After hearing reference to a "mitzvah" in another thread, I wanted to see how many of us there were on here.

Winston,
I used the term mitzvah to describe a good deed that someone had committed. I'm not Jewish, but I've been pro-Israel since I was about 12.

About as many as on THR, probably.

I'm not, but based on THR I'd say quite a few.

I have to say the topic title caught my eye...I opened it expecting to see a news report of the beginnings of a pogrom in one country or another, or perhaps a historic parallel between registration ("Check in") and persecution.

Jewish ancestory here, but that is about it. Closest I come to anything be observant is that I am good friends with a orthodox rabbi.

Right here Smiley

And don't worry.  We all know you too well to believe you would say something like that in a perjorative manner.

When flumoxxed, I tend to have an irrisistible urge to slap my forehead with the heal of my hand and exclaim...OY, MAROHN! and then cross myself.
I think I must be an Irish Catholic Jew.

Does it count if we were educated in Jewish schools?

As an Irish (former) Catholic, I identify and empathize with Jews.  Maybe it's the guilt component.

I did eat a bagel this morning.

RileyMC,

   Sorry, but when I started seeing ham and cheese on bagels at restaurants, I knew they had passed out of our realm and into Americana.

Have some gefilte fish and horseradish; don't worry, the taste will grow on you!  Cheesy

Raised in a spilt Baptist/Jewish Family...not practicing myself, but REALLY confused about how I am going to raise my children..

I enjoy bacon a little too much to take the plunge into the Jewish thing again.

Some sacrifices are not for us mere-mortal men.

I eat enough bacon and ham to make up for the Jews and Muslims, it'd never work for me.
