[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, you can covert to Judaism. Jews don't look for converts, but if someone comes with a honest interest in the religion, there is a conversion process. The Torah (Old Testament) accounts for conversion and requires converts to be treated as well as, if not better than, those who are born Jewish. [/quote] [b]Though there are some Orthodox Jews who don't recognize you as being Jewish unless you are Jewish on your maternal side.[/b] They also don't recognize converts to "reformed" Judaism. It can be a problem if you want to get married in Israel and are coming from the U.S. There are extreme beliefs for every religion. http://www.nytimes.com/2008/03/02/magazine/02jewishness-t.html?pagewanted=all[/quote] Orthodox Jews recognize people as Jewish if their mother is Jewish OR if they have an orthodox conversion - sometime also if they have a conservative conversion, but it depends on the rabbi and circumstances.
