You switch from "religion" in your title to "ethnicity" in the body. Other than a few spelling errors (no big problem) we have basically nothing to judge your character by, though many people around here know a lot about VC's/angels. We simply can't tell you how you will do.

If I were a VC and you wrote me the above email I would probably respond "I love disruption in everything, it's basically my job; it's hard to disrupt the status quo while holding utmost respect for traditions that go back millennia. as such if this bothers you I may not be a fit. On the other hand, you can believe whatever you want! I would question whether you would be as open-minded as my other founders, if you are dogmatic about your core beliefs - but this will not influence in any way my decision to invest - just prove that you are innovative in business." Then I would look at the email for a few seconds, and delete it rather than send it. Because I can't risk getting into some huge argument over this - being accused of being bigoted, being sued, etc. Plus, who introduced you? If you were introduced to me it would be a different matter.

so, that is how filtering works in the VC world, I think. Please note that I'm not a VC and this is speculation.
