None of the three would bother me, really. Religion if she was pushy about it. But if she wants to go to church, that's her choice. Invite me, fine. I'll decline. As soon as the "I love you and I don't want you to go to hell, so please come to church" talk starts, buh-bye.
I know that religion bothers my parents. My looong time g/f (ex) was raised in the JW church. My stepmom tried talking to her about religion countless times. Likewise, her dad tried talking to me quite a few times, and really, really didn't like the fact that I wasn't JW.
See, that's the thing that I hate about religion. It's supposed to be some kind of soul-saving, morally correct way to live, but all it does is segregate people. I mean, I bring home a hot blond with a quick wit and a sharp mind, and my parents find fault in her version of santa claus. WTF?
Anyway, as for race, I just don't know why anyone would have any problem with someone of a different race. I suppose if you come from a place where there is still some pretty high tension between certain groups, it's understandable. But me, born and raised in Calgary, it's just not even something that I care about. Love to joke about race (racial jokes are the funniest ones), but really don't care. My parents might though. Lol, I was seeing a black muslim girl for awhile. Too bad it didn't last long enough to take her home to the 'rents. That would have been priceless.
