Several years ago, my husband Steve and I were watching TV as an American politician of Hispanic descent responded to a challenging question by an antagonistic reporter.
The politician gave such an eloquent and informed answer, sprinkling his response with historical facts, literary allusions, and even dashes of humor, that when he completed his answer, Steve said, “Damn...that is one brilliant guy!”
Reflexively, I expressed what I’ve privately suspected for ages when witnessing similar scenarios: “He’s probably Jewish!”
Steve laughed, but I meant it.
Not long after this episode, I read a book by Jon Entine, a former producer for NBC News and ABC News and the author of several books.

If you want to see brilliance with your own eyes, play the early October interview that Marissa Streit, CEO of Prager University, conducted with Dennis Prager, the radio host. This was Prager's first public appearance since his terrible accident one year ago. The interview is long but very much worth your valuable time. Enjoy it, folks. It will lift your heart.

Jews, Amish, Christians all have good and bad ,intelligent and not so intelligent, but I have to say the Jews I have known some good and some bad they all do appear bright, perhaps that is why they are hated so badly by those who are not so bright.

My Scottish father who was in the Merchant Navy used to tell us when we were kids that everywhere you went in the world you would find a Scotsman, a Chinaman and a Jew.

My son did a DNA thing a couple of years ago. Everything he got back was what I expected except for him being Jewish. A tiny percentage, but there it was. So I wanted to know which parent it came from and since his dad was dead, I took the DNA test. Yep, it's me. The same tiny little percentage, but there. We are part of the Ashkenazi's. I was totally delighted. That was the big surprise of our DNA.

There are a bunch of people down in southern Colorado and northern New Mexico who are Hispanic, but have Jewish ancestry. They’re descended from Sephardic Jews who fled Spain during the Inquisition. Genealogists began looking into them when, once in a while, one of them turned up with a medical condition normally found in the Jewish population.

Okay, let's get this straight. The author of this article called Tucker Carlson "David Duke of the 21st century" and that he has "obsessive hatred of Jews and Israel" because Tucker conducted an interview with Nick Fuentes and Tucker personally disagrees with some of Israel's policies and the influence Israel seems to have over US foreign policy in general. This nonsense will finally stop when these venom spitters at American Thinker finally get sued for slander and defamation of character which they really deserve at this point. Tucker has never said he hates Jews nor that he hates Israel. It is possible to disagree, even vehemently, with the nation state of Israel's policies and not be a Jew hater. We are allowed that right in THIS country.

Mine is Scandinavian, Welsh, Scottish and a tiny bit of Italian. I assume some Roman ancestors dallied with some Scottish lassies up at Hadrian's Wall..

Claiming Tucker Carlson hates Jews is a quite the stretch, and might even be libelous. Tucker is asking two very simple questions, namely, "Why do we give Israel $3B per year, and what does the American taxpayer get for it? If asking that qualifies one for a being full-tilt, "Anti-Semite," then there are going to be an awful lot more MAGA Republicans being stripped of their subscriptions to the "Kabbalah Times." /s
The Apostle Paul, always a source of wisdom in a time of need, stated the eternally desired end-state in Galations 3:28, wherein the Believer in the Lord Jesus Christ will be freed from obeysa
-----------
Galations 3:28 - There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
-----------
Neither traceable lineage to Abraham, nor Jewish "good works" are capable to "Save" anyone, only "The Lord of the Sabbath," our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, has done that, but His Perfect Salvation Work is meaningless for anyone until they personally believe in Him. At that moment of Belief will His Salvation Work become efficacious for the Gentile or the Jew, making them NEW Creatures in Christ. That IS the goal for EVERY member of the human race, as stated so definitively in Acts 4:12.
Acts 4:12 - Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
There is none other under heaven, whereby

So DNA testing can reveal a religion? I think the results that say you are part Jewish could actually be saying you are part Palestinian (as they're called).

"Buesing reports that a 2018 study analyzed DNA from 6,589 individuals across five Latin American countries: Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. The results were staggering. Approximately 23 percent of those sampled had at least 5 percent Sephardic Jewish ancestry, averaging 1 to 4 percent across these nations. This translates to an estimated 136 million Latin Americans who may carry Jewish DNA!"
I guarantee only a tiny, tiny percent of Latin American illegals in USA carry Jewish DNA. :)

Same question as posed by #10. DNA can tell religion?

Genes really get around. Much to the long term benefit for humanity's survival.

The diaspora ( dispersion) of the Jews from Judea began in 597BC and ended in 73 AD . There 3 distinct Jewish groups, the Ashkenazi who first went to France and Germany and then later moved to eastern Europe, the Sephardic who settled in Spain and Portugal and the Mizrahi who spread out across the Middle East and Asia. Though the lived among other ethnic groups they were largely segregated and married within their own population. As a result they maintained their genetic distinctiveness from those around them. Marriage to outsiders was rare compared to other groups and as a result many genetic traits became reinforced over time.
Because each of these three groups were separated for centuries they each developed distinct genetic heritages from one another as well.

Unlike you # 9 my Ashkenazic ancestry allowed me to avoid millennia of selective outbreeding for intelligence.
