You killed not me, but my character. In this case You have acted dishonestly breaking the prisoner us the contract. You have not acted as a worthy man, so this is not considered.

1. No, you are wrong.Any person(except for people with Jewish blood from the maternal line) who has converted to Judaism, still remain a stranger.Such people are called proselytes.
After reading your dictionaries I understood the reason of misunderstanding between us.
Jew
n. & v.
—n.
1 a person of Hebrew descent or whose religion is Judaism.
2 sl. offens. (as a stereotype) a person considered to be parsimonious or to drive a hard bargain in trading.
In my posts I was referring to а person of Hebrew descent, but not those whose religion is Judaism.
the truth of the matter is that the Russian - English dictionaries do not make a distinction between the words "еврей"( а person of Hebrew descent) and "иудей"(whose religion is Judaism) by translating it as "Jew".
Please accept my apologies.
