There's a great Documentary made many years ago...a man returns to his home in poland years and years after WWII....Brasnk,I
think was the name of the town...Polish farmers were handing over jews, so that later on they could infact, steal their land...jewish graveyards were looted, and head stones were used to pave sidewalks for the christian
churches nearby...this wasn't just happening in Bransk....it was happening ALL OVER POLAND...whatever, jews remained in poland after this??? sounds fictional to me,
that a small group of people/jews...just happen to realize that they are jewish...
like the neo nazi guy who turned jewish??
sounds fishy and unlikely.

Nazis and orthodox jews surprisingly have a lot in common... they judge people by their bloodline. And both think and study the whole day about who is a jew and what is a jew and what we can do about it. Funny isn't it ?
This only shows that there are enough people out there who believe more in blood and race than in work, peace and creativity.
The way of thinking of an orthodox jew is probably quite the same as the one of a nazi .
On the other hand this only shows that there are some nazis out there who would like to live their lifes as jews. But only because of all the conspiracy theories they believe in - actually a lot of jews also believe in these conspiracy theories.

yap , I'm that friend who invite his wife to shul , the story is real:)

i smiled when the translater answering a query said, when he spoke of his brothers - that they had not changed... that they live
' normal lives'.
i beg to differ, first i am Noahide. The Jewish Nations live the life which is Normal, the way Hashem wanted humankind to live.
The rest of us, we are living abnormal lives.

I know a guy like that..he's brave for telling his story,and I hope more men realize the error of their ways.
and simply change...for good.
for Hashem...for his family and the jewish
community and for himself.
I don't admire him...but I am thankful that he
changed his ways...see the power of G-d???
can we all see this?? it was Hashem that
changed his heart...we can ALL admire that.
Shalom,great post.

I greatly admired this story. It shows that we all have the potential to chase away the dense of darkness that has descended upon the world. This man's transformation happened because of submissive nature of his who greatly desired to be in Shul and daven with the community.
Those who listen to the story of this man will understand that hatred is dangerous and that it gnaws away the gems of life in a person as an entity and society at large. Hate is the downfall of mankind. However, those who know better must teach and plant the seed of human dignity in the hearts of their children right from birth so that they become part of Tikkun Olam. Thank you for your story.

The example you gave, of your mother teaching your wife "to unlearn hatred" and her, in turn ...your wife teaching you is the very example of how our individual interactions are interwoven and manufacture a beautiful tapestry thatis the fabric of our society.
I have shared this link, with everyone who is dear to me, Jewish and Non Jew, Yasher Koach and Kol Ha Kavod, to you, your wife and family

Thank, so much for the courage in sharing a truly awesome life transforming experience, the challenges, place where you came from, where you are now serve as an inspiration, to all of us "getting there".
As a almost "covert" with a Jewish Ancestry, I, so identified with the challenges you faced, community and family dynamics etc... your account was given in such a warm, human, honest expression and is very engaging.
I also fully "get" the reference to yourliving a Jewish Life as related to a daily Kadish for your ancestors and the awakening of your families souls in your own oberservance..... my own link is so real its almost tangible and especially profound during Yizkor.
I really enjoyed, that regardless of language and cultural barriers, we all want the same things,connectivity to our children, grandchildren and yes we share the challenges to refer the Mother in law humour.
The example you gaveof your mother teaching your wife "to unlearn hatred" and her, in turn ...
