Interested But Not Inquisitive

I'm quite confident I can judge people without being prejudiced with a person's heritage, or religion. Therefore, I never start a conversation in that way and use other topics. Any person is welcome to surrender this information though.

If people are inquiring about race or religion just to fuel their own prejudices, that's lazy, offensive and defeats the purpose of conversation. Only your own direct interactions and intentions should be relevant for forming an opinion about each other. Anything indirect is of secondary importance.
