I posted the question in Politics and Other Controversies because race is a frequent topic of discussion here.
Thus, you DID mean for it to be a race-related discussion - not just "who are you dining with tonight" casual chat, as that other poster was implying. And if you didn't mean for it to stray, or turn into a race debate, you obviously haven't been paying attention on P&OC.
Jews are the children of Abraham, and descendants of Jacob, who was named Israel.
Yeah, that... I guess.
Seriously didn't mean for this to turn into a "race vs religion" debate, or even anything related to Jewish heritage. All I said was that racism still exists, but clearly my overall point was ignored for petty bickering. Oh well, I should have expected that! Moving on now.
But but but... I have Slavic genes too, and have never heard of these DNA tests naming someone as Eastern Orthodox. I'm not saying there's a "Jewish gene," just that it goes deeper than whether you keep Shabbos.
No, no deeper than that. Religion is a man made item, not related to biology at all.
Being a specific religion is by choice, a person has no choice in their genetics.

My question ----> When was the last time you had a meal with a person of a different race?
Take it for what it is.
With all the discussion on race in this forum, I thought it would be interesting to find out when the last time you all had a meal with someone of another race.
