How important is it that your political/religious beliefs align with your guy? Depends on your level of passion and your level of tolerance for each other's beliefs. If you're a serious activist/political organizer and love to get into heated debates about politics and/or religion and he's much the same way except on the other side -- that's probably not going to work. Both of you can have a beautiful, loving, healthy relationship if you respect each other deeply and don't allow political/religious beliefs to interfere with how you feel about each other.
One way to gauge whether you're ready to open yourself up is to look at your friends. Are they diverse? Do they hold views opposite to you and do you still love and respect them anyway? If so, you can date outside your religion and your political affiliation.
