Jewish Tartan

[macwilkin]

I've resisted posting a particular comment to this thread, because I don't want to steer the thread in another direction that might get me in trouble with the MODS.

But since when has a person’s religion had anything to do with national origin?

Why is it assumed that you can’t be Jewish AND Scottish?

I say this because I have two Jewish friends; one a MacDermit and another a MacTavish.

Perhaps we should all stick to the subject of tartans rather than delving into the subject of religion.

I think that this is where Jewish identity crosses the boundary of religious affiliation and ethnicity. Although argued by some, many--if not most--claim it as both, since it involves blood ties.
