Uh...which one comes to mind?

How many races live in a modern, civilized society but believe that sacrificing chickens will place a religious curse on their opponents? Hmmmm.
Wait...so that's based on race, not religion?

How many races believe that it's OK to sacifice your life, and take out as many others as possible, in the name of your supposed god and that you'll have a host of virgins waiting for you in the afterlife? Are you kidding me?
That's race? hmm...could have sworn it was based on religion (or the bastardization of religion, as it were)

I believe that it's encoded within the DNA of some races to act first (e.g., emotion, fight or flight, etc.), and to think later (e.g., intelligence, rational thought, etc.), or to not think at all (e.g., it's god's will, it's what the holy book dictates, etc.).
[Huh?] Good God...
