[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, I thought I was of Polish/Czech Catholic ancestry, but my at-home DNA test indicates 99% Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. By Jewish law, does this mean I am "officially" Jewish? I was raised Catholic and know nothing about the religion. (But am going to research, as I'm interested in knowing my family's story). [/quote] Nope. Unless your mother is a practicing Jew, your DNA really doesn't matter for much.[/quote] I don’t think she has to be practicing for matrilineal descent? OP when did your relatives come from Eastern Europe and where did they settle in the US? it seems unusual but assimilation in the early 20th century wasn’t that unusual. So maybe both sets of grandparents were Jewish immigrants to the US in the 20s as children and assimilated?[/quote] You are a Jew if your mother is a Jew. That it. If your mother was born from a Jewish mother you are Jewish. Jewish is a religion if you don’t want to practice you don’t have to. But when the world implodes ie your mother was Jewish the world considers you a Jew. The Holocaust happened it is going to happen again OP would be considered a Jew again if her mother was Jewish. I am a Jew I do not consider Chabad or Lubbies or Hadids Jews they are cults. However when they come for me they will come for them. And no this is not me disparaging those groups. Those groups are a cult because they treat women badly keep them uneducated and indoctrination is a thing. No different that evangelical Christians or Christian’s Nationalist or Opus Dei [/quote]
