I like how all the 'anti gay marriage' straight guys  on here, who act like they want to protect the biblical idea of a monogamous union for life of a man and woman.....are all probably divorced or separated, on their second or third marriage, with kids left from previous ones.

Not race.

Ethnicity AND culture.

Part of the culture as per the OP is humor but much more of course.

Jews are an ethnoreligious group.  So no need to follow the religion to be a Jew if you're a Jew.

Different than Islam and Christianity. 

 

BTW, there is only one race. The human race.

There is no scientific basis for different races. But there are ethnicities.

Race is a human construct though and widely accepted as real.

Thus Jew hatred (antisemitism) is a type of racism.

Thank you for that. 

So it's similar to the LGBQ plus these could be an ethnic groups as they share a culture. 

In theory I could call myself a Jew if I adopted the culture and ethnicity, or was brought up / adopted as a kid by a Jewish family. 

I just wish humans gave up their ethnicities and cultures and just got on with modern life and all be one. It's all very interesting but belongs in a museum or history class. 

These days everyone seems to want to attach a label to themselves and make themselves special or unique. In my younger years people used to say they did not like to be labeled gay, stesignt etc..they are themselves.  Get to know the person not have per ideas about them based on their race, religion, sexuality etc.. 

Anyway.  Thanks for taking time to reply to my question.

Another one that knows nothing about Jews.

Yes. Why should I know details of Jewish beliefs? 

That is why I was asking you so you could tell me. 

So why so you say you are Jewish if you are an athiest? 

I can only guess it's because you believe you are from Jewish race of people. But I don't think genetically there is a Jewish race...like there is African, Asian, etc.

I'm atheist. 

 

The chosen thing has no resonance to me.

 

Jew haters obsess on it though and grossly distort its meaning to inflame bigotry.

 

Next

....

So you are not Jewish if you are an atheist. 

I had Christian parents, but I'm an atheist too. 

So, I am not Christian. 

I don't tell people I am a Christian.

Unfortunately predictably this good intentioned topic has attracted an open spigot of hate speech. 

Are u a religious person Jimgthing? 

Do you identify as Jewish because you believe in that God and that religion, or becauss of your genetics / race? 

If so, do you believe you are part of the Jewish God chosen race? 

This is my problem with all religions. Each one believes they are the true on and anyone else not worshipping their God or Gods are wrong and will go to hell.  

I think that of Christians and Muslims, not just Jews.  How can anyone give respect to others who tell them they are sinners and will go to hell?

Huge generalization. Some do, some don't. In my opinion legal immigrants tend to do well, illegal immigrants are a scourge. 

 

What it does do is put huge strain on housing, schooling, the NHS, the police etc. 

A bigger huge strain on the NHS, schooling, housing and the police is the current government

I don't agree with splitting assets when I have done 95% of the earning. And 100% of the houses, cars, and kids education.

 

 

No. Neither do I.  I would not marry someone who did not work or contribute anything to the family apart from in the bedroom.

In your opinion

"Modern health care relies on petroleum products that have few substitutes. Plastics are used in a wide-range of medical devices and petrochemicals are relied on for pharmaceuticals. Products include hospital equipment, IV bags, aspirin, antihistamines, artificial limbs, dentures, hearing aids, heart valves and many more."

That's the problem. 

We need to find alternatives to oil 

Anyway they amount tod oil used in these medical things is insignificant compared to the environmental impacts of oil used for fuel, for example.

IMO parading around in a shirt saying "just stop oil" marks one as an idiot, and if any doctors think that is a sensible thing they are suspect of being too stupid to practice.

 

Imagine if their wish came true and oil stopped tomorrow. By Christmas most of human life would have ended, given that oil is used to grow most of the food we eat, and make the medicine they prescribe.

Please don't grow your food in oil. That's not gonna be healthy to eat.

Spot on.

 

Why this story is considered newsworthy is beyond me.

Because a percentage of British people have some deluded and perverse pleasure in anything to do with their unelected, outdated and entitled family of Germans who lord it over them....living a super rich lifestyle for doing sweet FA, while they have to struggle even to pay utility bills or feed their own children. 

So the results just show that mostly more women are saying they are bi sexual than preciously. 

It's good that these days people feel able to be more honest about their sexual feelings. 

The percentages were probably the same for all the other generations before them, but society made it harder for people to be honest about their true feelings, or they repressed them out of shame or learned morals from religion or society in general. 

Yep. It's any Isreal concerning the war on Palistine. It's not about being anti Jewish people who live in Ireland.

Yes, from my generation, quite common for little awareness of dental care. I readily accept lack of responsibility since adulthood. 

Funny. Around the world British people are portrayed as having the worst teeth and dental hygiene. Often in cartoons for example British characters or shown with crooked teeth or buck teeth. 

The dentistry in the UK is actually very bad. One third of people there have no access at all to dentists. People are resorting to pulling their own rotten teeth out at home.. 

It do not think you should be proud of the state of British people's dental care. Lol
