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.

This might not be regarded as an entirely good thing, though, by devoutly religious people. When Jewish matchmaking sites can be owned by the same company that promotes similar sites for other religious groups, what does that say about the status of any of those religions in the eyes of those owners? If someone regards their own religion as the “true way,” then they may not trust a company that would put their religious viewpoint on exactly the same footing as Muslim, Mormon or Catholic dating sites.

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.

Since many young singles are now trying to broaden their scope and use the internet to find each other, a big business opportunity has arisen. But when it comes to Catholic dating or other religious sites, many might be forgiven for thinking that the business opportunity is considered much more important than the religious principles. For the devoutly religious person, who doesn’t consider their religion interchangeable with others, it may be questionable, not to mention objectionable, that a Jewish dating site could be linked right next to Islamic, Christian, Buddhist or lesbian sites.
