I don't know if it's really a religious thing. I'm not regligious, but if your gf is my daughter, I'd honestly have doubts about your relationship too. Please don't take any offense to what I'm saying, but in reading all your responses, I would have some serious doubts as to how committed you really were to my daughter.
As a father, I think it's quite understandable to make sure a daughter is well taken care of. I'm not saying you have to take care of her financially or anything, but the fact that you say you don't want marriage and kids ever, and that you would never share joint bank accounts later on in life, tells me you have some committment issues.
It's a nice gesture that you come over for dinner (on your non football days lol), come to family functions and stuff like that. But that stuff is the bare minimum of what you should already be doing if you were serious about the relationship. It's what you can show me above those things which tells me whether you'd be good for my daughter or not. And frankly, I don't see anything that does.
So I guess honestly, I totally see where your gf's dad is coming from.
