It's not news. It's a talking point to refer to.

Henry Louis Gates Jr. does this show and well-known gullible people agree to let the world know their ancestry.

Gates reacts with glee when he can reveal some white person allegedly has black genes.

[yesthatjallen]

Yes, the same guy.

Ashkenazi? Related to Rothschild? Anyone notice the last 4 letters???

[Bellflower]

Seed of Abraham, as many of us are.

I suppose it's fun, in fairness perhaps the Congressman should announce all his newfound heritages. Some of which I'm sure place him in more beneficial minorities. In any case the idea that DNA determines religion, or that there's a definable gene linked to Jews of two millenia ago is specious. Yes, there are mutations in which occur in historically isolated small groups, but they're not usually exclusive.

Could have gotten mixed up with my DNA sample...

Are you a Russian colluder? ;-)

Hysterical comment, which is one reason I read them.

As far as the ethnicity reports, the science is in it’s infancy. The real value of these tests is in matching family members. There have been untold numbers people who have been able to find missing family. I myself was able to find my biological father, and verified my biological mother. I have been able to track down my husband’s missing grandfather, and the tree of my husband’s family, along with his kit attached was instrumental in another adoptee finding her biological father.
