What would you do if you found out you weren't really Jewish? I without a shadow of a doubt am Jewish and there is no way that I will ever have this conundrum, but it is always a fun what if????
I think that the bigger issue is what religion would you choose if not Judaism? I can't imagine practising any religion other than Judaism, especially since I think that all other religions are bogus. I suppose if I wasn't Jewish I would be no religion.
I guess the hardest part of choosing Judaism is knowing about the holocaust and how so many people still hate Jews. Would I choose Judaism knowing this?
If I was married I would definitely choose to be Jewish if I found out that I really wasn't Jewish. If I was adopted by a Jewish family I would want to be Jewish even if I hadn't been born Jewish.
It is odd to think about because my whole life has been a Jewish life and to find out your whole life is not really what you thought it was could be such a shock to the system. I think that if I found out I really was not Jewish I would try to experience life without Judaism for a little bit before deciding what I would really want to choose. Maybe that sounds strange because I am Jewish and as a Jew I do not want to be anything else but a religious Jew.

I'd go to MacDonalds and then I'd go to the amusement park on Saturday and then I'd watch a movie opening on Friday night and then I'd say "hi" to the cute...
ReplyDeleteI would either choose to convert to Judaism, or else go as an atheist and live life to its fullest.
