[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I still don't understand why these hypothetical Jews who have converted to Catholicism but still want to go to shul all the time... want to go to shul all the time. (I think in reality, they don't exist, so trying to figure out what their motivation is sort of pointless.) [b]No one thinks the idea of Jews converting to Catholicism is weird or is uncomfortable with the idea. They are still ethnically Jewish, and now they're also Catholic.[/b] What I think a lot of us are having a hard time wrapping our heads around is why people have gone through the process of converting to Catholicism and embraced a whole other religion would then also have any need to continue to engage RELIGIOUSLY with Judaism. That part doesn't make any sense at all.[/quote] This is simply not true. Jewish culture strongly stigmatizes converts to Christianity and Judaism does not permit any kind of "also" where Christianity is concerned. If you have trouble understanding this, your points of reference are Christian, not Jewish.[/quote]
