Man, making and commenting on Jumblr posts as someone who is racially and ethnically but not religiously Jewish is rough sometimes. I'm so tired of people going "your username says you're a Christian so you have no place in this discussion. Shut up!" First off, just because I'm a Christian doesn't mean I'm not also a Jew. Not all Jews are by way of their religion! Like, I shouldn't have to give a detailed account of my lineage every single time I say something in a community that I'm a part of??? Like, maybe don't assume someone's an outsider just because their username and profile picture doesn't explicitly mention their status as part of the community??? I'm sorry(/sarc), I didn't realize my faith in Jesus invalidates my heritage as a Jew, descended from a long line of Rabbis, and (as far as my parents have told me) from the tribe of Levi!
