Yesterday, we purchased a book on Amazon (see photo). The author died recently under very strange circumstances (say he jumped to his death from his high-rise apartment). Now he has disappeared from Wiki. What is going on in this world, pinch me please, I must be dreaming this stuff up!

Cancel Culture. They just got Dr. Seuss.

I’m pretty certain that no kid, ever, developed their opinions of other races from what they saw in a Seuss book.
It’s a crazy world.
We have one of my mothers school textbooks from the late forties. It talks about eugenics, and how white people are smarter then blacks, and that orientals are smartest of all. In a school text book. That, I find offensive. A Chinese guy with a rabbit in a pot not so much.
On a side note, my mom was always quite racist. I guess it’s how many were raised back then. She really hated Jews.
As a Christmas present my daughter had my DNA done. Turns out I’m part ethnic Jew.

Jewish is a religion, not an ethnicity.

This depends on the person your speaking with and there point of view. While it is a religion, it does cover a group of people from a very certain specific area of the world. A normally close nit closed door group that keeps to themselves while not normally marrying outside of there religion will after many year develop there own specific traits. This has been and is still seen today through out the world. This is nothing new anywhere throughout the world.

Opinions will vary.

Dating a Jewish women doesn’t qualify you in any area of this debate but it will show your short comings very quickly. I have Jews in my family and they even argue amongst themselves over topics like this.

This area, religion is in the top three topics I normally will very lightly talk about since it can piss people off rather quickly and to a great degree.
We as a group should just leave this one alone & not bother with it any more.
 
Who's doing the picking and choosing for us.

They are Israelites, not Jews. Jewish is a religion. I also have Family that practice the Jewish religion. He is of Russian descent, and my Aunt converted when they married. Their children, my first cousins, are also Jewish. Again, READ THE BIBLE!!!

Dating her doesn't "qualify" me, but it did cause me to educate myself on the Jewish religion. You should do the same, as having Jewish family doesn't "qualify" you.
And what part of the world are you speaking of? Israel? Which only came to be recognized in 1948 as the State of Israel?
Russia? Germany? Poland? Czechoslovakia? Because that's where most of the Worlds' Jews were concentrated until WWII.
Or maybe Brooklyn and Long Island? Please educate me.
And keep the personal attacks out of it, because I know that you would cry to the Mods if I did it to you.
 
The below quotes prove s right. Thank you very much. I could not have done any better.

Israelites from Israel, Jews from Judea.
Care to split more hairs? I can do this all day long before I open up a bible. Take your own advice before opening up your mounts again.
And what bible are you in now?

Thats correct it doesn’t qualify you but it doesn’t seem to stop you from making ***************. Again, your bible skills are lacking.

LMAO, I’m just going to the last line of it.
Only you would think that. Oh, all prior, it’s not even worth commenting on since it’s leaving the main focus unless your trying to tell me that’s where Jews come from.

Please don’t reply and make yourself look stupid.
Just drop it.

Judaea, yes you spelt it wrong, was part of the land (Palestine) that the ISRALEITES conquered and inhabited. Before that it was the Canaanites, NOT JEWS!!!
*********
I warned you about the personal attacks!!

PS Your penmanship skills are seriously lacking. Maybe instead of reading the Bible, you should start with a 3rd grade English book.

I warned him after the FIRST personal attack. He did it again. Funny how you don't say a word until I respond.
