0.25 ppm degree hmm, lets see, 5,000 years, about 4096, that is 212, appr 16-32 years for a generation, appr 28 of chromosome and gene combination, 128-256 generations Well, I guess I am 255/256 Abraham and another 255/256 Ishmael as good as most, 99% proof?? Or was it 1/256 Abraham and somewhat more of CharleMange?? No wonder it gets fuzzy after at least 5 generations and worse over time, already after nine generations it surely is a real mess within the tribe. Ouch, with about 2**128 original grandfathers, what should I claim?? That Intel makes a 128 bit computer?? Getting funnier with the original chimpanzee, who is already some 99.5% sure.

ET I was just teasing len. Israel is not about blood ties to Abraham but about modern Jews. re: With the ten lost tribes of Israel we're probably all two degrees separated from Abraham. probably true..... The lost tribes were probably wiped out though, it is surprising that any Jews managed to survive through fairly hostile environment. Hitler was the most recent but not the first who tried to exterminate the Jews.
