Well, let's be clear, you did not mention wanting a "more Caucasian church", you said:

It would have come across better if you had asked for a church that was not predominately any race. "Not so racially diverse" sounds like you are looking for a Church that is mostly, if not all, a certain race (yet you didn't identify what that race is). Racially diverse doesn't mean black or Asian; racially diverse means a whole mix of people.

If it were an Arian church, I would also flee, but for entirely different reasons.

(Arianism rejected as heresy at the Council of Nicea, 325 AD, and is something Catholics, Protestants, and Eastern Orthodox actually all agree on)

That (my initial post) was a joke. Figured the OP didn't realize that Blacks also read some of these threads on C-D. He's talking about the Aryan race. What you're referring to is theological; I wouldn't attend an Arian church either.

Southeast Christian?

However, as to NoVa, I suspect the further south down 95 you drive the less diverse the churches. I live in a neighborhood that has a fair amount of racial diversity, but for the couple of churches nearest our home that we tried, I seem to recall we were the racial diversity for the service that day - lol.

You are correct. That church made traffic awful on I-64 on Sunday's. But definitely a homogenous mega church.
