Are jews an ethnic group or a religious group. 

Was the Scott in the joke that causing all this controversy a JEW. Or was
the Jew a SCOTT.

There are Italian jews and Scottish jews and Black jews. There are
even  Canadian jews.  I know Canadian(of other religious persuasion.
Notice I said religious not ethnic), find it very hard to accept this fact.

Are catholics an ethnic group?
Are protestants an ethnic group?

Would you say that catholic Canadian is 

	a.  a canadian
	b. an ethnic

Then why do you classify jews as an ethnic group. 

Does Luisa D'Amato and the editors of The Kitchener-Waterloo Record
know the difference between an ethnic groups, and a religious groups.

The opinion expressed here are my own
