[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Like beauty, Jewishness is in the eye of the beholder. Hitler would have considered me a Jew without a second thought, as do most people I meet. But for one who thinks the Torah is important, an atheist like me probably does not qualify. If asked whether I consider myself Jewish, I'd probably say "It depends," which seems to me to be a particularly Jewish answer, especially since I would likely throw in a bit of a Yiddish lilt, just for the fun of it. Or in a particularly playful mood, I might respond "Am I a Jew? Oy!"[/quote] Truth be told, finally. Thank you. Like I said a few pages ago, which way is the wind blowing? But you are exactly right. I know Jewish men, oops, I know men who will fight you tooth and nail that they are NOT Jewish, even though both parents were Jewish. To me, it's like assuming that a brown person is African-American. That is also a major mistake. I know people who are very offended by your classifying them in the wrong way without even first asking. [/quote]
