2)Even if you change what you have said into more general statement that they were persecutted for religion, it is still not true. You have to remember that there are people who practice religion Judaism (as opposed to Christianity, Islam, etc), and there are people who are GENETICALLY Jewish (as opposed to French, German, etc). Hitler was persecuting GENETIC Jews, so your statement that they were persecuted "because of religion" is simply inaccurate.


I wonder how many religious jews are not ethnic jews? Probably less than one percent.


But if you ask how many ethnic Jews are not religious, there is A LOT. I believe that according to today's stats 90% of Jews are atheists.
