Obviously this is a very personal issue. First, I think all the references to not "looking" jewish is just another way of saying something else......that all the different nationalities that are being represented are good to see. It is more than that, but I don't seem to have the words right now. Re: converting babies......For myself, it is important that a child be raised with a faith. Any change that same child would choose to bring about as an adult would then be his/her choice. But "belonging" is very important. I personally find much comfort in tradition...to a point. Anyways, our children will be who they will be. We simply guide them the best we can. And if religion is a part of that guidance, that is great. If it isn't, that is fine too. I just personally have always felt it was important to provide a good solid foundation for my kids to build on. I have always said that if they find another truth as adults, I will honor it. I may need to be reminded of that promise if and when it ever happens! LOL Love, Debi
