Judaism Is A Race
Dear ladies and gentlemen, If Judaism is supposed to be a religion and not a race then why is a Jew categorized as being a Jew instead of being categorized as an American or Polish or German? Christians aren’t categorized as being Christian. Their categorized by what region their heritage is from. (Irish or Italian). So why are Jews categorized and defined and labeled by their religion while everyone else is categorized by country? Its Because Judaism is treated as a race that’s why.

No - ITs becausue we never had a country! It has only been 65 years since Israel existed. WE are united by language, food, customs and traditions just as national groups you mentioned are, Italians have Italian food and language, Polish, German and Irish etc each have their own and hapen to practice the same religion. Jews from all over Europe speak ONE language which is Yiddish sometimes in addition to the language of the geopgraphical border they live within. Judeism is not a Race it is a Culture. we eat the same " Jewish" foods. This is not rocket science. Look it up. It is history. Hebrew is the language of the torah and is ONLY spoken in Israel which again, is 65 years young , in synagogue . You are confusing cultural identificatio from Race.
