Some people have posted about this already.

Being a Christian doesn't mean that people will see ALL people as equal in God's image. Afterall, Christianity (whether that was "real" or "fake" Christianity isn't up to human understanding) has been used for centuries to support genocide and white supremacy.
Even still, being Christian and seeing people as equal in God's image doesn't surpass personal preference, which is what this thread speaks to. There are plenty of Christians (and people of other faiths, since interracial marriage is uncommon in plenty of cultures) who will not date interracially. Their preference is not necessarily based on supremacy or stereotypes.
However, what you deem superficial only means that your personal preferences are different than someone else's. All of our criteria can be superficial when judged by others.
