One parent is Irish and the other is Jewish.
So what are the religion and nationality of the other parents and why don't they count?
In this context Jewish is the ethnicity, Mara actually calls it out in the tweet
Jewish is also an ethnicity. That’s why they can be ‘secular’ while still being half Jewish.
Or one parent was Irish and Jewish and the other was french and atheist
You can be raised by one Jewish parent and one Other parent and still not be a follower of Judaism. You might still have a Jewish cultural heritage and place in the world despite differing theological views.
If it’s the mother then they are Jewish, if it’s the father they are not
I didn't know the genes for Judaism were located in the X chromosome.
That’s how they view it
This comes from the religious law. I don’t think it has anything to do with chromosomes. There are still families that traditionally believe that though, despite not being religious. I haven’t met many people who identify as Jewish or partially Jewish due to their father being Jewish though.
