Judith, I'm not contending the cultural identity of being Jewish and I know

So call it nationality. The point is, the thing that makes a Jew a Jew, even if he or

That's because race has been used all too often as an excuse for anti-semitism, so
many Jews are uncomfortable with the word. Think about it. If we're not a race, the
whole "purity of the races" notion doesn't hold water, and there goes another excuse.

There's an element of race as well as religion, Howie. Or call it nationality instead.
That's how a Jew can be considered Jewish even if he/she never practices his or her
religion. He's Jewish by birth, not by practice. That's what she means by race.
Technically, all Jews are semites, no?

But Beth, if you convert to the Jewish religion, you automatically become part of the
Jewish race. You get the national/cultural as well as the religious aspects of it.
That's the whole meaning of Mikvah (immersion in the ritual bath) -- it's as if you've

AFAIK, begin Jewish is not a race, it's a religion. I thought that Israelis were
semites, which is a race.

Well, the original Jews closely resembled my brother, his children and my
