    He’s a Jew but not Jewish.

    Like me.

    One is an ethnicity. The other is a religion. It’s easy to get them confused.

      So is everybody here a technical Jew? Like, that’s three of us, and this isn’t a huge community.

        I’m reasonably certain I wouldn’t count. As far as I know there were no Jews (by ethnicity) in my family for the last couple hundred years.

        I do, however, count as a Native American, specifically I’m ¹/16th Lakota.
