She's pretty introverted and I knew something was off about her so I just asked her if she was super religious or not, but apparently I didn't know this was normal at SMU. She had the churchy terminology/sentencing and everything and I was like wtf. What I do from here now?

Talk to her like a normal person? Religious people aren't aliens.

Look, if you don't believe in God, that's your deal. Just be reminded that the majority of people in the history of Earth have believed in some sort of God. That might be weird to you now, but it wasn't weird for the majority of humanity.

So the bottom line? They're not aliens. Stop treating them like they are, no matter how weird their beliefs are to you.

Nope, because my wife went to a school with the same acronyms, and it didn't stand for Southern Methodist University. I was wondering if they went to the same school.

We're probably better off believing in some God anyway because the alternative is knowing you will cease to exist... forever.

if you're trying to date a girl at SMU it's unlikely you have enough money to make her happy already, so i wouldn't sweat it that much

This is just a really big ad populum. Well meaning, maybe, but nonsense, and lacking consideration of context. It's not a binary setting: Just how religious is she? There's a range of involvement, and at some point, the capacity for romance, or even basic acquaintanceship, is made inert because of it.

It should go without saying that I'm not applying this of all religions or religious people, but since you made a blatant fallacy as a point, I'm still saying it ahead of time.

It's hard for me to gather your opinion. You ask what do you do.

Is her belief system a problem for you? Did you like her in every other way before that? Is there a particular reason it was brought up?

Either way, as long as you're not looking for a quick fuck religious girls are great. Congratulations.

Depends on what kind of religious they are. Repressed Catholic girls are a classic standby.

Religion isn't so rare that it's considered being in closet.
