this is bullshit all my jewish friends are related to magneto

It’s true I am

Me too

ok so
I’ve been holding back but I need to tell you
I too am related to magneto because I am jewish so

I feel like I need to step in here and clarify that not every Jewish person is related to Magneto.

Basically, all Jews can be divided into four groups based on tribal ancestry: Cohenim, Levites, Israelites, and Magnetoim. Halachically, only Jews who are descended from Magneto through the paternal line are Magnetoim, although you can become a Magnetoim through marriage. For example, my mother’s family are Levites, but because my paternal grandfather wasn’t Jewish, I was, for most of my life, an Israelite. However, my husband is a Magnetoim, so now I am, as well. When we have children, they will also be Magnetoim.

I hope that explains everything!

Also, if you are a non-genetically Jewish adoptee adopted by Jewish parents OR a genetically Jewish adoptee adopted by non-Jewish parents you’re automatically a Magnetoim. It’s a little known Halachic quirk.

Yeah, the Halacha on this is really wonky, because while adoptees automatically fall under the umbrella of Magnetoim, Gerim are usually designated as Israelites, unless they possess the ability to bend metal at will, in which case, they are halachically Magnetoim by default.

Yup! I remember hearing a d’var Torah on this a few years back. It’s really interesting! 

So, uh, what about ethnic Jewish people who can trace their metalbending back to a Bei Fong on the gentile side of their family?

“they couldn’t make the Maximoffs Jewish because they can’t make any reference to Magneto”

did u kno…. magneto is not the only jewish person in the world……

Be careful with this, in 1000 years this could be the most important page of the Tumblr Tractate of the Talmud.

Do you carry star of davids to use as projectiles

They’re actually more intended as hands-free eating utensils. I have a meat set and a dairy set but not everyone is so strict.

(I’ve seen this post a few times, it’s always great :D)

Now, see, the next question is whether mutant powers can be used on Shabbat.

There’s a clear deliniation between passive and active abilities here. For instance, someone who has telepathic communication would not have to (and should not) refrain from it- especially if doing so causes pain. But on the other hand, something like throwing spikes from your hands is forbidden as work.

Also a second note, as we can not put out flames during Sabbath, someone who has accessed fire based abilities before Sabbath may not retract them until they have naturally ran out of the energy to sustain it.
