Well, considering that Jews put emphasis on a "Jewish mother" that makes sense. Of course, nothing is stopping the mother from becoming Jewish if she wants to. > That said, it is not like the National Alliance is saying it will kill you for > doing that, it is saying you should not do it.

Well, I think the difference is that you refer to "the Jews" en masse, but seperate the Neo-Nazi groups out as fringe on the other side. We ought to likewise separate Neo-whatever groups out. Jews in general aren't racist any more than any other group (I suppose you could argue virtually everyone has somewhat of a racist view on something somewhere, but you know what I mean). -Tim -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.
