WOO HOO!! me too. my mom was jewish and even though i went to a bible college (and later shifted gears) i was proud to say that i was half jewish. most of the time i'd say i was jewish, not needing to provide an explanation.

like you, i resent someone telling me what i can and cannot be based on archaic (or even new) rules. i used to tell friends that if there was another search and seizure of jews, i'd walk proudly with "real" jews.

thanks for your post!
