This made me look up the term secular in context to Judaism. How did I not know that until now?

For those that don't know, being Jewish is the only ethnicity in the world that also refers to religion and (though no longer used due to antisemitic usage) national identities. Secular Jews are quite common

Yeah my dad is a Jewish atheist (or agnostic, depending on how much he feels like placating my catholic mom lol)

Please tell me she has, at least once, made a reference to "your people killing my savior"

I know an ethnically jewish/religious catholic couple that do this every time they get into an argument and realize it's stupid to argue about, one of them will go "WELL YOU KILLED MY GOD!" and that's basically the end of the argument because they're too busy giggling.

I wish! My mom is DEVOUT. She has no sense of humor about it. If any of us tried to joke about it she'd send us right to purgatory (aka the catholic pattern buffer).

pattern buffer

I've checked the logs myself, there's no anomalous readings from the pattern buffers. ^Shhhhhhh^

I feel like if the Catholic is Italian it can get funnier with a “no you did”
