An ethnicity or ethnic group is a group of humans who identify with each other on the basis of perceived shared attributes that distinguish them from other groups. Attributes that ethnicities believe to share include language, culture, common sets of ancestry, traditions, society, religion, history, or social treatment. - The English Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia at en.wikipedia.org
Is your argument that because that definition includes the word religion then they are the same thing? Religion is rarely ethnicity and even less so in the west
When people make bold claims with no obvious backing for it, people end up pulling things out of their ass.
You still have not indicated what I’m supposed to know here. Saying something about a religion is disparaging an “ethnicity” for you but you won’t explain why. Citing the definition and having it mention that religion is usually part of it does not clear anything up.
Religion is not ethnicity, and your insistence that it is, without giving anything specific as to the thought process, is sus on your part. You have been given benefit of doubt but you’re not utilizing it.
