I was trying to edit a comment under “orthodox convert fights for recognition”. I said results instead of result. So I clicked “edit”, changed it and saved it. It said the comment had been edited, but the comment looked exactly the same as it was before. I tried it again, thinking I might have forgotten [...]

I agree, Jews need to unite and stop arguing so much with each other. I think we are all equal in the eyes of G-d and in front of the wall. Unfortunately, I think we are not all equal the eyes of the Israeli government. While I don’t like to see people upset, I do [...]

Avi, I realized I a made a grammatical error and tried to use the edit button. It says things are edited, but the previous wording doesn’t change.
Thanks,

Our Rabbi mentioned to us a guy that converted and is now a Rabbi in Israel, his given name was Wolfgang something. His father and grandfather were both German Nazis. I guess some people can change, we can only hope it is truly sincere and not out of guilt. I do know what it is [...]

Avshalom, that sounds pretty intense. My sponsoring Rabbi told me to summarize my journey in an essay-like format to prepare myself. I am unsure I could explain biblical passages like a sage, but I have taken Torah class all year. I do feel strongly about my reasons why though and have discussed them extensively with [...]

I agree with your last paragraph. I discussed the conversion issue and Israel with my Rabbi. I am doing a Reform conversion and it will include a mikvah and one of our teachers is an Orthodox rabbi. For all practical purposes, I plan to lead my life here, so I am going with this being [...]

<p>Maybe it would be possible to expand upon Debbie's idea of a Jewish Activities Board, I could definitely bring in some East Coast stuff as I have ties in both Delaware and Philadelphia.</p>

<p>I agree with Lindsay and Debbie, we shouldn't have to display our last names to the general public, sadly there is just too much craziness out there.</p>
<p>I realize we are in a testing phase, but somehow I feel like the conversion forum's purpose is a little lost right now. It isn't exactly a welcoming situation [...] -
Kathy S started the forum topic I am so excited in the group Conversion:
I met with my Rabbi tonight and we started talking about where I am going with my Jewish education. Our Intro to Judaism classes end April 15. We had a conversation about readiness and he said he would be setting up a Beit Din in April or May for me and I could [...]

Kathy Helg posted on the forum topic "Avatar", the movie as a conversion story in the group Conversion:
I think you brought up some good points. I think I am too immersed in studying my Jewish History as when they started going into destroy their "tree of life" if you will, I said to my friend, wow, that is like the 9th of Av for those people.
For me the biggest parallel is [...] -
