I agree 100%
If I remember correctly the Ethnicity is Hebrew not Jewish. I think Jew is just slapped on there because people are idiots and dont know what a Hebrew is.

I think Jew is more of an Ethno-religion than anything else.

I bet if you went to the Middle East you couldn't tell Jews from Muslims.
It's a religion. End of story.
I've seen plenty of Jews that have very similar physical features.
Does this mean Jews share a common ancestry or they're usually Hebrew or what?

Real jews don't exist anymore. Just a bunch of watered down sunbeam and cracker fakes. Your a jew if your mom is a jew.

apparently Jews are singled out with the possibility of having Tay-Sachs disease. So by this, you could say it's a Race/Ethnicity.
I think this applies to middle eastern jews though. there's could be a lot of speculation on it too so eh, but yeah

well most of the jews i know are not practicing jews other than having their ceremony. and observing Hanukkah. i dont consider these people at practicing the religion as much as they are just associating themselves with it. can you consider a large group of people who associate with a certain religion for whatever reason a race?, an ethnicity, a tribe? it certainly imo is more than just a religion.

Jews are people who are Jewey. You know us when you see us so who cares about the official definition. You can convert to Judaism but if you don't have a big nose and body hair and you don't kvetch about stuff and send back your order 12 times at a restaurant, you aren't a real Jew. Kyle's family in South Park is a good example of real Jews. Except they're actually not real. But you know what I mean.

it's actually eastern european jews, and it's identified with the religion because it was only socially accepted to marry with other jews at the time, so the disease spread through families of the religion.
