Jewish is a religion, not a race. There is nothing hereditary about a religion. Religion is a choice.

This man is despicable for his views, but to say he's a hypocrite just because he has jewish ancestors, is wrong.


It's like saying someone that was born and raised catholic is a hypocrite for speaking out against the catholic church.

He has every right to speak out against any religion he likes, and just because his grandmother was of that religion does not mean he can't.

People are trying to racialize religion, but religion is not a race. just like if someone criticizes islam they are called "racist" but muslim is not a race, so how is it racist??

I was raised catholic and i have every right to criticize catholicism all i ike, and it doesn't make me a hypocrite or a racist.

It's part of the religion to believe that if your mother was a Jew, then you are too.

I uphold his right to be a vile, racist, anti-Semitic pig. However, to call Jews lice-ridden vermin, and to find out he's one too is just too sweet for words.
