Well, last I checked Jews were classed as an 'ethnoreligious' group...

So, it is possible to be a Jew by ethnicity.

Since the people of the world who declare themselves Jews share neither a common religion nor a common ethnicity I have to ask what kind of idiot made that classification.

I can get ahead of one claim by directing attention to the Israeli court decision Haaretz Original Article Wed., August 12, 2009 Av 22, 5769 | Israel Time: 02:12 (EST+7) Removing hypocrisy By Edna Ullmann-Margalit
Quote:The right to a separate education based on ethnic affiliation is not an absolute right when it clashes with the right to equality, the judges ruled.

As the original issue is not being religious I must await the creativity of those who disagree with both myself and the Israeli courts.

Jews don't knock on my door on Saturday morning asking if I've found Moses or whether or not my soul is prepared for Sheol if I were to die tomorrow.

In fact, provided you don't live on a piece of real-estate on the eastern Med that was promised to them by their celestial Realtor in the sky, they pretty much leave you alone.

I admire that in a religion.

As to this no knock benefit I would point out neither the Catholics nor the Muslims are door knockers. Not only is the religion itself down in the noise so also their ranking in disturbing the peace.

Additionally, the Jews don't kick down my bedroom door, legislate their values upon me or interfere with the teaching of evolution and other science in schools. I could go on with other infractions of religion against civilization but I think you get the point.

Catholics and muslims have done their share of head-knocking...which is even worse than door-knocking.

Go live in Israel where they have the opportunity instead of where a minority and discover what they do when they have the power. They over three million non-jews ruled by a totalitarian, jewish dictatorship. They have one and a half million locked down in a military siege. Of the three million they have effectively stolen all the available water which is clearly a war crime for which the penalty is death by hanging. I could list many other war crimes which earned the death penalty at Nuremberg.

NEVER judge people by what they do when out of power. Judge people by what they do when they are in power.

Inside Israel Christians are second class and Muslims are third class citizens or perhaps fourth class. I can come up with enough examples from newspapers which are both Israeli and Jewish to demonstrate the Jewish idea of treatment of non-jewish citizens originated in Alabama in the 1920s. Be certain to tell me they can vote but I have no interest unless there is a second thing that is different from Alabama. It does not differ from a studious PR effort. But Jews in the Knesset regularly urge disenfranchisement and expulsion on the primitive idea that Palestinians are a race, and the lie that they are Arabs. REDNECK bigots.

My website has never been a secret. Read of bit from the top center column. I am particular fond of my imitation of the book reviewer style in Israel's willing Executioners by Matt Giwer, © 2002 [October] , modeled after the content of another book of a similar title.

In response to "are all Muslims evil" I replied "only those who do not condemn the spread of Islam by force." Another answer is "only Jews who do not condemn Israel."

And right now Jews are doing the same things in Israel in plain sight of the redneck Christians who approve of it. Redneck Jews and redneck Christians make a great combination when the latter enable the former and keep the former in existence.

Most of the Jews I know suck at being stupid and acting loutishly.

Considering Chutzpah is a synonym for rude, crude and vulgar it is unclear how you missed the loutish ones. What is incredible is being proud of being louts by portraying Chutzpah as a good thing.
