Strange. I always thought of myself as Jewish, but found out today I was really Hungary.

Good news! Unless he's trying to claim some rite of Judaism (e.g. a Jewish marriage; something which involves determining his "Jewish" status), it doesn't matter. It's more like finding out his family was Swiss.

// my family is German, Hungarian, Russian, Polish, Spanish and probably many others, just in the last 150 years

In this case, it is usually genetic. That would make you wrong.

Very bad Internet translation (i.e. word by word never works) Ennuipoet, I'm afraid. Doesn't make any sense at all. I guess you wanted something like this.

According to the article, he's already using a "I haven't been acting Jewish so it doesn't count" defense.

I have Christian parents, but I am not even part Christian. But if I had Jewish ancestors, I would somehow be all or part Jewish? WTF?

Jewish is actually more than a religion.

divgradcurl: luckily, like all religions, you aren't it unless you want to be.

Things get a little strange here: there is indeed a religion whose followers call themselves Jewish, but there is also an ethnicity whose followers call themselves Jewish (actually, this is an oversimplification: there are several such ethnicities, though they don't usually dispute one another's claims). The "Jewish" referred to in this headline is of the ethnic variety, and that's harder to escape from than simply renouncing one's faith.

A lot of modern anti-Semitism is based on the ethnic version, and if TFA is any indication, this guy's anti-Semitism is as well. This actually fairly new, though, well, you know who else did it (some say he even invented it, and he was certainly the first to make it popular).

Jewish refers to both an ethnic group and a religion. Film at 11.

if your momma was Jewish, YOU are Jewish, and she was Jewish if Her momma was. It's basically a matrelineal thing, and because it's both a religion and tribal identity, conversion/apostasy doesn't get you out of it.

It's actually debated in the more modern parts Jewish community, if "Jewish" is an ethnicity anymore. Sure, traditionally that's the case, but then it means that some Jews are less Jews than others, and that's problematic.
