Today, I watched my mother tell a man that the holocaust was "a good thing" and "necessary for population control". That man was my girlfriend's father. Who is Jewish. FML

Good God, man…
Today, my dad tried to convert me, as he has numerous times before, and asked me why I was an atheist. After giving him a polite explanation and asking him if we could drop the subject, he nodded slowly and said, "You must be menstruating or something. You'll change your mind." FML

Today, my grandmother tried to lecture me about discrimination. This is the same woman who lies about her grandchildren's race, and tried to convince a Jewish person that the Jews were responsible for the Holocaust. FML

Today, my dad forced the whole family to sit through a two-hour lecture, with supporting research, on how the "Mayan prophecy" is actually a load of shit fabricated by conmen. Nice to know he thinks we're all borderline brain-dead, gullible fuckwits who believed it to begin with. Thanks, dad. FML

Today, after a long discussion, my dad still doesn't understand how evolution works, and thinks it's a myth that was debunked a long time ago. FML

Not the rugby team!
Today, at dinner, I stumbled over the words of the prayer and my dad is now convinced I’m losing interest in my religious responsibilities. To “bring me back to the Lord” he is trying to force me to break up with my girlfriend and quit the rugby team. FML

Heritage not hate, huh?
Today, my father informed me that I will have no chance of dating a good man if I keep up with these interracial relationships. And that he won't be supporting me through college if I continue this "rebellion." My boyfriend is half black and loves the same music, sports, and movies as my dad. FML

Judaism is the religion, it is like saying if you believe in Christianity you are a Christian, or if you believe in Islam you are a Muslim. If you believe in Judaism you are a Jew. The part that confuses some is that anybody from Israel and has ancestors who were native to that area (other areas around Israel as well, ie. Jordan or Palestine) and believed in Judaism is of the Jewish race.

I live in a very Jewish area and dated a few Jews. The question is if they're a practicing Jew, meaning if they still believe in Judaism, do the high holidays etc. But it is also considered a race. I've dated two diff guys who considered themselves half Jewish because one parent was Jewish and the other was not. Jews/Jewish is the race of ppl. judaism is a religion that most Jews practice.
