    I chased a robber with a .45 while naked at 3AM once. Does that count?

    I noticed it.
    I think only Jerry was/is Jewish. Also there were a lot of episodes that involved Jewish friends and the comedy that surrounds Jewish life in New York.

    I want to own a place where if I want I can shoot tequila bottles off the porch railing with the 12ga while naked at 2am and not have the cops called on me, as opposed to just renting like back in college. Wait, what?

    If the moms Jewish the kid is Jewish. Fathers don’t have anything to do with it.

    But the Costanza’s were not Jewish.

    Being Jewish is a religion, not an ethnicity.

    Jason Alexander is Jewish, and Larry David is Jewish. The Costanzas? Maybe, maybe not.

    They never said what religion the Costanzas were. George converted to Latvian Orthodox just to be with a girl (who ultimately rejects him).

    To be a Jew by birth ones mother has to be Jewish. One can also convert....

    And it’s absolutely an ethnicity. Many Jews including my wife are not a practicing Jews nor do they believe in god. Yet they are consided Jewish by other Jews and identify as Jewish.

    FWIG I’d go so far to say the vast majority of Jewish people look at it as cultural heritage/ethnicity more than a religion.

    Not trying to argue. Anyone can identify themselves as whatever they want. I'd agree there is a Jewish culture, and many share ancestral DNA, but I'd disagree it's an ethnicity. Jewfaq.org seems to agree with me, but to each their own.

    Seems that depends..............

    Jewish identity is also commonly defined through ethnicity. Opinion polls have suggested that the majority of Jews see being Jewish as predominantly a matter of ancestry and culture, rather than religion.[1][2]

    Thanks for the link. Very interesting IMV.

    I was obviously speaking of the “American Jew” as that’s really all I know. The first paragraph in my quote below sums up everything I’ve been exposed to.

    In a way it actually provides a valid argument twards ethnicity although you’d obviously need to add a American or Ashkenazic in front of the word Jew.

    So in that sence you are right- it is not an ethnicity as a whole. Yet breaking it down certain sects are perhaps ethnic groups on their own?

    The important bit from that link for those who may care->

    Most secular American Jews think of their Jewishness as a matter of culture or ethnicity. When they think of Jewish culture, they think of the food, of the Yiddish language, of some limited holiday observances, and of cultural values like the emphasis on education.

    Those secular American Jews would probably be surprised to learn that much of what they think of as Jewish culture is really just Ashkenazic Jewish culture, the culture of Jews whose ancestors come from one part of the world. Jews have lived in many parts of the world and have developed many different traditions. As a Sephardic friend likes to remind me, Yiddish is not part of his culture, nor are bagels and lox, chopped liver, latkes, gefilte fish or matzah ball soup. His idea of Jewish cooking includes bourekas, phyllo dough pastries filled with cheese or spinach. His ancestors probably wouldn't know what to do with a dreidel.

    There are certainly cultural traits and behaviors that are shared by many Jews, that make us feel more comfortable with other Jews. Jews in many parts of the world share many of those cultural aspects. However, that culture is not shared by all Jews all over the world, and people who do not share that culture are no less Jews because of it. Thus, Judaism must be something more than a culture or an ethnic group.

    That corroborates what I thought I remembered, a whole lotta ‘jewishness’.
