[quote=Anonymous]No, a person is not “Jewish” just because a maternal great-grandmother was Jewish, at least not in the eyes of most people who consider Judaism a religion, not an indelible magic stamp that persists for all time through the maternal bloodline. Yes, I know orthodox rabbis take this view. But... one of my great-grandmothers was Irish. The others were not. This does not make me “Irish,” and does not give me a deep mystical connection to Ireland, it just makes me someone who is about 1/8 Irish in terms of genealogical ancestry. It does not somehow drown out the other seven non-Irish contributors to my genetics. Being Jewish is a choice he can make. Or not. The fact that a bunch of orthodox rabbis might want him to convert versus say he does not need to convert should not be what defines his choices.[/quote]
