Cyprian > how is it you consider yourself Jewish? Either I'm Jewish or I'm "nothing". I'm certainly not Christian or Muslim or Buddhist. So, for the purpose of our discussion, I'll be Jewish. > you're not asserting that you have "Jewish blood"? I have no idea about that. > Can you trace your genealogy back 4,000 years to Abraham? If not, and you claim not to adhere to Judaism, then on what basis are you considered Jewish? If you prefer it, I'll be "nothing". Makes no difference to me. In terms of what I "am", however, even though I'm born in Africa, I'm not allowed to call myself an African. That term is reserved for black Americans -- who may not have had anything to do with Africa for generations. So, you can call me what you like -- as long as you don't call me an African or late for dinner!
