By the way, I'm refering to the ethnicity, not the religion

???
Can you explain this ?

Israeli ancestory. For example, Barry G is a Jew, but he is also an atheist.

Umm, how can he be a Jew and an atheist? Jew implies following the Jewish religion. If you mean from Israel in ancestry then I follow you.

It can be used either way, a lot of people are confused about that.

Jew ( P ) Pronunciation Key (j)
n.
1 - An adherent of Judaism as a religion or culture.
2 - A member of the widely dispersed people originally descended from the ancient Hebrews and sharing an ethnic heritage based on Judaism.
3 - A native or inhabitant of the ancient kingdom of Judah.
