Never been in an asilium. Have you ? Have seen some Mosques. Have you ? Was forbidden from entering St Peter, Rome, because had shorts of (age 14), wish they weren't so harsh on me. Most beautiful cathedral : St Mark place, Venice. Heard Lady Arafat likes it too. Do you ? Haven't ever been in a Jewish temple. Have you ?

It is not a divinity or a book that can make me a Jew, out of me at least. Fine when/if for others, no objection whatsoever, for any religion. But a set of ideas. And they better be moral, non violent and quite ethical, and above all open to criticism, like you do now. Be careful. You may become one if you go on, and the Taliban will put me on their death list with a simple emailed Fatwa.

Hitler didn't care whether a Jew believed in God or not. For these purposes, I would go with Hitler's definition of who is a Jew, since it it still has broad support in many neo-nazi, muslim, and other antisemitic circles. To fully protect the persecuted, you often have to look at the definitions and intentions of the persecutors, and not the theological beliefs of the innocents who are in the crosshairs of a rifle.
