Yes. If being a Jew was good enough for Jesus,

If you do not believe in Jesus, He doesn't consider you a Jew:

They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham. But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham. Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God. Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word. Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not. Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me? He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God. (Joh 8:39-47)

“If you do not believe in Jesus, He doesn’t consider you a Jew:”

I believe in a historical Jesus of Nazareth, who may, for all I know, have been executed by the Romans.

And if his Jewishness is something Christians think Jews need to be cured it, I just shake my head.

I absolutely do not believe in J.C. And I could care less whether he considers me a Jew. G-d considers me a Jew, and His is the only opinion that counts to me.
