I almost sense they are judging people as racist for not considering an inter-racial marriage

Exactly right. In fact, I didn't realize what a quicksand trap I had fallen into until everyone started reacting negatively to my comment #8 above, as if I were a racist.

Race was the last thing on my mind; I was thinking that any woman who's unfamiliar with islamic hatred of women is going to be in for a huge shock if she marries a muslim, no matter what the groom's race or nationality. What better example to take than some ditzy white broad who's never read a newspaper? We've seen it time and again. But people jumped all over it, lol!

What better example to take than some ditzy white broad who's never read a newspaper? We've seen it time and again. But people jumped all over it, lol! Well, let's take a look at what you posted, shall we? "But 53% of Britons with Asian origins said they would not mind a mixed-race marriage, compared to 87% for whites." I didn't know there were that many mentally ill white people in Briton! Here's how it reads: The line from the article above states that 87% of white Britons state that that would not mind a mixed marriage. To this, you reply by commenting that the white people (who state an indifference to a mixed race marriage) are mentally ill. Thus, in order to be sane, one would have to be disturbed by a mixed race marriage. Nowhere is religion mentioned. So, how were people supposed to take your comment?
