No joke, I have thought about converting.
I've not thought of converting, but personally I do feel a bit cheated because
the conservative Christian environment I was raised in didn't spend as much time
talking about Jewish culture and thought.
(LIke most of conservative Christians in the past generation or so, my group did have
positive regard for Israel and the Jewish community...with the usual and
understandable disdain for some liberal nutburgers who JUST HAPPENED to be Jewish.)
While I do religionally "root for the home team", I sure don't want the USA and other
countries to go down the path places like Canada are going...just recently their
Muslim population surpassed their Jewish population.
Jewish influences like Mel Brooks, Jackie Mason and brain-trusts like Dennis
Prager and Michael Medved...I'm all for that.
Folks wanting to nudge us slowly and inexorably to replacing English/American
common law with Shari'a Law...
NO FREAKIN' WAY, MAN!

(yeesh, I know I am treading here but..)
I just think there is something to the OT. I believe in the OT stories. I believe in the God of Abraham
I just struggle with Jesus...Can't get beyond that hurdle.
