I read this in a Texas magazine the other day:

Quote

The Internet boasts scores of specialized dating sites. Many focus on religious preference -- such as JDate (for Jєωιѕн singles, www.jdate.com), LDSRomances (for the Mormon community, www.ldsromances.com) and MuslimFriends.com (www.muslimfriends.com). Others, such as Indian Matrimonial Network (www.indianmatrimonialnetwork.com), cater to national origin. Despite the name, FarmersOnly.com isn't just for farmers, Miller notes.

Anyone see anything wrong with this article?

Just to clue you in, there is NOT a significant number of Jєωs, Mormons or Muslims around here.

Texas has a large Hispanic population, as well as many white (including German) settlers.

Isn't there a Lutheran dating site? Or is that simply Match.com (since Lutherans are very mainstream when it comes to morals)

But more importantly, why pass over CatholicMatch.com and other similar sites? There are a lot more Catholics around here than Indians or Muslims.

It just goes to show you that anti-Catholic bias isn't dead.

There used to be signs that read, "Irish need not apply" and it was because Irish were close to 100% Catholic.
