say i am catholic and my gf is jewish...and we wanted to get married; could we both get married in a synagogue even if i am catholic? or would i have to convert? if so, how long would it take/would it be a big hastle? Also, what if i never got my confirmation, is that a big deal? And if it is how could i get confirmed into the church pretty quickly? would i have to get a barmitzfa (srry bout spelling) and would it take long, would i have to learn how to read and all that, and would they have to circumsize me (if i already have been)?
Please answer all questions and sorry that my questions aren't organized very well, thanks in advance.

Unless religion is very important to both of you, save yourself the hassle and expense and get married by a justice of the peace.

I think you can only marry her is you are a jewish, circumcisation is just an extra thing but you have to be convert or she has to be a christian for you to get married.
It is a bit difficult for you to convert to judaism because they make it difficult (like there is a "test" that you need to go to the synagogue several times and they will always say: no, you can not be a jew, go away, are you sure? etc because it is a test. I think they will send you away three times or two? and when you return for the third time they will treat you seriously
Hey, why not convert to Islam and start a new life tabula rasa you know? :D

I don't know what all you would need to do, but the Bible says you need to be of like faith. See 2 cor 6:14.
