It all comes down to their ignorance, arrogance and racism. They have absolutely no right to be against people of mixed race (or anybody who is not white, for that matter). But since they are so narrow-minded and fundamental in their beliefs, they will think whatever they want and think it's the absolute truth.
I honestly do not think that her parents would disown her if they were to find out- probably get really pissed off at her and forbid her from seeing you. But I am not one to judge- I have no idea who they are or what they'd do to their own daughter. I am deeply sorry that you and your girlfriend are going through this- it is nothing either one of you or anyone else in the world deserves.
There is nothing you can do about her parents- they are who they are. Besides, people like that never, ever change. All I can tell you is that if you two really like each other, you should work at it, even if that means being secretive (which I know is really annoying and uncomfortable). It seems that it may be one of your only options. She can just say she's out with friends, if that's what it takes. Talk to her about it, and see how the two of you can work things out and try arranging something. Her idiot parents should not get in the way of things.
Oh, and by the way, it is in no way a sin to be of mixed race, or to have children with someone of another ethnicity, creed, belief, etc., for a number of reasons:
a) We are all human.. simple as that. We are all people, human beings with dignity and feelings. People should treat each other equally no matter what, but because of prejudice, racism..and in this country, a history of bigotry, people tend to forget this- and make excuses for poor beliefs.
b) Religion preaches equality, not bigotry.
c) Religion or no religion, who is anyone or any belief to say that something is "wrong?" If you are a good person and treat your fellow human beings with dignity and respect, that is ALL that matters.

To God all people are the same it doesn't matter what they look like. YOu may want to point this out to your girlfriend. If she doesn't "care if they do" then why is she defending them? I'm sorry I couldn't be of more help. [ butterflyeyelashes's advice column | Ask butterflyeyelashes A Question ]

But unfortunatly not everyone thinks like that . Yes the bible does what people with their own kind but no one can help who they fall in love with . Im pretty sure your parents believe in god but then again they didnt plan on falling in love it happend right . I went through the whole " if you date other than your race your a dis grace and all this stuff but i told them your gonna have to because there is no color when it comes to love . If she really loves you her parents cant make yall split but if she doesnt , shes just going to listen to her parents because shes scared .
