i think the question is, how do they have a race in the first place.

Where would the race of jews be from, like what country or continent. Thats what i dont know.

The Romans kicked the Jews out of Israel thousands of years ago because they were rebelling. They shipped them to and scattered them around Europe. Jews that have returned to Israel (as well as some other people who live in Israel) are modern Israelis.

I mean under race there is:

hispanic
asian

AND jew it just doesnt seem to fit under the category



i find this rather funny, typical ignorant Yank. TTTTTTimmy, does this mean all coloureds are African Americans. what happened to the REAL Africans and what about Aborigines. i'm pretty sure Eskimos don't fit into any of your categories. what about the coloureds that are born in European countries and are 4/5 generations of said countries.

Interesting....

When you say you are "half Jewish" do you mean religiously or racially?

I don't think you are presenting a good, clear argument. There are thousands of people that would agree with you...but you don't make good points to support your argument. You come off looking like a bit of a....hmmmm.....birdbrain.

it is a distinct ethnicity with a rich cultural history that i admire and would defend if necessary.


It is not a "race" as most anthropologists might catagorize it, it is however an ethnic group to itself. It is also a religious community.

So, it is kind of both, but moreso one that the other.

While I tend to be quite black-and-white, I do recognize that some things don't easily fit into pretty little boxes.

i think that jews aren't just a religion or a race, but also robot killer assassins from THE FUTURE.
have you ever seen an idealist with grey hairs on his head?
or successful men who keep in touch with unsuccessful friends?
you only think you did
i could have sworn i saw it too
but as it turns out it was just a clever ad for cigarettes.
