More on the :) Trend :) for Jewish Conversion

by Philip Weiss on December 3, 2008 · 5 comments

A guy named Michal Bas Avraham emailed me who's completing his conversion process to Judaism. I've said here it's a trend. Well Michal started a Yahoo group a month ago, says he has 16 members. Urges anyone who's interested to check it out…

I would have become Jewish long ago, if they had let me join the conversion stream for becoming atheist Jewish punks and draft resisters.

Michael W, for whatever reason, the link ends up in Phil's spam filter. Search Yahoo Groups for: Jewish Conversion Orthodox. It comes up as number 8.

See if this works? ;)

How about a nice fast conversion to Islam for Phil Weiss and his buddy Lowenstein

Campbell Brown, Madonna, some guy named Paul and a few slow social climbers is a trend? I guess Phil has spotted a trend of sorts, but it's a small trend. Islam is grwoing exponentially faster than Judaism, as is Christianity in many parts of the world. I'd even bet that Wicca and Shintoism are trending higher than Judaism.
