Jewish ancestry, believer and follower of Jesus. Jesus was Jewish as well.
I don’t believe God is “bothered”
What’s confusing about that?

Ah so you have a couple of Jewish grandparents then?.. maybe one, a quarter Jew then?...or is it an eighth?..

 

Anyways problems solved..  

 

Just a heads up, Jesus wasn't Jewish, he was invented much the same as Sherlock Holmes was invented, but thats for another day..

 

 

Look on the internet for foundation myths, the Jews picked Moses for theirs, the Romans Romulus and Remus..

I think you will find that almost all serious historians agree that the person known as Jesus Christ actually existed.  Even Richard Dawkins accepts this.

As someone with a lifelong interest in the subject, I can safely say, and without any doubt that he didn't..

 

Richard Dawkins is defaulting to consensus, nothing more..  its easier to conform to consensus than do some research, I suspect he never had the time or inclination to research the subject...

 

On the other hand Richard Carrier has a PHD in ancient history and has written many peer reviewed academic publications on the subject, you should look him up..

Richard Dawkins never had the time or inclination.....really?
Hmmm...
he has devoted the best part of his life’s work to refuting the claims of the bible.
Not wanting to derail this thread away from what is “making the news”
Here’s an interesting article from The Guardian, not really known for being a pro-Christian publication and while I don’t believe for one second that this will change your mind, it will at least serve to give the subject a wider perspective.

That’s right. I get to choose. Thankfully I’m not subjected to what the kardashians are doing either.

 

I never understand the fascination in the Kardasians... Kim K looks like she is deformed below the waist...
