What Kind of Jew Are You?

Why is Sephardic there but Ashkenazi isn't. Looking at it, it seems like you assume that Orthodox equates to Ashkenazi, who were only the Germanic Jews. Also, what about the Arab Jews or the Indian Jews (Yes they existed).

on a five star scale i give this chart, or am i too overwhelmed by the titling of the subject, twenty nine stars, but essene could also be branched out, Nazarite/Nazarene for one.

thank you.

So most everyone is Christian origin?

i remember reading that roman catholicism had a lot to do with the creation of islam. or they actually wrote most of the koran.

How did Mormonism grow from Methodism?

dont mess with me i know jew jitsu

i mean, ah, shalom!

That chart is a load of rubbish. One of the many errors is the assumption that the listed religions are monolithic in the sense that they remain constant throughout their history and across geography. Not so. Judaism is itself influenced by a variety of sources and has never been monolithic.

The chart is so wrong in so many ways. The lines between religions is supposedly showing development (influence?) from one to another. So, what was Christianity before Paul if he is its first interpreter? But he was of the Pharisaic tradition so that line has to be re-drawn. Judean Christianity is a misnomer. The earliest competing tradition was Galilean or does the chart mean Jerusalem? Then that would have to be part of 1st century Judaism before the destruction of the Second Temple. After that everything changed.

Cathars? Why does this heresy get a place?

Sadducees? They ARE the Northern Tribal which is a meaningless term anyway.

i am jewbaca!

....Good question.

the way i understood it is that joseph smit was a methodist before he had his vision and found the ancient writings which he used to become the "new moses" and write the book of mormon
