    Some people think that after one has been living in the country long enough to learn its language, traditions and ways, has his permanent home and job there, the citizenship of the country and, most importantly, associates himself with it, he is considered a native there. Still more are his offspring, either by a native or by his compatriot. You are evidently of a different mind. For you ethnicity and origin overrule.

    Religions, as is the way with all more or less abstract notions - language, for example, - can't be assessed against the "good-bad" scale. Every religion (mostly through its antiquity) contains many controversial and (for the modern world) inacceptable tenets. The problem is in people who may follow the obsolete tenets literally or loosely. And if we talk of close following, then all religions are "horrible". If people are sensible enough to realize that the world is not what it was a couple of millenia ago, the religion is doing fine.
