Are Mormon's the real Jews...?

I'm reeling! Holy catfish! You actually said that? I've never done this, but considering YOUR penchant for doing it and the obvious idiocy of what you just said... CFR!

feel free to find the scripture that identifies His ethnicity

That's not how YOU play this game, sub. The Bible states clearly that he is a decendant of king David (Jewish) : Mathew 1:2-16 and Luke 3:23-38. Of course if you prefer to believe that Joseph and Mary were Swedes tired of cold winters and migrated to Nazareth, you are free to do so.

You posted the Bible as YOUR cfr. Care to quote the passage that says he was not Jewish?

Whats the bet sub thinks Jesus was Black?

If you bother to read, i am not making a claim that He was Jewish or that He was not Jewish, so whoever makes either claim has the burden of proving it.
I simply stated the facts
1. That His ethnicity is never mentioned in the scriptures.
2. That there are theories about what His race/ethnicity is.

In other words, i conveyed the same indifference that the scriptures convey with regards to His race and/or appearance.

But feel free to bring your own evidence to the table after you are finished "reeling"

He was obviously red-headed

and of Asian persuasion

What subby is saying is that he didn't respond to the OP, preferring instead to answer a question that hadn't been asked...

which question?
the question "are Mormon's the real Jews"
or

the question "So, when Jesus was alive He was Jewish, right?"

because, i did actually answer the latter question by showing how the question itself was flawed.

but i admit, i did not answer the first question because it was grammatically weird.

Does my memory fail me, or did the wise me come to the young Jesus seeking the King of the Jews? Mat 2:2

and this exactly determines His ethnicity how?
(especially since the "wise" men were expecting that Christ was the temporal prince not the divine one)

Jewish isn't an ethnicity?

Hmm let's see what your answer to the CFR (the Bible) produces.

Mat 1:1
The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

Genesis 14:13
And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram.

Heb 7:14
For it is evident that our Lord is of Judah, about which tribe Moses said nothing concerning the priests.

So descendant from Abraham = Hebrew
descendant from Judah = Judeo = "Jew"

I know, I know wikipedia as a source.

The Jews (Hebrew: יְהוּדִים‎‎ ISO 259-3 Yehudim Israeli pronunciation [jehuˈdim]), also known as the Jewish people, are a nation and an ethnoreligious group, originating in the Israelites or Hebrews of the Ancient Near East. The Jewish ethnicity, nationality, and religion are strongly interrelated, as Judaism is the traditional faith of the Jewish nation.[3][4][5] Converts to Judaism, whose status as Jews within the Jewish ethnos is equal to those born into it, have been absorbed into the Jewish people throughout the millennia.

Why are we having this discussion again?
