    Lets see: a Hispanic playing a Jew and a Jew playing a Nazi...

    My wife's recently deceased uncle apparently claimed to be a Jew descendant from Spain to gain the acceptance of the Jewish businessmen community in New York and he made a fortune. I found out about that during the funeral eulogy by famed preacher Jorge Raschke. I had to contain myself from laughing.

    Well obviously im talking about not decedents, but converted. Since Jew is not a race. I told you recently i was thinking of converting.

    So he made a fortune just by claiming jew rather than his business practices? How’s that work?

    He was a savvy albeit ruthless businessman. He knew he couldn't make his business as successful as he wanted surrounded by Jewish community that will keep him at bay for not being one of their own. He did some genealogy research (this was in 70s) and 'found out' he was descendant of 'Jews from Spain'. After that 'discovery' he was accepted among the local Jewish community who then patronized his business. Like I said, he made a fortune to the point that he owned a shopping center which he later sold for $10 million. He owned jewelries and other business plus had realty investments.

    I have no recollection of that. Maybe I am at the early stages of Alzheimer's...

    Your identity issues should have a movie and it’s own forum.

    What identity issues? Im America, born and raised. Dad was a Black Puerto Rican, mother was mixed. Grew up in the south Bronx and when I could, i left. My wife is Puerto Rican and I’m happy. What does any of that have to do with religion?
