No, Jews are an ethnic group/nationality... or a "race" if you believe human beings can be distinguished according to such a category (which I don't).
Christians and Muslims don't come from a specific ethnicity and so, no, you can't be a Christian or Muslim atheist because the only parameter which makes you Christian or Muslim is belief.
Interesting. I thought Judaism was a religion, not a race/ethnicity or whatever.
The Jewish family I grew up next to were blond haired blue eyed people. Looked totally Caucasian to me.
Well The Jews originate from Israel. Fun fact: Circumcision was originally a Jewish only thing to differentiate Jews from non-Jews before the medical myths swept over into the USA and it started being done to non-Jews.
