Rebecca Dube, The Forward: When bad people want to be Jewish

Title:Who Is A Jew?

A jew is anyone who calls themselves jewish. If Mr. Taylor declares himself to be jewish then he is jewish. Judaism has no central authority to regulate who is a jew and who is not a jew. If I were to tell people I was jewish that would make me jewish. Other jews could say I wasn`t jewish but that would just be their opinion.
