SinEmpire,
I think it's less important today for Jewish people to maintain their heritage. For the past two thousand years, Jewish people all the world over were bound by common traditions . Without these traditions, I doubt that the idea of "Jewishness" would have survived the diaspora. Since the creation of Israel however, the concept of "Jewish-ness" can exists without this strong cohesion . It exists in a place once again.
