[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don’t Jewish people want converts?

My daughter converted when she married a Jewish man and everything seems fine? Am I missing something?[/quote]

Have you ever heard of a Jewish missionary? Did Judaism spread throughout the world to convert people the way Islam did? They obviously don't want converts. They accepted your daughter's conversion because they want the kids to be raised Jewish and don't want to lose them. There's a lot of intermarriage and mainstream Jews accept that it's better to convert a spouse if it means retaining the kids. But they would prefer Jews marry other Jews and the state of Israel doesn't even recognize your daughter or her kids as Jewish. Believe me, your daughter won't ever be fully accepted as Jewish my many Jews.[/quote]

The state of Israel barely recognizes most American Jews who were born to generations of Jews as Jewish these days, but that's more a comment on the Israeli Orthodox movement than it is on Jews in general.[/quote]

What is “barely recognize” means?
They do or they don’t, if you want to immigrate to Israel ?
Which is it?[/quote]
