Wait, we haven't discussed the Kaifeng Jews, the Chinese Jews; see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaifeng_Jews For a 1907 article on the "Chinese Jews" that appeared in the "National Geographics", see: http://www.haruth.com/JewsChina1907.html Is Stephen Black being disrespectful towards Aisians by not giving them equal time? ;-) And oh, for more on "Jewish Genes" here is a blog based on a 2000 article in a Proceedings of the National Academy of Scince: http://www.aish.com/ci/sam/48937817.html Quoting from the blog's quote of the article: |"Despite their long-term residence in different countries and |isolation from one another, most Jewish populations were |not significantly different from one another at the genetic level. |The results support the hypothesis that the paternal gene pools |of Jewish communities from Europe, North Africa and the |Middle East descended from a common Middle Eastern |ancestral population, and suggest that most Jewish communities |have remained relatively isolated from neighboring non-Jewish |communities during and after the Diaspora." |(M.F. Hammer, Proc. Nat'l Academy of Science, May 9, 2000) But why don't we open it up to all known Jewish groups, as represented in a Wikipedia entry (SDA); see" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_ethnic_divisions And what are we to make of Julius Lester? Oy Gewalt! see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Lester Well, as a Yeshiva student once told me during class where we were having difficulty getting a consensus position on something: "Look Prof, you get three Jews togethers, don't be surprised that you get five opinions to deal with!" -Mike Palij New York University m...@nyu.edu --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: arch...@jab.org.
