i guess everything is open to interpertation, and god knows on govt forms there are like 10 races listed, but i would say even the most liberal would consider it a religion.

You would be wrong, sue. Judaism is both a religion and an ethnicity. Although not a biological race, Judaism is a "race" in the sense that the word has often been used as a synonym for ethnic group.

Or to put it another way, ask the Nazis and their eugenics programs if the Jews were a separate "race".

GAVESTON, to your two posts to me. I respectfully disagree

1) ""You would be wrong, sue. Judaism is both a religion and an ethnicity. Although not a biological race, Judaism is a "race" in the sense that the word has often been used as a synonym for ethnic group.
Or to put it another way, ask the Nazis and their eugenics programs if the Jews were a separate "race" ""

** i am not in any way saying that Russia, Ukraine, Soviet Union doesnt have skeletons in closet, just saying in reponse to some who shall go namoless Blacks were never enslaved by them-us. in other words "glass houses"

2) ""speak for yourself Nammo. you may consider yourself a racist but i certainly am not. then again i wasnt born in a country that made black people their slaves
Perhaps not, sue, but your purported native country did a fine job of subjugating Siberians, the peoples of the Baltics and Ukraine, and many others. ""

**I respectfully disagree with you. an enthic group is not a race. italian, french, Croatation, Serb are not races, they are enthnic groups. The Nazis saying Jews are a seperate race was just a way for them to distance themselves from them, to make them seem subhuman so they can kill them with no remorse.

in any event its a pleasure to have a discussion without any name calling or other nonsense. thank you
