Well, I don't know where else I would go to get a working definition of a term outside of a book that defines terms, such as a dictionary.
Anywho, you said "since I used to live around a lot of Jamaicans and like Chicken patties w/ Coco bread and occasionally listen to reggae then I'm West Indian by culture right?" and I will clarify your statement by adding that culture is not a noun used to define people, but, the way of life of a people. Therefore, if you did live around a lot of Jamaicans and like Chicken patties w/ coco bread and occasionally listen to reggae music, and you assimilated other aspects of the Jamaican culture, then, by all means claim it if you wish. (I know many persons of all nationalities who do) We might just be flattered.
But, on a serious note, this discussion is going nowhere. I have given you the evidence to support my argument and we still disagree, so, let's not wear each other out.
