what is wrong with U don't U have a business to run or kids to take care of...how much time am I going to declare that what I stated was based off my experiences and opinions...why is it so important for U to prove to me this? and no matter how much Jews are here, no matter what U tell the fact that I have never met one is still not gonna change and that was my original point form morning!

That's BLACK Jamaicans that are claiming that they are Jewish descendants. Real Jews are abundant in the Island, just go to Shabbat services love Friday night okay and you will see how FULL the temple is. Also, that is not the only temple in the island dear.

wow...200 Jews...No matter how far out of my parish I went what is the probability that I'm gonna meet 1 Jew? The odds are 200:3000,000... U still have no point....U sound like U take offense still so drop it...We all are Jews ok? If U could read, U would have noticed I previously stated that there are Jews here, I just don't think its that much that we all got some Jew in us!! I also said I have never met any...that is MY experience! not that they aren't any here!!

This is the gleaner and I quote: "As 2005 approaches the Jewish community is preparing to celebrate 350 years of free religious practice in Jamaica. Today the numbers have dwindled to close to 200 practising Jews. However, that number would be much larger if it were a measure simply of religious bloodlines, as many Jamaicans are descendants of Jews although they do not officially practice Judaism." So sad that many natives such as yourself don't even get within 1 mile outside of your Parish.

You know, which Parish do you live in. It's really sad, have you even been outside of a 2 mile radius. You sound like a typical country girl, probably from SAV.
