[quote=backintown]Whereas most religions actively seek to recruit people to share their beliefs and to belong in their communities, this one screens out and often forbids people from joining their faith on the sole basis of genetic ancestry and ethnic background. Who can get away with this kind of behavior these days? Isn’t this blatant racial discrimination? I wonder why/how this doesn’t even raise an eyebrow in our media.

What? That’s just dumb. Anyone can convert to Judaism, the religion. You can’t convert to being of “Jewish” ancestry/genetics, just like you can’t convert to being of any particular genetics.
I’m going to need you to knock off the Jew-bashing… I don’t want this kind of garbage on my site.
