? by RockNRollMassacre

would i have to get circumcised?

are you even allowed to become an adherent to Judaism if you're not Jewish?

i considered it once, but i grew out of it.

I didn't leave a hat in your car last night

She already noticed

by my inability to conceal my awful hair this morning.

I mean "I'll check tonight"

without the question mark.

What does the second question even mean?

You just broke my head.

he's using 'Jewish' there

in place of 'Semite' I think.

guntrip | 4 Jul '08, 13:30 | Send note | Report this | Reply

that's what I thought you meant

but it seemed like such a daft question I thought there must be a facet to it that I wasn't quite grasping. No offence.

...

The whole point of converting is that you're not Jewish beforehand. Racially or otherwise.

Bear in mind, if we're going to go down the road of what constitutes ethnic Judaism, it might get ugly.

I'd suggest just cutting to the song.

Agreed

but only if the song is "Hava Nagila".

:S

FGC sounds like the worst thing ever. in the museum of religious life and art in glasgow, there's a photgraph of a girl being circumcised and it's awful. it's really common as well.

Did you watch that programme on Jews last night?

I watched it too and now I want to convert to Judaism.

also

would I still get to have a Bar Mitzvah, despite being too old for it?

RockNRollMassacre | 4 Jul '08, 13:31 | Send note | Report this | Reply

you would

but it would just be a rabbi noogying you for three and a half hours.

No

But you'd have to become a stand up comedian

Are you funny enough to be a Jew?

dove_from_above | 4 Jul '08, 13:33 | Send note | Report this | Reply

being a Jew is intrisically funny

with their comedy noses and strange eating habits, lolzo!

do you think they give you a jewish nose

when you convert

dukebox | 4 Jul '08, 13:46 | Send note | Report this | Reply

converting to Judaism, if thats what you really want
