I haven't a clue. My family is from Morocco, we're Sepharadic, but I'm white with blue-green eyes and have to work really hard if I want a tan. I suspect my family ancestors got to Morocco a very long time ago from somewhere else where people are white and have green eyes. A DNA test is in order.

Shalom - Dox I hope that this is a joke. Fidelity is a very important quality, one of the reasons the Ten Commandments assigns the death penalty for Adultery. I will never call myself an Infidel because I constantly know that Hashem is my G-d and he is with me. As far as from an Islamic perspective I guess I am an Infidel, but that term is not exclusively Islamic. Judaism places very much emphasis on being true to G-d and not worshiping others.Infidel means non Muslim. Infidelity and infidel are not the same. Shalom - Dox : )

From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 : Infidel \In"fi*del\, a. [L. infidelis; pref. in- not + fidelis faithful, fr. fides faith: cf. F. infid[`e]le. See Fidelity.] Not holding the faith; -- applied by Christians to one who does not believe in the inspiration of the Scriptures, and the supernatural origin of Christianity; used by Mohammedans to refer to those who do not believe in Islam. [1913 Webster +PJC] The infidel writer is a great enemy to society. --V. Knox. [1913 Webster]From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 : Infidel \In"fi*del\, n. One who does not believe in the prevailing religious faith; a heathen; a freethinker; -- used especially by Christians and Mohammedans. [1913 Webster +PJC] Note: Infidel is used by English writers to translate the equivalent word used Mohammedans in speaking of Christians and other disbelievers in Mohammedanism. Syn: Infidel, Unbeliever, Freethinker, Deist, Atheist, Sceptic, Agnostic. Usage: An infidel, in common usage, is one who denies Christianity and the truth of the Scriptures. Some have endeavored to widen the sense of infidel so as to embrace atheism and every form of unbelief; but this use does not generally prevail. A freethinker is now only another name for an infidel. An unbeliever is not necessarily a disbeliever or infidel, because he may still be inquiring after evidence to satisfy his mind; the word, however, is more commonly used in the extreme sense. A deist believes in one God and a divine providence, but rejects revelation. An atheist denies the being of God. A sceptic is one whose faith in the credibility of evidence is weakened or destroyed, so that religion, to the same extent, has no practical hold on his mind. An agnostic remains in a state of suspended judgment, neither affirming nor denying the existence of a personal Deity. [1913 Webster]From WordNet (r) 2.0 : infidel n : a person who does not acknowledge your God [syn: heathen, pagan, gentile]From Moby Thesaurus II by Grady Ward, 1.0 : 40 Moby Thesaurus words for "infidel": agnostic, atheist, atheistic, disbeliever, disbelieving, ethnic, faithless, freethinker, gentile, giaour, goy, goyish, heathen, heretic, infidelic, kaffir, minimifidian, misbelieving, non-Christian, non-Jew, non-Jewish, non-Mohammedan, non-Mormon, non-Moslem, non-Muhammadan, non-Muslim, nonbeliever, nullifidian, pagan, profane, secularist, shegets, shiksa, unbeliever, unbelieving, unchristian, uncircumcised, zendician, zendik, zendikite From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) : INFIDEL, persons, evidence. One who does not believe in the existence of a God, who will reward or punish in this world or that which is to come. Willes' R. 550. This term has been very indefinitely applied. Under the name of infidel, Lord Coke comprises Jews and heathens; 2 Inst 506; 3 Inst. 165; and Hawkins includes among infidels, such as do not believe either in the Old or New Testament. Hawk. P. C. b 2, c. 46, s. 148. 2. It is now settled that when the witness believes in a God who will reward or punish him even in this world he is competent. See willes, R. 550. His belief may be proved from his previous declarations and avowed opinions; and when he has avowed himself to be an infidel, he may show a reform of his conduct, and change of his opinion since the declarations proved when the declarations have been made for a very considerable space of time, slight proof will suffice to show he has changed his opinion. There is some conflict in the cases on this subject, some of them are here referred to: 18 John. R. 98; 1 Harper, R. 62; 4 N. Hamp. R. 444; 4 Day's Cas. 51; 2 Cowen, R. 431, 433 n., 572; 7 Conn.

To Moslems I am an infidel.
