dating is a sin, what we all should do is wait on GOD to bring our spouse together.

Yes, G-d forbid you should have a chance to make sure that you and your future spouse get along and have some common interests before you take the plunge, because that would be irresponsible!
What isn't a sin anymore?
Uh...if you're not going to date, just how are you and your future spouse going to meet and realize that it's best to get married? I realize how ignorant I am of human pre-marriage rituals throughout history, but the only other option I remember is arranged marriages, and those sound less like the work of GOD and more like that of your parents.
Unless you instantly decide to get married to someone, there must be some element of dating SOMEWHERE, otherwise you'd never find your spouse.
Saying that, these are the same MySpace idiots that advocate getting married as quickly as possible so that you don't commit any sexual immorality.

Praying and twiddling your thumbs. Oh, and techno, rave, and dance music, apparently.
I'm starting to think that God arranged the courtship ritual more as a means of his own amusement rather than to carry on the human species. The bastard has his own personal version of Bliond Date playing 24/7!
"Justin is a crazy bastard from Houston, Texas who enjoys stockpiling weapons for the coming apocalypse, devoting himself to God, and baking! Susan is a woman from Sacremento whose turn-ons include long walks on the beach and fishnet manties. Will these two be able to find common ground and possibly romance? Even more important; will they be able to enjoy their date when they're attacked...by RATTLESNAKES!"
Yes, dating isn't a sin, but marrying somebody you don't love and lie in his name IS. Besides, do you think that God is a matchmaker or dating agency?, why on Earth is he going to do, a reality show to "bring you together"
So, you think that God has a dating agency, or that he is going to come in person to tell us who is who?, you have no idea of theology, man.
While you're waiting, the rest of us are out there having fun.
If there's a God, and he wanted us to wait until marriage to have sex, and then to only have sex to make babies, and we learned all of this when we ate from the tree, why do we even have orgasms?
Feel better now?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
