la ta da la la “Cave into the homosexual agenda?” ???

My boyfriend tried to sign up a few years back, before we were dating, and he was either rejected because he was an atheist or there was no option for the non-religious crowd when/if they asked for religious affiliation.

That's just code for "I'm lazy or scared of facing my own hypocrisy and I don't want to see it for myself for fear of losing all my assumptions about people I don't understand." FSM forbid you should try to learn about a situation for yourself. And for some reason I'm hearing this email read in Sarah Palin's voice in my head. Please make it stop...
