In the latest twist in this pretzel of a mess...

Micheal Richards not really Jewish Smiley: lol

Quote:

â€œTechnically, not having been born by blood as Jewish and not formally going into a conversion, it was purely his interpretation of having adopted Judaism as his religion,â€ Rubenstein told The Associated Press on Tuesday. â€œHe told me, â€˜Iâ€™m Jewish,â€™ when I asked him.

Poor stupid *******. With that hole he's dug, he should be in China by now.

Maybe you guys can clear this up: I had heard from a jewish pal of mine that "Jew" is a racial slur, and the correct term is "Jewish". Joph says it's not. Is it?

Now I'm trying to remember the context of our conversation. For example, I wouldn't think that "The Jews wandered the wilderness for 40 years" is a slur, nor is "Three million Polish Jews died in concentration camps during WWII." But I can't remember exactly what I said that day to elict your response.

On a side note, I had to drive into Skokie, Illinois this morning and the Shebrews came onto my MP3 player as soon as I crossed over the city line. Smiley: laugh

I imagine you have to be fairly native to get the joke...

I think you asked if someone was a Jew. Again, I'm basing this solely on her information.

According to a brief gander at the online dictionaries, "Jew" is a perfectly appropriate noun ("My boss became a Jew in 1996") and offensive as an adjective ("My Jew boss").
