If you were getting married but had to change your religion would you?
=====================================================
1- Love, they say, is blind, but I think love is blind and blinding to everything except the wonders, real or imagined, of the beloved.
2- Where there is such love [infatuation?] nothing, religion included, can stop the union of the two whether or not solemnised through marriage.
3- In most such cases the couple have to suffer opposition and even shunning by family members.
4- In Israel such opposition is carried to a new level. The have a dedicated group which strongly disapproves of changing over for marriage and do whatever they can to stop such unions. For them every Jew who stops being a Jew is a betrayer of their fathers who left their lands in Europe and elsewhere and came to Palestine in large numbers to set up a state for Jews.
