I mean, what are you planing for your kids to be like? half and half?!

Either "free choice," or "none" so far as I'm concerned. 3nodding

My parents raised me to choose on my own, and I hope to extend the same courtesy to my children.

That's nice of you, I think. sweatdrop

My kids are going to be Jewish unless they absolutely abhor it, no matter what my husband is. And they will certainly be Jewish until they can properly weigh in the pros and cons. I hope to raise them in way that will make them want to be Jewish, though, so we don't have to battle at all. I want them to grow up with a very rich Jewish background, but I don't want to smother them with it, y'know?

Isn't this an oxymoron?

I can just imagine some church-goer saying "my kids'll be Christian until they can properly weight the pros and cons," is all.

Well, when they're young and don't know any better, I don't want them going around saying, "I dunno what religion I am, my mommy says whatever." I want them to be Jewish until wanting otherwise. sweatdrop

just one question.... isnt it hard to date someone that is not like you in his religion? I mean, what are you planing for your kids to be like? half and half?!


*shrug* It's never really been a concern for me. His religious beliefs have no impact on mine. As far as kids go, if I have any (which is a gigantic "if"), they'll be raised Jewish but given the option to look into/practice whatever they want.

One senario: "Wow you are Jewish that's so great, I love Jews. Later he slips in, "Jews killed Jesus!" or "There's a Jewish girl in passion of the christ, she reminds me of you, she is so beautiful AND you know, she supports Jesus". eek Way to score! xp

I suppose dating outside the Jewish circle is alright, but I'd rather not anymore, especially if I want to end up with someone Jewish (particularly after those experiences). whee


How rude. I hope you gave him a telling-to.


Kinda-sorta gave him a telling to. Along the lines of; I'm not interested in the movie, please don't persuade me to watch it. Can't really remember what I said about the "Jews killed Jesus" one sweatdrop .

Jewish dating here would be hard seeing as there are about 4 jewish boys living in the state(around the same age as me). 3nodding But I would prefer to date jewish boys.

oh em jyu
I find it a lot easier to date Jewish boys, because then you don't get the dirty looks from the uncles and aunts when they find out you've been dating a goy for nine months. Plus, if he's Jewish, there's a better chance of my parents already knowing him and when my parents do find out I have a boyfriend, they react better if it's someone they know and see at temple.

I've got no funny stories, but it is kind of funny how my dad finally admitted one of the big reasons he forced me to go to a Jewish school was so I'd meet a nice Jewish boy and have many Jewish babies. xd


lol ::rolls on floor laughing:: that is funny, but same thing with me... only my fathers family forced my parents to send me to a cathlic school when i was little... they wanted me to be a nun though. -.- right right and to think i'm going to be jewish soon... ::leans back in chair very proud of my self::

right now i have a boyfriend no religon for him, but he learned that shalom ment peace. -.- so he is flicking people off and saying shalom at the same time, he finds it funny but i just get mad at him. ^.^ he's finally stopped doing it. which i'm happy for ^.^.

You dating a nice Jewish boy? xD; Nah, no pressure.

I've had many bad experiences with overly neurotic Jewish boys, so this one is definitely not Jewish. Probably won't be involved with a Jewish guy ever again heart

Man, no kidding. I've dated one Jewish girl, and after the neurosis I like to call "the effects of her and her family's pressure" took their toll, I decided to never date within Jewish circles ever again. sweatdrop

Some may have had better experiences, or different preferences, though.

Stories, be they funny or lesson-learning?

uh...ya know its agianszt thte torah to marry a non-jew

Besides the occasional theological difference of opinion its not that much different than dating another Jew, I would assume.

I would like my future children to be raised Jewish, but that's still up in the air. It's possible they will be introduced to both religions at an early age and given the choice of what they want to be when they're old enough.

Alina Sedai: What about Ruth? She wasn't considered a Jew until after her husband died, wasn't she?
