One thing I want to point out, is most clans that are, "Australians only" for example, are for geographical convenience. It's not to be racist, it's just so you don't have any members staying up until 4:00am so they can have a clan battle.

They need to stop. I believe all religions, colours and any other racial aspect should be able to co-exist together. I'm sure you're proud of believing in a certain god or religion but that's too personal to bring to a Nintendo site. Groups focusing on a religious group should be made in your offline life and not online. Excluding people from a clan because they aren't Muslim or any other religion is NOT GOOD. North America, Australia and the UK are diverse countries (where most of our members come from) which means we have a diverse site. Separating the diversity into clans is NOT GOOD. People might be racist towards each other, making a clan like that won't appeal to many members, members might make comments regarding their religion that others might not approve of, if a certain religious group loses in a competion they may feel that they failed their god or whatever and so on. Just let all religions and colours co-exist in this beautiful world we have. The more colourful we are, the better. Keep your religions beliefs offline and don't bring them to a diverse Nintendo Forum.
A smart women made this comment which everyone should understand when making actions in today's society:
"While the legal, material, and even superficial requirements to eradicate racism are well known, its psychological and more deeply spiritual requirements have been persistently neglected-namely, the oneness of the human family. It is this principle of oneness that needs to be the driving force behind the struggle of uniting the races."

That applies to my school 100%.
A lot of the people at my school go to church, and they say that it's stupid if I don't go to church, and that it makes me uncool. But, frankly, I don't really care =/

I agree with what you're saying but, at the same time, a clan should be allowed to admit who they want. Its just like during the (American) Civil Rights movement. Its messed up that blacks weren't allowed in stores owned by Caucasians but at the same time, they should have the right to allow who they want in their stores.
