Jews are a culture derived from an ancient religion. Many Jews aren't religious but are still part of a culture that identifies themselves as Jews.
It's the smart thing to do, since the intermarriage rate is 50% and many Jews are afraid of their heritage "disintegrating".
yes there is it is a very strict country but you can marry in the U.S and many other places
As with many Christians and Jews, many Muslims see their religion as an integral, and primary, aspect of their lives.
If you are referring to religions that others attempted to force on the Jews, they were Christianity, Islam, and many pagan religions.
Jews and Christians
AnswersNo.Just as many non-Jews adopt Judaism, many Jews have changed religion, and many will continue to do so. Once a Jewish person has left Judaism, he or she is no longer bound by the rules of Judaism.Judaism is more than a religion. It is a culture, a civilization, and somewhat a group sharing a common ancestry/history (ignoring converts who are not really Jews). Many Jews believe that even if a Jew leaves Judaism, he/she is still an ethnic Jew.
"No. Even though many Jews look like lookalikes, Judaism is a religion." That is wrong. Jews are a nation and have been before Moses brought them the Jewish religion. Furthermore, Jews who become atheists or followers of another religion remain Jews. A common religion is a typical feature of a nation and historically many (or most) nations had their own religions, including the Greeks and the Persians (Zoroastrianism). The correct answer is that "Jewish" is a nationality and that Jews, as a nation, are typically followers of their own aboriginal religion, although some have converted to Christianity or other religions. P.S.: Technically the name of the nation is "Israel" and the state of Israel is named after the nation. The nation of Israel consists of twelve tribes, three of whom are the "Judaeans" (Jews) and make up 95% of "Jews" world-wide.
Once inside the ghetto, Jews were trapped.
Traditional Jews follow a custom of never entering a house of worship for another religion. Reform and Liberal Jews use their own discretion. Many Jews are uncomfortable in the presense of open coffins.
No. There are far many more Protestants, Catholics, Orthodox Christians, and Sunni Muslims each in Europe than Jews; there are around 2 million Jews in Europe today.
That depends on the countries and on whether the Jews were orthodox or Reform. In Germany, for example, the majority of Jews were NOT orthodox and dressed very inconspicuously - as in many other countries.
