    No. It still wasn't.

    I can call my Nissan a Porsche, but that don't make it so.

    You can be from France and that be your national origin, but requiring a certain ancestry for citizenship, but that didn't make being French a race.

    I don't know how we got off on the tangent, but I always understood 'Jewish' as both ethnicity and religion.

    * Are atheists who are of Jewish heritage no longer Jewish?
    * Do Orthodox Jews allow people to 'become' Jewish? No, you have to be born Jewish, right?
    * Jews belong to tribes based on heritage, not religion.

    Judaism is the religion only.

    IMHO.

    Speaking of, a person's "race" is something they cannot change. So are you suggesting that I should be putting "French" on any form that asks for my race just because my great-great-grandparents were from France?

    Or would my race change if I moved to France?

    Of course, I also have ancestors from Germany, Great Britain and I'm sure some others. Should I have been checking the "multiracial" box when I got my Census forms a couple of years ago? Or does Germany or Great Britain not count because they don't require the same national ancestry for citizenship? Which would make me just "French" again, I suppose (or am I not of the French race anymore if the laws in France have been loosened?)

    Wow... its time for you to use your brain.. you know? that lump 3 feet above your a$$.

    First, THE FRAMERS OF THE CONSTITUTION URGED SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE. If you feel different, pack your bags and go kiss the rotting feet of Queen Elizabeth.

    Second, you have no proof that the Israeli gov't wants ONLY Jews in Israel. It is a land for Jews, Christians, Muslims, etc. This is about HOMELAND SECURITY. It is sad that most Palestinians have to suffer(not being able to own land in Jewish areas) because of the insane acts of others. However, Hamas is a dangerous and covert group. Letting them into Jewish areas only means more death and destruction. As long as some Palestinians call for the destruction of Israel, all must be considered dangerous. The day that all Palestinians reject Hamas and terrorist acts is the day Israel welcomes them with open arms as citizens and/or neighbors.

    A few questions:

    1.If their were 100 suicide bombers in america that were from mexico,would it be ok for the usa to go into mexico and domolish it and call it "war"

    2.Ive met 4 Jews,that all said that Jesus was not the son of god and in fact was "morning star aka lucifer',Would njrocket politely give me feed back on this?

    3.Why doesnt anyone ask WHY the suicide bombings are happening.They are happening because of occupation.WHats first chicken or egg.Get rid of occupation,you get rid of suicdie bombings,not the other way around.

    A few answers:

    1) If a militant mexican group came in to the USA and committed 100 suicide bombings, you can bet your sorry a$$ we would send some special forces in to wipe this group off the face of the earth.

    2) Well since Jews don't believe in Hell or the Devil, your "4 jews" were wrong. You are correct by saying that Jews dont believe that Jesus was the son of God. He did not fulfill certain prophecies such as restoring the temple.

    3) You must ask yourself, why does Israel(at certain times) need a military presence in the West Bank/Gaza. Maybe it's because they have been attacked by almost all of its neighbors and don't trust them one ioda. However, propaganda fed Palestinians(not all, but some) believe that Israel is there to oppress them and treat them like animals. They are poor and living conditions aren't getting any better. They don't blame Arafat and other higher ranking Palestinians for stealing aid money. Yes, Arafat does own a PALACE in France. Here is your solution for peace, remove Arafat, remove Hamas, remove the hate.

    I'm Jewish too btw.

    franchise 2001. The real question is whether if the US grabbed part of Mexico and then 100 Mexicans were suicide bombers, all Mexican Americans would be prohibited from owning property in most of the United States, visiting Mexico or having their marriage recognized as valid if with a non Mexican American.

    Justify anything you want in the name of national security I guess.

    I disagree with #1,#2 but with #3 I agree with you.

    #1 leads to wiping out mexican population

    #2 leads to killing people with no guilt since jews dont beleive in hell

    Im many races too btw.Like how it should be.

    Can someone tell me the difference between the US when it basically stole land from the Native Americans and Mexicans, and Israels conquering of terrotories? If Israel should give back won land, should the US give back its land also? Not that were gonna lol, but does anyone see where I am coming from on this?

    Honestly, without ripping a blood vessel out with anger, tell me the difference becuase I legitimately do not understand what the difference is.

    My thanks to anyone who takes the time to reply.

    We are not talking about a few extremists. 50% of Palestinians support the Intifada, and 80+% do not support prosecution of those involved in suicide bombings.

    I think that there are references to Satan in the old testament, which are Jewish scripture. The serpent in the garden of Eden and the Satan's fall from grace.

    Wrong, Israel has left Palestinian territory many times before. The response is invariably a suicide bombing by Hamas. To quote Michael Corleone, "I thought I was out, but they pulled me back in."

    When Palestinians complain about Israeli "racism", because Jews won't allow Palestinians (probable terrorists) to live next door in every neighborhood, I feel like I have just heard a bad joke.

    If a Palestinian sells land to a Jew in the occupied territories, and the sale is public knowledge, the seller is dragged out of his home and murdered in the streets. This has happened many times, and is endorsed by Fatah!

    The hypocrisies and lies from the Palestinians is too much for a rational person to take.
