try telling that to some of the jews who think they are a unique race or governments and institutions that request your race on forms. -------------------------------------------- Jews are the only people I know who consider their religion their ethnicity ... most Jewish folk who did not stay in the Middle East for centuries as well as the Iberian peninsula and are Sephardic Jews, the vast majority of European and western Jews are Ashkenazi ... they look more European than the Sephardic Jews, who look like their Arab neighbors who all share a common ancestor!!! Like all religions Judaism has different flavors and some are hard-core orthodox and others are happy go lucky reformed!!!
