There is a lie spreading throughout the Internet that not all Jews are real Jews. They insist that real Jews trace their ancestry back to Abraham. NO, not at all. What most people dont know is that ANYONE can become a Jew simply by going through the round of conversion. Rabbis discourage people from converting to Judaism because of the problems they may have with their families and with other people who simply hate us because they dont understand who we are or what we do. They claim that because the Khazar Empire converted to Judaism, that they are not as much Jews as anyone else. THAT IS AS BIG A LIE AS CAN BE. Anyone who goes through the conversion rites, including going through the mikvah (what Xians call baptism) and men are either circumcised or have their male part have blood drawn, comes out as a 100% honest to God Jew! The Jewish people have always had people joining themselves to them. The INSTANT they do become Jewish, there is no distinction between them and any other Jew who has ever walked the face of the earth. A former Gentile friend of mine had a large number of friends and then told them that he had converted to Judaism. He hadnt really, but was just thinking about converting. He lost over 90% of his friends because now he was a god-dammed dirty Jew. He wound up converting because he sure wasnt about to hang out with those folks anymore. Once a Jew becomes a Jew he or she is totally accepted and is just as liable to be treated with the same disrespect or danger to their lives as any other Jew. That DEMANDS THAT WE HAVE A PLACE OF RELATIVE SAFETY TO WHICH WE CAN GO OR RETURN. Me? My family comes from Abraham, Issac, and Jacob, then Israel. It is something that unlike Christianity or Islam one can be born into. But being born into it does not preclude our welcoming non-Jewish people to become allied with us. SO, to say that those of us who are not directly descended from Abraham does NOT mean that we are not true Jews.
