the various Hindu religions, or Shinto. Do you have the same issue? The largest Jewish population groups share considerable heritage.Islam generally is a universalizing religion, like Christianity. Both predominate in certain quarters but actively seek converts unlike ethnic religions. Judaism does not actively seek converts but it does accept them depending on the tradition. none of this is inconsistent with a Jewish ethnic identity parallel to but not synonymous with Jewish religion.
I don't have an issue with it but I don't want to generalise a type of person based on their religion. As you asked if someone is following Hinduism, I wouldn't immediately think of someone from the Indian subcontinent same as someone who is Muslim or Christian or Jewish.
I do recognise that some religions have more predominant ethnic followers and they are from specific regions of the world, but it's not always the case I don't think.
