I'm an athiest, and my girlfriend's family is somewhat religious, though i'm not sure how much. I think she's given up on religion.

Theoretically, if the girl I was with was religious, I wouldn't care. Going to church might be a problem, but if it was that important to her, then i'd go and bring my GameBoy. Basically, i'd draw the line at trying to convert me.
The NRA says \"Guns don\'t kill people, people kill people\"...but I think the gun helps. I don\'t think someone going around yelling \"BANG!\" is going to kill too many people.

I'm pretty confused religiously, I think I could get with someone of any religion as long as they're not super-religious (I don't think I'd fall in love with them anyways.)

I guess I'd try to focus on the things we agree on. I'd find ways to apply my beliefs to his, and his beliefs to mine.

Depends on what you mean by "convert". If someone just wants you to go to their church so as to add to their "conversion record", then they obviously don't appreciate you. But I think it's unfair to assume that anyone who wants to share their beliefs with you (because after all, if they believe it themselves then they probably view those beliefs as being correct. Who doesn't want their friends to accept a correct belief as being true?) doesn't care anything about you.
