Actually you didn't explain anything. You stated an opinion. An opinion I partially agreed with. And whether you think jews are a race or not, Jews do believe they are as another poster stated a race, religion and philisophical way of life.
As I (actually) attempted to explain to you, there are jewish scholars who would not consider me a Jew because my mother was not born jewish.
If you are going to be condescending please make sure you can back up what you say instead of assuming your opinion is fact.
Mormons are a religion, we know this. Jewish people trace their heritage and philisophical belief thousands of years back to egypt (please no assaults about who the real jews are, please see my earlier posts) and consider their religion to be in their blood so to speak.
Did I use words that were too big for you ashley, I can use smaller ones if you like.
Now that's being condescending!

A Jewish Muslim?
Or what if he converts to Christianity?

Colonel, firstly the people you refer to looked middle eastern, not African. The reason for that is an amazing one. It's because they were from the middle east. Not Africa.
Where is Eygpt? Certainly ain't in the Middle East last time I checked. Furthermore, there is a verse in the New Testament that depicts Simon as being from Niger. Where is Niger? See, you need to read and then you would know.
In any event, for you to compare your theory on the "real" jews being black to some trend of white people "stealing" black entertainment is insensitive and ignorant.
I just call it like I see it. Rock and roll was never started by whites but it is dominated completely by whites. Don't get mad at me for telling the truth. Its happened ovber and over again.
You feel that you can state your case that the millions of Jewish people in the world today are full of # and use Eminem as your supporting argument. Give me a break.
No, I use the Old Testament and the New testament---not just Eminem. He is just an example.
