[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you are completely missing the point. Catholics raising their kids catholic cannot really be compared to Judaism.
In [b] some sects of [/b]Judaism you cannot be jewish if you are not born jewish from a jewish mother. Gentile women marrying jews have a very hard time being accepted, some are not even accepted if they convert, and conversion to Judaism is not a simple matter.
For some strange reason jewish women marrying outside the religion is more accepted, most likely because the kids are still born jewish.
I would not get involved in organizing blind dates to anyone. A single jewish woman would most likely be interested in a single jewish man, but unless you know her well, I would keep out[/quote]
Fixed that for you. Not all sects of Judaism believe this. Reform Jews, for example, believe that if either of your parents is Jewish, you're Jewish. http://www.reformjudaism.org/practice/ask-rabbi/i-have-jewish-mother-and-christian-father-what-am-i[/quote]
