If your mother is Jewish, then by birth you are a Jew according to Torah law.

There is no such thing, according to Torah law, as being "half Jewish".

Either you are Jewish because your mother is, and her mother was, etc. -- or else you are not Jewish at all because your mother wasn't Jewish.

As for your religion, you will have to decide which your soul feels most at home with. Since you are a Jew by birth, I hope that it will be Judaism for you.

a non secular concern isn't a political concern. regrettably some human beings tend to ignore this. They was reported as the ethical majority, now they are the non secular precise. Examples of non secular subject concerns mixing with political subject concerns are: Prayer at school. Abortion Stem cellular study gay Marriage Gays greater often than no longer whilst you asked ought to a girl be a virgin on her wedding ceremony night? How did she lose her virginity in the 1st place? Why is the guy no longer stoned additionally? each and all of the above subject concerns do no longer belong in politics. picking your baby-kisser in reaction to the place s/he stands on those subject concerns, quite then what's nice for the country as an entire is the question. those few subject concerns are actually not the inspiration why you need to vote for one candidate over yet another. what's their stand on distant places coverage? what's their stand on States Rights? what's their stand on government length and spending? Tax breaks or Tax will improve? The economic device? that's what you have to be centred on. the different subject concerns are so you might come again to a style in your self.

All Jews would consider you to be Jewish- now, YOU may not consider yourself that, but because Jewishness is passed down from the mother, Jews everywhere will consider you to be Jewish. You can choose to deny that and be whatever you want, but we will still consider you a Jew!

If you believe Jesus Christ is the Messiah, than your a Christian. If you are waiting for the Messiah to come, you are Jewish.

Carlie, their choice of worship is theirs! As an older girl, you need to make this decision for yourself! Noone, but God can guide you to where you can most serve HIM!

Please pray and ask God to guide you as people will try to sway you but, God knows best and I would want HIS will for me, in my life...not others! In fact, my Dad was a minister/pastor of a church. As an adult, I studied other religions and visited. I am so happy I did as I found a church which was as though...I should have been there all along! I desire this for you too!

I hope you do not mind but, I would love to pray for you and God's direction, in your life! may God bless you on your spiritual journey!!

If you want to talk and discuss this, please e-mail me,
Gail

Culturally, you are considered Jewish. If it was reverse, you would not be Jewish. It's matrilinear in Judaism.

This is going to sound corny, but search your heart. Learn about both religions and see if either of them seem like they make sense to you. You might decide neither does, but find out as much as possible about both. I hope you find your answer.

YOU are who you are

your parents being a certain thing doesnt make you the same

YOU must work out your own salvation with fear and tremblin

and if you follow anything or anyone outside GOD
they are your master and your subject to them
Anything you put yourself subject to is your god, whether
it be yourself or money or cars or etc etc...
ONLY you can decide who your will serve

I SAY FOLLOW JESUS CHRIST
HE IS GOD
AND HIS WORD IS TRUTH

" let every man be a liar , but every word of God be True "

Anything you want. As far as I remember child religion can not be determined by religion of his parents, date or place of birth.
