Marinated Onion Salad with Feta

2 to 3 sweet onions (like Vidalia or Texas No. 10), peeled and sliced paper thin
¼ pound feta cheese, crumbled
2 teaspoons dried or chopped fresh parsley
½ green or red bell pepper, seeded and diced
¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
