[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I HATE THIS. I have two Jewish kids -- boy and girl twins -- with bright red hair and freckles and it hurts me that they are always told "you don't look Jewish". I don't mind that they DO look Irish (which is an ethnicity) but Judaism is a religion -- you cannot "look" Jewish, just like you cannot look Christian.[/quote] YES YOU CAN. [b]Are you really Jewish and you don't know this? Ashkenazi Jews are a distinct genetic group with physical similarities. While of course there are Jews who aren't Ashkenazi and those who converted, there is ABSOLUTELY an ethnic component to MANY Jews, given that Ashkenazi Jews are 10-11 million of the 16 million Jews in the world. [/b][b] Judaism is considered an ethno-religious group for this reason. [/quote] I know this, too, and I'm not even Jewish. :lol: [/quote]
