"Who's a Jew" is not just an Adam Sandler humorous song on SNL--it's an
on-going perplexity, as per this fascinating write-up about the
Marranos' alleged descendants today.

I found the above
article in HAARETZ, an Israeli left-liberal newspaper which has a
worthwhile English version on the internet.

Years ago I subscribed for a year or two to the actual JERUSALEM POST
(in English), which is now
on the internet and is considered rightist under its current publisher.
B-t-w: Wolf
Blitzer was its U.S. correspondent then, tho he probably had an
un-graying beard.

Comment: The article discusses some fascinating though also some tragic
history/anthropology/inter-dynamics that pertain to the psychology,
sociology, and state of being, including self-interpretation &
perspective

Thus My subjective ideas about Jews, Israel, zionism, and non-Jews are
based on both my emotional feelings & my intellectual perceptions of
these phenomena.

It so happens that the first non-native American born in my State of
Georgia was supposedly the child of a Portugese/Brazilian Jewish ship
doctor.

In Savannah, Georgia, today there are seemingly some actual descendants
of some settlers, some of whom were seemingly Marranos & Jews

And what has this got to do with anything?

Everything inter-relates (so see lectures, books, encyclopedias &
newspaper articles to appreciate "relativity")
