HISTORY
Canaanite polytheism gave rise to Hebrews, Hebrews wrote the Talmud. The Talmud is a holy book. THERE IS NO WAY AROUND THAT.
Getting caught up in the varies excuses humans use to set up social pecking orders after the fact does not change how it started in the first place. If the Hebrew religion was never started the Talmud never would have been written, thus there would be no Jews(claiming race) or Jews(claiming religion).
JUST LIKE if the Koran were never written, there would be no Arab Muslims or secular Arabs claiming race or religion.
Just like if the bible were never written you would not have right wingers claiming bible based laws and secular liberal Christians claiming "Christian nation".
It still amounts to setting up a social pecking order.
There is no way to protect religious freedom once a government winks at one group in it's language. The only way to protect religious freedom is to leave it at "freedom of religion" DO NOT ADD anything to it.
