ORIGINAL: vincentML How ignorant. You have no understanding of the varieties of Jewish culture nor of their history and yet you have the gall to make sweeping proclamations from your clueless mind. Sad that you are so uninformed. I'll just leave this here so Termy can remind himself you don't make personal attacks. (Termy, you're a fucking moron.) quote:
Most Jews in Europe and the United States are Ashkenazim. Kind of irrelevant to the Jews in Israel. quote:
They are not a sect. Their mitochondrial genome is traced to four (I believe) women from the Mediterranean at the time the second temple was destroyed. There is no genetic evidence to connect the overwhelming majority of European and American Jews to an exodus from the Middle East in the 8th Century CE. The mitochondrial genome you refer to identifies local women as the prime source of mitochondrial dna for the Ashkenazi. As such, attempting to use mitochondrial lineage as an attempt to prove anything in relation to Jewish history (which, of course, is patrilineal) is kind of stupid. The Jews allowed people to convert. Some of those locals were no doubt the four founders you refer to. However, to fully appreciate your mistake, you have to understand that the in the 11th century Ashkenazi Jews composed only three percent of the world's total Jewish population. What happened to all the others? Why, they were probably murdered by Muslims of course. Congratulations on reading, but not understanding. Again. Thank you for playing, but you're fucking TERRIBLE at this game. You fucking moron.
