I like how you assume they were married during WWII, among other things. Oh yeah, did i ever say she was in germany in the 30's? Nope, in switzerland. Judaism isn't a "closed club," did you try to convert yourself or something? You don't need to climb a mountain or fight dragons, it's not impossible like you say.
You say "sure" but hey, i don't care. It doesn't matter if you believe me or not, just correcting you. You could think she was a one-legged philipino whore for all i care, doesn't make the slightest difference to me.
A one legged phillipino whore converting would be more believable. I think either, a: shes a jewess and your family has tried to explain it away, or b: you're making more shit up like you're inclined to do.
How do I know the sky is fucking blue? Because I fucking learned it. How do you know things? I have researched it, have you? Let me break it down for you, Avi. Here is a jewish site that talks about converting...d
o you think you have to do all this if you walk into the Wilkesboro Baptist Church? No.

If, after the initial consideration, a person wishes to explore conversion more fully, the next step is to find a rabbi. This part of the process can be difficult for several reasons. Obviously, individual rabbis differ. Some devote more time than others to conversion candidates. Some adhere to an ancient tradition of turning away a candidate three times to test the candidate's sincerity. In general, though, rabbis are extremely dedicated people who are both intelligent and religiously sensitive. They are Judaism's gatekeepers. They decide who can enter into Judaism. Given their central importance to a potential convert, it makes sense to visit several rabbis and several synagogues to look for a compatible match.
If you are looking for a rabbi, check with friends and family for advice. Contact a local board of rabbis or other Jewish group, or check a local telephone directory. You can also contact the movements directly. See the section "Getting More Information About Conversion to Judaism."
A second problem is that rabbis belong to different groupings or movements. The four major movements are Conservative, Orthodox, Reconstruction
ist, and Reform Judaism. It is important for potential candidates to understand the differences among these movement and choose which movement is right for them.
When a person does see a rabbi, the rabbi can authoritativel
y answer questions about conversion. If the person has already decided to convert, the rabbi will probably ask a series of questions about that decision. Such questions might include some of these:
Why do you want to convert?
What is your religious background?
What do you know about Judaism?
Do you know the differences between Judaism and your birth religion?
Were you pressured to convert?
Are you willing to spend the necessary time studying to become Jewish?
Are you willing to raise any children you might have as Jewish?
Have you discussed this decision with your family?
Do you have any questions about Judaism or conversion?
Wow...My family was hard core pentecostal until I was 12 years old, I saw dozens of new people come into our church. I never remember anyone asking them these questions, just making them welcome and possibly baptising them.
3. LEARNING JUDAISM
A decision has been made to study Judaism, and a rabbi has agreed to oversee that studying. A person might not yet be fully sure that a conversion is right, but the initial steps of exploration will continue. Even those who don't ultimately convert generally find that studying Judaism is both interesting and helpful in their making a final decision about conversion.
Converts study Judaism in a variety of ways. Some work directly with a rabbi, meeting regularly and fulfilling specific study assignments. Others attend formal Introduction to Judaism or conversion classes, often with their Jewish romantic partner. A typical course of study will include basic Jewish beliefs and religious practices, such as prayer services, the history of the Jewish people, the Jewish home, the Jewish holidays and life cycle, the Holocaust, and Israel, as well as other topics. The study of Hebrew is also included.
The period of study varies greatly. In general, the range is from six months to a year, although there are variations. Many Gentiles preparing to marry someone Jewish go through this process early so as to get married in a Jewish ceremony. A marriage between someone born Jewish and someone who becomes Jewish is a Jewish marriage, not an intermarriage. If this is a crucial issue, plan to begin study well before a wedding.
Usually during this study period, a rabbi will ask that the person begin practicing Judaism according to the understanding of the movement. This can be a worthwhile time to explore Judaism. For example, even if a person does not ultimately plan to keep kosher (observe Jewish ritual rules about food), it is valuable to explore the rules for keeping kosher during this period of study.
So there is a great deal of study involved. For a jew by blood this isn't a problem, as they have been brought up in this enviroment, and also set aside time to study for the bat/bar mitzvah. What do you have to study to become a xtian?
4. THE RELIGIOUS COURT
The Religious Court, or Bet Din, most often consists of three people, at least one of whom must be a rabbi. Often it consists of three rabbis. The Bet Din officially oversees the formal conversion. Individual rabbis will provide guidance about how the Bet Din works. Because it takes place after learning, one part of the appearance will be to determine the Jewish knowledge of the conversion candidate. There might, for example be a question about the meaning of the Jewish Sabbath or about the Jewish belief in one God. These questions are not meant to trap candidates. Obviously, candidates are nervous during such questioning, but in almost all cases the questions are simply meant to assess the sincerity of the candidate and to make sure the conversion was entered into freely. Often an oath of allegiance to the Jewish people is made
Ahh, the religious court. In other words, you have to be judged worthy by jews to be let into the tribe. It doesn't happen very often, and most conversions are by people who marry a jew. Which xtian court judges your worth again?
5. CIRCUMCISION
The specific requirements for conversion and their order need to be discussed with a rabbi. One requirement for males who wish to be converted by an Orthodox or Conservative rabbi is circumcision, or brit milah. If a circumcision has already been performed, the Orthodox and Conservative movements require that a drop of blood be drawn as a symbolic circumcision. This ceremony is called Hatafat Dam Brit. The Reform and Reconstruction
ist movements generally do not require a circumcision as part of the conversion process.
Ah yes, don't forget to chop part of your dick off in a blood offering to your desert god.
7. THE OFFERING
In ancient times, conversion candidates brought sacrifices or offerings to the Temple in Jerusalem. After the Temple was destroyed, this ceremony disappeared. Jewish law therefore does not require such an offering. However, some rabbis, especially among the Orthodox, mention it as an opportunity to engage in an act of donating money to the poor or another act of charity to make a symbolic offering. This step can voluntarily be added to the conversion process.
Ahh, now we're getting to the gist of it. The 'offering,' to G_d of course. Of course, you can make a 'symbolic offering,' but then what will the religous court think?
I never said converting was impossible, just very costly, time consuming, and difficult. And its that way by design, because jews have no desire to extend the brotherhood to include the goyem(cattle).
Remember when you used to do nothing but kiss my ass while I ignored you?
