Religious Jews are fine, but Jews such as Sanders and Soros whose real religion is socialism do tremendous damage.

If your ancestors were Jewish but you don't believe in God, then you're not a Jew. You're just another white guy who is an atheist.

A significant portion of the population in Israel is secular. Indeed, on Rosh Hashana, the Jewish New Year, the beaches in Tel Aviv are crowded with Jews enjoying the sun and surf. By your definition, none of these people are Jewish because failing to attend religious services on one of the High Holy Days must mean they do not believe in God. The same applies in our country. Many Jews, liberals and conservatives alike, are not religious, but identify with their Jewish heritage and culture. This does not make them any less Jewish than the once or twice a year Jews who attend synagogue and then ignore the religion the rest of the time. All are Jews and, just like everyone else, their views are not all the same on things like religion, politics and economics. But, it doesn’t make them less Jewish, less patriotic or less American. And, it certainly doesn’t turn all non-practicing Jews into socialists.

Nonsense. Jews are an ethnic group.

“If your ancestors were Jewish but you don’t believe in God, then you’re not a Jew. You’re just another white guy who is an atheist.”

Actually, still a Jew. One is Chosen to be Jewish (or you take the mantle on voluntarily). Nothing a man can do can undo the Choice.

He’s just an apikoros (see my profile page for definition).
