Supporters of the alternative school have consistently dismissed any racial notion of Jews over the past centuries, citing the ongoing failures to provide a robust test for Jewishness and the rich historical, archeological, and linguistic evidence for Jews’ history of assimilations and mixtures with non-Jewish populations rather than seclusion periods. This position can be summarized as: “A Jew is a Jew because he chose to be a Jew and not because he was forced – because of biology or by some external social force – to define himself as a Jew”.’ |

:{{not done}}. Although there's a correlation, neither "race" nor "ethnic group" typically refer to populations which are exclusively bounded by genetics. See our articles on ] and ]. ] (]) 02:17, 3 May 2024 (UTC) |

::::: The first two clauses seems mostly a substitution of longer words for shorter ones, with no apparent change in meaning or other improvement I can see. As far as the last clause, given that Islam is one of the three ], and the many links mentioned in the lead paragraph of ], the word ''profound'' seems an accurate description, and not puffery. |
|
:That's not exactly the case. European Jews are all practically the same genetic group,but Ashkenazim do have a percentage of at least 20% Slavic+Germanic which makes them a bit different from Italkim, Sephardim, and Romaniotes, but other than that they're mostly all southern European and Levantine.

:We are an in fact an ethnic group. Stop trying to erase our history. Enough. |
|
|
:The argument presented here seems to cherry-pick findings from genetic studies to push an agenda that diminishes the validity of Jewish ethnicity. By focusing solely on genetic diversity within Jewish populations, it disregards the broader context of Jewish identity, which encompasses a rich tapestry of ], ], and ]. |
|
|
:Reducing Jewishness to a mere collection of genetic markers overlooks the lived experiences and shared history that have shaped Jewish communities for centuries. It perpetuates a reductionist view that undermines the complexity of Jewish identity and ignores the cultural, religious, and historical factors that bind Jewish people together. |
|
|
:Moreover, the dismissal of the concept of a "Jewish Typus" and the assertion that Jews are not "genomically distinct" from non-Jews without acknowledging the broader context of Jewish history and identity is deeply troubling. It not only overlooks the resilience of Jewish communities in maintaining their distinctiveness throughout history but also echoes ] that seeks to delegitimize Jewish identity. |
|
|
:This argument not only fails to provide a comprehensive understanding of Jewish ethnicity but also risks perpetuating harmful stereotypes and biases against Jewish people. It's important to approach discussions about Jewish identity with nuance and sensitivity, recognizing the multifaceted nature of Jewishness beyond genetic markers. |
|
|
:In addition, I must point out what I feel is utmost hypocrisy. |
|
|
:1. '''Selective Application of Identity''': People who argue that Jews are solely a religious group often ignore the fact that Jewish identity is not simply religion, in fact the religion itself centers around the ethnic and tribal identity of the jewish people, the practices itself center around the Land of Israel, that is what it is. One example is the ], plus the ], etc. |
|
|
:2.'''Ignoring Historical Prejudice''': Historically, Jews have faced discrimination and persecution based on their ethnicity, regardless of their religious beliefs. Anti-Semitic rhetoric often targets Jews as a racial or ethnic group, regardless of whether they practice Judaism. Denying the ethnic dimension of Jewish identity while perpetuating stereotypes and prejudice against Jews as a group is contradictory. |
|
|
:Disregarding Self-Identification: Many Jews identify strongly with their ethnic or cultural heritage, even if they are not religiously observant. Dismissing Jewish identity as purely religious disregards the self-identification and lived experiences of Jewish individuals and communities who see themselves as part of a broader ethnic or cultural group. |
|
|
:3.'''Double Standards''': Those who claim Jews are only a religious group may fail to apply the same logic to other religious communities. For example, they may acknowledge the ethnic or cultural aspects of other religious groups, such as Muslims or Hindus, while denying the same complexity to Jews. This double standard reveals a bias against Jews and undermines the consistent application of principles of identity and diversity in ]. |
|
|
:The other thing I notice is the ] of you attempting to deny the racial or ethnic dimension of Jewish identity in order to justify speaking about Jews as a unified group, ]. ] (]) 15:00, 24 May 2024 (UTC) |
