Comments on: Jewish — Race Or Religion? http://religiousfreaks.com/2006/12/07/jewish-race-or-religion/ Have faith in yourself Tue, 7 Oct 2008 02:48:03 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: doreen http://religiousfreaks.com/2006/12/07/jewish-race-or-religion/#comment-208031 doreen Wed, 20 Aug 2008 23:10:07 +0000 http://religiousfreaks.com/2006/12/07/jewish-race-or-religion/#comment-208031 Jewish is a religion. Not a race. Yes, a large group of people only married each other, like the chinese or japanese do still now. They, like the british royalty, pass on horrible heriditary diseases, because they won't breed outside their group. But according to the Bible, Jewishness is a RELIGION. Anyone can become a jew. even sammy davis, jr. atheists can be residents of israel. but they aren't jews. Jewish is a religion. Not a race.

Once and for all: THERE ARE NO RACES AMONGST HUMANS. Get it? There is only the human race. Other races are for example baboons, chimpanzees, gorillas. Anybody trying to teach about "jewish race", "african race", you name it, is wrong. In the worst case, he's a fascist, but more likely, he's still caught in a system of belief which is revoked since at least 50 years. I can’t believe reading so much well-intended errance.

In those times, every nationality had a state religion. In first century Judea, the state religion was the Judean religion, or Jewish religion as we call it today. Jewish refers to a peoplehood, which is made up of a multiplicity of cultures and races because Jews have intermarried everywhere they have settled since Biblical times. Some of those Jews still observe the Jewish religion, and others do not observe anything at all, such as atheists. Such people are sometimes called cultural Jews since they are not religious Jews. There are also non-Jews who convert to the Jewish religion, and are adopted into the the Jewish peoplehood. It is interesting to note, however, that if a Jew converts to a different religion, he or she is considered no longer a part of the Jewish peoplehood. A person can be atheist and still be Jewish, but someone like a Jew for Jesus is no longer considered part of the Jewish peoplehood. Christianity, on the other hand is strictly a religion and not a peoplehood. While Latin and Greek are still used as liturgical languanges, there isn't a Christian language. Nobody speaks Christian. People all over the world still speak Jewish which the word Yiddish means, and the other two primary Jewish languages Hebrew and Ladino or Judeo-Spanish. To answer your question directly, Jewish is not a race but many races, it is a religion, and it is a peoplehood.

This obviously doesn't justify turning around and kicking out the Palestinians. But, if they would agree to live in peace with Israelis in a Jewish free state or if they were given their own nation in the West Bank and Gaza, then our problems would be solved. But of course they would be left out of their original homes and cities. If everyone could live in Israel together, then there wouldn't have to be anyone getting kicked out or "pushed into the sea".

They're kind of not a race or a religion. I'm Jewish, and I have some friends who are black and jewish. Religiously, they're Jewish. But ethnically, they associate more with blacks.
