Jewish And Catholic Dating

It's interesting how modern dating services have influenced each other in recent years. With Catholic dating sites growing out of Jewish ones, and evangelical Christian sites creating services for people of other faiths, everyone seems to feed off of everyone else's experiences. For example, it was a Rabbi who invented speed dating a few years ago, to help conservative Jewish young people find each other. Yet now you can go to a speed dating site and find links to dating events for Buddhists, divorced people, and other religious or secular groups. Jewish online dating sites borrow methods from Christian ones, and so it goes.

One thing that many of these services have in common, though, is a pragmatism that some religious people might find disturbing. Jewish dating sites are often co-owned by those promoting similar sites for different religious groups. Someone hoping to find a life partner who shares the same deep commitment to a religious faith that they do might be skeptical if they see that the same company that owns their favorite Jewish site also operates a Muslim, Mormon and Catholic dating site. Someone who views their religion as the "true way" might not be inclined to trust a company that puts their religion on exactly the same footing as everyone else's, as though they were interchangeable.

Let's take two examples. The www.whispy.com website's Cultural Creative Web Directory tries to promote creative, helpful sites in all categories. On their "Religious Dating" page they have Mormon and Jewish dating sites listed right alongside Buddhist and Christian websites. What would an evangelical Christian or a devout Catholic make of that? Another set of sites isn't as broad in its religious sweep, but includes www.jewishmingle.com, www.christianmingle.com, and www.catholicmingle.com. Some people resent the fact that the Catholic site isn't considered part of the "Christian" one, while others don't think the Catholic site is nearly Catholic enough.

Now that young singles are using the internet more and more to find each other, this has presented a big business opportunity. But people visiting Catholic dating or other religious sites may understandably feel like it's the business that's important to these site owners, and not the religious principles. If a devout person considers their own religion unique, rather than interchangeable with other faiths, then they may object to a website that treats their religious viewpoint exactly the same as Buddhist, Christian, Islamic, or other sites.
