I think most people forget that Jesus was most likely an Arab.

"Sorry, J-man. Looks like your Second Coming has to be delayed another century. There's a petition going on to keep you out of Mass Effect 3."

Now to risk starting a religious flame war, I always thought that Jesus of Nazareth was probably Jewish, not Arab, since early Christianity comes out of Judaism, just as Islam comes out of Christianity, ergo all three religions being of 'The Book'.  

Also, as noted by another poster, census figures in North America show that 'white' people are going to be the visible minority in the next fifty years... which means, by Mass Effect's time, we'll see more Anderson's and Udina types than we do Conrad Verner.  

Is it just me, or could someone make a case out of 'all the white people in Mass Effect are evil'?  You've got Cerberus led by the Caucasian-looking Illusive Man; most of the Cerberus operatives and troops we saw in the first game were white (including Doctor Wayne), ditto the ExoGeni guys  There's also that gangster Fist, the corrupt C-Sec types like Harkin, Helena Blake's criminal rivals, and Finch's friend from the "Old Friends" side-quest for Earthborn backgrounds. Everyone who was in the facility torturing Jack looked like they were white... and outside of Default Shepard, all the hero-characters who were human and not on the Normandy SR-1 or part of your party were black, brown, or maybe Asian (Admiral Kahoku).

You know... this has some.. unfortunate implications, and refutes the OP's views on minorities as posted here...

I SUPPORT THIS PROPOSITION, NO MINORITIES IN ME3!!!



That means that by current standard, we should get rid of the wasps and only use Chinese people in ME3 (more precisely the Han ethnicity). And don't forget that Slavic people, Anglo-saxon and white latin people are not from the same place, ie not the same minority.



In 150 years, there are going to be a lot more people of mixed origins, but maybe still less than people of "pure" origins, they would be a minority, let's only use "pure" Chinese, "pure" Germans, "pure" Russians", "pure" Kenyans... Of course, Americans (as in from both north and south America) are excluded since their origins are mixed.



Then, we should get rid of the purplish Asari since they are an obvious minority compared to the blue ones. Hmmm, the Quarians total population barely reaches 17 millions, they are an obvious minority, let's make the next game without Quarians....



Or, maybe I live in Japan, and I clearly make the difference between a Chinese and a Japanese, like the French always recognize an Englishman, but I can't recognize what the Asians in the game are, this makes me ill at ease. I can't distinguish which is the minority.



By the way, get rid of Kelly, I don't like the red headed minority, get rid of Liara too, I don't like the pure blooded minority, and don't forget Alenko, with this kind of name, he's obviously a minority, and I don't like Zaeed's name.



Should I go on? Since intolerant people are a minority, maybe we should get rid of them too.

this thread is ridiculous nonsense and offensive. Here is where the line needs to be drawn on freedom of speech. How can a thread called "no minorities in mass effect 3" even last this long? Who the hell is monitoring this forum? Do your damn job and close this thread down.

He was a Jew.

I demand that Mass Effect 3 has no aliens.

IMO there should be more minorities, there weren't any Latinos, Arabs, or Asians.

Arab's = Quarians

rne is providing an analogy for the anti-gay people who think that the company should make their games according to their bigotry.

Exactly.
I know it's hard to spot sarcasm on the internet from genuine bigotry but come on, this is pretty obvious.
For Hell's sake it's right next to the homophobic thread !

Boo to this crap as well. Woo! Begazo! I bet it doesn't take more than a button click or two to shut down this nonsense. Can you really claim it is in good taste to let these types of threads stay open?

Hey, I don't get paid to moderate, and I certainly don't spend all day combing the forums, I'm shutting this trash down right now but I'm shocked none of you had the sense to simply PM me with the link in the first place.
