A member of the widely dispersed people descended from the ancient Hebrews and sharing an ethnic heritage based on Judaism.
People who practice Judaism should be called Judaists(after all that was the original term for someone who practiced Judaism), not Jews because almost half of Israel's Jewish population is secular(non-religous). But they still consider themselves Jewish because Jews are an ethnic group, not a RELIGIOUS GROUP.

A person of Jewish faith or of Jewish race. Most Jews are in fact not religious but are Jews by blood. Most actors and filmmakers in the US are of Jewish decent. Common Jewish names include Cohen, Levi/Levine, Isaac and anything which contains 'Gold', 'Ruben', 'Silver', 'Stein' or 'Berg'. Famous Jews change their names to be more accepted.
Just a handful of examples: Steven Spielberg, Oliver Stone, Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Bob Dillon, Woody Allen, Ben Stiller, Billy Crystal, Daniel Day Lewis, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Sarah Jessica Parker...
