I am a Jew and know a few of you are too. Recently I've been wondering what constitutes one. I was born a Jew, but I don't practice. My parents pretty much didn't. Their parents didn't either. So how am I am Jew? Is it an ethnicity? Some people say many Jews get offended if you call them a race, feeling they link the connotation to the Holocaust etc. I don't get offended though. But maybe I'm not a true Jew? Some say it's not a race as people of any ethnicity can convert. But how is this relevant to me and my 'lineage'?

Any thoughts?
