Cool story, bro!

I hadn't heard about this until recently. No wonder Christie is getting the boot! What useless cabinet appointment will Kushner convince Trump to give Christie? Was thinking Transportation (for laughs) but maybe it will be something ev n lower in stature. |
His family also donated to NYU. Although sadly, this is common at elite schools, including privates in this area. Check out The Price of Admissions: How America's Ruling Class Buys Its Way into Elite Colleges, by Daniel Golden |
I'll bite. Certain orthodox women do, i'd say they're more commonly considered modern orthodox. Traditional orthodox women would cover their arms, etc. One thing I haven't thought to observe throughout this though is if there are images or video of Jared or Ivanka riding in a car, plane, etc. on a Saturday. If so, then they are most certainly not orthodox - modern or traditional. Orthodox Jews observe the sabbath. Not that any of this really matters anyway. |
If she converted to Judaism are their children considered Jewish ? |
Yeah, I have some personal experience with this. It depends. Assuming she was converted by an Orthodox rabbi before her children were born, then they would be considered Jewish in the eyes of all forms of Judaism - reform, conservative, orthodox, etc. I suppose that some extreme Lubavitchers (ultra-orthodox), etc. would disagree, but the standard really is an orthodox conversion. If she was converted by a reform or conservative rabbi, then the orthodox synagogue would not consider them to be jewish. I'm guessing she had an orthodox conversion. This was probably more info than you needed. |
Please Ivanka Trump is about a Jewish as the Pope. Orthodox Jew- that's even funnier. His father is a crook, got locked up under Christie. This spiteful son got Christie (who was just doing his job) booted from Trump's cabinet contenders. Ivanka is an idiot for marrying him. She needs to find Jesus. |
I think Tiffany is the fortunate one. The less contact for her, the better off she'll be. |
Manhattan "society" doesn't work. |
Yes, very helpful, as I always thought under orthodox that children of women that convert cannot be jewish... although not jewish this misunderstanding was always something that kind of bothered me a little (not that it should matter) - as it's not the kids fault. I appreciate the clarification. |
it's because of the ummm...how should we put this...'special' face. |
Both of you are being silly. I didn't attend either school, but I work in higher ed and can assure you that Penn is more selective than Georgetown. |
Oh, honey. We have to work on your standards. That man is not attractive, and he's certainly not more attractive than her. |

Again more info than you need, but... while Judaism is not an actively proselytizing religion, it is very welcoming to those who show interest in converting. The orthodox conversion process is very cumbersome and lengthy, but converts are very much welcomed. |
