Your ethnic composition?

Ancestrally almost entirely Sylheti, but since I do not speak the language, ethnically Bengali.

I can't say I have any interest whasoever in genealogy, although that may have been different if there were any records kept. My parents have no birth certificates, and my dad changed his name simply by writing a new name on his high school exit exam.

50% German
25% Russian
25% Romanian

So did your ancestors convert? I don't mean to sound racist but being Jewish is an ethnic group. Yes there were gentiles who converted to Judaism and that is why there are Jews with blonde hair but being from Germany does not make one German. Not singling out Jews same goes with Turks and Africans who live there.

No it's not, it's a religion.  My ancestors were Jewish, I'm not.  Being Jewish makes one a Jew, not being born in non-existent Jew-land.

Not really. But Stark's point is definitely wrong.
