[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had lots of Jewish friends growing up (I'm not Jewish) and was never invited to a single Bar/Bat Mitzvah. Sounds like a modern day gift grab to me.[/quote] I'm almost 40, Jewish and went to dozens (literally) of them. There were always some non-Jewish people there. At mine, it was a "small" one with only about 70 people, and I can recall having three Israeli friends and one non-Jewish friend attend. Among adults, I think there were two couples who weren't Jewish. My brother's was a big affair with about 200 people, and he probably had about 30-35 people there who weren't Jewish. It's not a gift grab. It's a ceremony that's a HUGE deal within the religion. [/quote]
