[quote=Anonymous]Convert married to a Jewish man here. Judaism in the US is a totally different animal than the Israeli experience. I understand and even identify with a lot of what you've said, while echoing what others have said about the Reform movement (and even parts of the Conservative movement) being a lot more opening and welcoming of 'inter-faith' (maybe inter-cultural in your case?) families. So please, try to hold off on painting with such a broad brush before exploring the continuum of American Judaism. Re: circumcision People have a lot of strong feelings on the issue, and we're all biased. It's a tough choice and it's great you're being thoughtful about it. Fathers often have a lot more psychological stuff wrapped up in the decision, and you should hear that out - as well as acknowledge that it's a pretty big deal as a cultural rite of passage for even many nonreligious Jews. Good luck - I hope you can reach a decision together.[/quote]
