By all means make you religious inclination obvious in a profile. But Religion is so complex I doubt anyone's "stance" could be done Justice in something as brief as a dating profile (except maybe an Atheist). It is also so deep for some people that I think it's always best to treat it with obvious respect for the beliefs of others. Like another posted said - the use of derogatory terms is not a good idea. And remember, even an Atheist can see you are being rude and they may happen to be really ruened off by someone who is rude about any subject.
I also think religion ought to be on the list of topics to address early on, and I think it is best to explain beliefs fearlessly because religious differences could very well be a "dealbreaker" for both people.

Local opinions may vary.

Thank you all for your advise. This is a sensitive subject and it helps to get other people's take on it.

In your settings you have indicated your religious situation and you have also selected what relgious views you will consider in a match. You can also select how important this is to you. If you make this very important then you should eliminate any matches that do not meet your particular views.

If you would prefer that your matchese don't mis-interpret what you have in your profile or MHCS you can wait until you get to the Second Questions or are in Open Communication and can share thoughts on this subject in detail.

Of course with all of the settings the more rigid you are on them the fewr matches you are likely to get. So no complaining if you make this a very ridgid requirement in your profile or settings and get few if any matches.
