This. The term Jew is both an ethnicity and religion. Their religion is founded on the belief that God’s chose people are the descendants of Abraham.
Jew
noun
a member of the people and cultural community whose traditional religion is Judaism and who trace their origins through the ancient Hebrew people of Israel to Abraham.
Rocktar, I got no leg in this race and have always found my interactions with you to be pleasant on the PC. The weekly reminders though…they kinda resemble Bhaalizmo‘s fuck Donald Trump weekly thread posts. (By the way, what happened to him and why did he stop?)
Totally agree with you that supporting Hamas is morally reprehensible & should be called out. Your heart is in the right place but I prefer not see you go down the same path. You’re better than that.

Great article about it.
Why Racial Classification Doesn’t Work
The idea of race — whether applied to Jews or another group — is itself a problem. Generally used today to denote categories of people based on certain shared characteristics, typically physical appearance, this method of categorization was once prevalent in the scientific community. But many scientists now believe that differentiating human populations on the basis of shared physical traits is obsolete and that racial categories are primarily social constructs with little correlation to anything scientists can measure.
Even if that were not the case, on the basis of the definition above, Jews would not qualify as a race. Though many modern Jews may trace their genetics to a particular ancient Jewish community, and some common genetic features are still detectable among diverse Jewish populations, centuries of dispersion among other racial and ethic groups have broadened the Jewish gene pool to an extent that it’s impossible to identify a common set of genetic markers that biologically distinguish Jews from others. Even as far back as biblical times, Jews have possessed, and passed on, genetic markers that came from outside the community.

Trump caused his meltdown.. Trump is no longer President, so maybe he self soothed himself. He even stopped posting his 98% naked women thread he has no chance of landing thread. Maybe he had a stroke or something..
Does anyone really care though? He was a poor man's Seran anyway.
Not really.
There are different variations of Judaism just like there are different denominations of Christianity. For Orthodox Jews, not just anyone can convert. You have to trace your ancestry to Abraham by having a Jew in your family tree. Likewise, look at modern day Israel’s immigration policy. To be a citizen, you have to have Jewish ancestry on the mother’s side. I don’t know all the details because I’m not a Jew, but it’s an ethnicity & community as much as it is a religion. There are a fuck ton of Jews that are agnostic / atheist.

It is though.
Merriam-Webster says so.
