Not all Jewish people are racist. There are some just like with any group of people; that is, blacks, whites, Asians, Hispanics, women, men, Christians, Muslims, but it is never the whole of the group and the racist should not be taken as the representative's.

∙ 10y agoJews are among the least homophobic religious groups in the world. All branches of Judaism except the Orthodox accept gay people and support same-sex marriage.
Even Orthodox Jews will tell you there are 613 commandments and no one follows them all. It's better to follow as many as you can.

∙ 13y agoYes and no (mostly yes). It depends on the type of Judaism:
Orthodox Judaism does not accept homosexuality, but many modern orthodox Jews believe there are more serious concerns, such as Jews not observing the Sabbath. A small group of Orthodox Jews completely accept homosexuality. See related links for a very interesting website on Orthodox acceptance of homosexuality according to halacha. Orthodox Jews who are anti-gay are in the MINORITY of the Jewish world.
Conservative Judaism accepts homosexuality and does not condemn anyone for being gay, however they do not yet recognize same-sex marriage. In order to do so, they must find a loophole in halacha (Jewish law). Conservative rabbis are permitted by the Conservative movement to perform commitment ceremonies IF the rabbi is willing to, but only if both parties are Jewish.
Reform Judaism accepts homosexuality and recognizes same-sex marriage. Gay people are treated as equals.
Reconstructionist Judaism accepts homosexuality and recognizes same-sex marriage. Gay people are treated as equals.
All branches of liberal and progressive Judaism accept homosexuality and recognizes same-sex marriage. Gay people are treated as equals.
