I've convinced myself I want to roll a Holy Paladin. But I'm considering the race choice now.
My main focus will be PvE but I'm certain to do some BGs as well.
Since I'm not going tank/dps the extra hit/exp from Sword/mace skills won't have a huge impact (or will it?). I'm weighing Perception/Faction gain against Stoneform.
It's been a while since I've played so I hopped on Feenix's instant 60 server last night and made a 60 Holy Pally to heal in the BGs with. I feel like I wasn't the focus of rogues at all being a plate class. So I'm not sure how much Stoneform would help me in PvP or PvE. If I found myself standing still for any period of time I'd drop a consecration down to deter any rogues from sapping or stabbing me.
Perception doesn't seem all that powerful either since it's an activated ability and not a passive one. And of course it's PvP only when my main focus will be PvE.
To everyone rolling Paladins what are your Race choices and why?
On a side note, this is the Holy spec I have in mind. Please feel free to correct any huge mistakes I've made.

What are your thoughts on switching out some shield talents in Prot for 3% hits to aid in landing Seal of Wisdom/Light on boss mobs? Also, is Imp Concentration Aura worth getting?
