Could it have anything to do with:<br><br>* a convert is not allowed to serve as president of his or her synagogue in many communities?<br><br>* it is forbidden to marry a convert in certain communities?<br><br>* a convert can't be called up to the Torah in some communities?<br><br>* the fact that converts are the only class of Jews who can have their status revoked on the whim of a pervert or any nitwit who calls himself a rabbi?<br><br><i><b>As a new convert, you are fully part of the Jewish people, </b></i><br><br>I am sorry, but that is a lie. Speaking for myself as a "גר צדק" I no longer consider myself Jewish, though I am married with Jewish offspring. I believe my status is between a Goy and a Jew — I'm obligated in mitzvos but I am not entitled to the rights and privileges of a Jew; something on the order of an Eved Caanani.דניאלnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-1207565292932751772010-11-23T19:28:33.229-08:002010-11-23T19:28:33.229-08:00I'm surprised you didn't comment on #19. ...I'm surprised you didn't comment on #19.

Jewish people are different. Maybe not physically although the gemoro says their teeth are. They are 'rachmanim' kind, shameful, and do chesed. And I would add for women more than men. In eishes chayil, she is happy that her husband not herself sits at the head of the people. Reading some blogs one is resigned to the fact that their giyur proccess has not taught them that. Unless they are prepared to work on these traits Jewish men will not come running.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-43272285435088361492010-11-25T08:08:18.732-08:002010-11-25T08:08:18.732-08:00the Jewish people are shameful.yes they are which ...the Jewish people are shameful.<br><br>yes they are which is a violation of the Torah.<br><br>Btw, why dont u tell me where sexism is endorsed in the pentateuch, i havent run across it.Michaltastikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-60452155190557962602010-11-25T08:43:47.281-08:002010-11-25T08:43:47.281-08:00i quoted you eishes chayil maybe you think its onl...i quoted you eishes chayil maybe you think its only just a song sung on friday night but it happens to be in the tnach in mishlei. Sexism is embodied in the bible being the only reason for womans creation. Because the man cant be without her. No other reason is given. Unlike animals where both sexes were created together, women came as an afterthought. Shameful perhaps is the wrong word and you understood it out of context. 'bayshonim' is the hebrew word. It means not being brash.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5012577834296987267.post-87586210101844543642010-11-25T13:07:08.710-08:002010-11-25T13:07:08.710-08:00most jews are brash.most jews are brash.Michaltastikhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06358698308334285154noreply@blogger.com
