I like both Judaism and Buddhism, there are major overlaps and powerful connecting points. The Dharma is powerful.

Can a non jew convert to Judaism??

[@myJLI]

Yes!

[@conservative2140]

Judaism is the only way!

[@c.m.b.7567]

just so you know judaism is a closed practice for jews. you dont just go spreading that "judaism is the only way"... we arent seeking out people to convert unless they want to.
