"What do you mean by fruits?"

> Jesus states that one will be able to identify false prophets
by their fruits. False prophets will not produce good fruits.
Fruits, which are a common metaphor in both the Old and New
Testaments, represent the outward manifestation of a person's
faith, thus their behaviour and their works.

When you say that im ancestrally jewish does that mean that one
of my ancestors was jewish and for whatever reason, had to
change identity/religion or conceal the fact that he was jewish?
Saying that im ancestrally jewish may be inaccurate as evil
blood existed in this world long before jews existed.

> Contemporary Judaism. All Jewish religious movements agree
that a person may be a Jew either by birth or through
conversion. According to halakha, a Jew by birth must be born to
a Jewish mother. Halakha states that the acceptance of the
principles and practices of Judaism does not make a person a
Jew.

Just because you have a Jewish ancestor does not necessarily
mean you would be accepted as a Jew by other Jews, or the Jewish
State of Israel in occupied Palestine.

"When you say that im ancestrally jewish does that mean that one

Someone is ancestrally Jewish if they have Jewish ancestors,
whether or not those ancestors changed identity/religion or
concealed their Jewishness.
If they have Jewish ancestors who concealed their Jewishness, we
would call them ancestrally crypto-Jewish.
"Saying that im ancestrally jewish may be inaccurate as evil
blood existed in this world long before jews existed."
Yes, which is why my original statement de-emphasized ancestral
Jewishness:

> If you read the Tanakh and identify with the
Sethites/Israelites, I would consider you at least Jewish enough
to be prohibited from reproducing, irrespective of your
ancestry. Racially Jewish =/= ancestrally Jewish. You may have
no Jewish ancestors, but your tendency to identify with the
Sethites/Israelites may nevertheless be heritable by your own
descendants if you were to have any.

Someone with evil blood predating Judaism and never carried by
Jews could still read the Tanakh and identify with the
Sethites/Israelites. This makes them Jewish enough to be
prohibited from reproducing, even though they have no Jewish
ancestors.
Of course, anyone aware that they have Jewish ancestors cannot
be considered non-Jewish unless they voluntarily refrain from
reproducing.

What do you mean by "tendency to identify"?

If you read the Tanakh and feel yourself rooting for the
Sethites/Israelites rather than for their enemies, you have
displayed a tendency to identify with the Sethites/Israelites.
