I mean it is accurate.

2019-09-19 02:49:37 UTC  

Ethnic Jews exist

2019-09-19 02:49:46 UTC  

You see though

2019-09-19 02:49:47 UTC  

Then religious Jews

2019-09-19 02:49:51 UTC  

Maybe we could call them Israelite?

2019-09-19 02:49:55 UTC  

Yes

2019-09-19 02:49:55 UTC  

Their depopulation rate peaked around the 14-1600s, @Snake. It was something like nearly 90% had already died off, if memory serves me just.

2019-09-19 02:50:09 UTC  

@Jeremy yeah that’s what I remember

2019-09-19 02:50:18 UTC  

90% is the number

2019-09-19 02:50:18 UTC  

Then, you had the Spanish missionaries, carrying the pox.

2019-09-19 02:50:26 UTC  

Lol.

2019-09-19 02:50:57 UTC  

They were practically an extinct civilization by the time we touched ground, and what was left of them were warring tribes.

2019-09-19 02:50:58 UTC  

Because nothing really ties all ethic Jew populations together. Nothing makes you inherently jewish, however they all have some Israelite DNA

2019-09-19 02:51:04 UTC  

They aren't really Jews, per say

2019-09-19 02:51:08 UTC  

We'd buy some land from one tribe, and another would object.

2019-09-19 02:51:18 UTC  

And this is coming from a guy who's Ashkenazi

2019-09-19 02:51:18 UTC  

We'd enforce our property rights, thereafter.

2019-09-19 02:51:24 UTC  

As we rightfully did.

2019-09-19 02:51:37 UTC  

Quetzoqoatl is Jesus change my mind.

2019-09-19 02:51:45 UTC  

@Tubby the Skelly Bones still it’s a ethnic group

2019-09-19 02:51:48 UTC  

Ashkenazi Jews rise up

2019-09-19 02:51:52 UTC  

Maybe you don’t like the term

2019-09-19 02:51:57 UTC  

Which fair enough

2019-09-19 02:51:59 UTC  

I don't hate the ethnic group, just the term

2019-09-19 02:52:04 UTC  

Lithuanian heritage represent

2019-09-19 02:52:07 UTC  

Obviously lmao

2019-09-19 02:52:11 UTC  

I'm in the ethnic group lol

2019-09-19 02:52:17 UTC  

Yeah lol

2019-09-19 02:52:33 UTC  

Idk I don’t really dislike any of the terms

2019-09-19 02:52:39 UTC  

To me a Jew is someone who practices Judaism

2019-09-19 02:52:46 UTC  

me too

2019-09-19 02:53:13 UTC  

Indeed.

2019-09-19 02:53:17 UTC  

Yeah but Judaism has intertwined its religion with its ethnic identity

2019-09-19 02:53:26 UTC  

So...

2019-09-19 02:53:31 UTC  

It’s like

2019-09-19 02:53:40 UTC  

They’re is a lot of overlap

2019-09-19 02:53:48 UTC  

It just makes sense to me

2019-09-19 02:54:03 UTC  

Not every ethnic Jew is religious

2019-09-19 02:54:05 UTC  

Obviously

2019-09-19 02:54:18 UTC  

yeah I'm an atheist

2019-09-19 02:54:21 UTC  

But a lot of religious Jews are ethnically jewish
