So, what makes a Jew, birth or inherited religion?
The last time this distasteful discussion came up, I surfed some of the Jewish boards. One statement that struck me was to the effect that Jews are white until someone wants to round them up and murder them all. A friend of mine is a Jew. She knows all about good bagels, lox, and all the good traditional Jewish food. She is ignorant of the Jewish religion, has little money, no political influence of any sort, has never been to Israel or Europe. She is perhaps the most cheerful and helpful person I have ever met. How does she fit into this discussion about "dispicable Jews"?

Depends on how she feels about palestinians?

She doesn't hate anybody, and I don't think she gives the nation of Israel much thought.
She's an American who grew up in California.

That goes back to the question - is a person a Jew by birth or inherited religion? Is it regardless of political belief or lack thereof?
To some people it won't matter in the same way that some believe everyone with a brown skin and Spanish last name is an illegal alien.

If you want to know who runs a country, ask this question:
Who are we not allowed to criticize? Does this give you a clue? Helen Thomas. Rich Sanchez. Charlie Sheen. All gone within 72 hours after criticizing God's chosen people. |

The white comedian who went into a tirade onstage about "N@ggers" after a heckler got his goat will never appear on stage EVER AGAIN Mel Gibson's drunken rant about Jews didn't do him in - it was his recorded, beyond venomous telephone conversation with his estranged wife. As you would probably say at another time if the subject weren't about "Jews", "God's Chosen People" in America is just about everyone who isn't considered a protected class under the Civil Rights Act by far left interpretation. And, as you have so indelicately pointed out so many times, that doesn't include you and I - but a white Russian woman calculatingly baiting a celebrity over the phone qualifies under the circumstances. To toss out some names might be far more acceptable than simply describing a real or perceived problem as having been caused by "Jews". Which "Jews"? Are you broadly classifying and including everyone with certain genes, certain last names, a particular faith whether practiced or not, or are you using the word as a broad pejorative? It's like the way a lot of people toss out the words "Mexican", "Latino", or "Hispanic", on any - or not - side of the immigration fight; those words are so broad and so inclusive and have so many contradictory definitions as to practically be meaningless. Just who are we really talking about when we use any of those words as well as "Jew"?
