I was told by someone (non-Jewish) the other day that it isn't appropriate to say somebody is a Jew. They should be called a 'Jewish person'. According to this guy, 'Jew' is the equivalent of calling somebody a 'Jap' or a 'Paki'.
Is he having me on, or is this actually something I should be avoiding?
