ANYONE can convert to Judaism.

But we take the whole thing very seriously. It's about learning and education and all. YOU must be serious.

Blood has NOTHING to do with it.

It is NOT a closed club.

It is NOT like a Sorority or Fraternity, where someone else decides if you are good enough to join or anything, but you DO have to take the learning seriously. That's all.

Didn't you watch "Sex in the City?" Watch the eps where Kristin decides to convert, and then goes through the process...it's quite well done, right down to the attitude of the guy and her attitude. Very typical.
 
Yes, you can convert, but first you must learn about Judaism. It is nothing at all like what you may have learned from Christians.

Visit local congregations, introduce yourself, and ask questions.

answer: absolutely. If you had no Jewish ancestors you could still convert (I am!).

Find a synagogue near you and talk with the rabbi if you feel called to Judaism.

I've loved the conversion process, gotta say.

Avoid "messianic synagogues" - those are churches and they aren't Jewish but Christians.
 
The Christian Faith has its roots in Judaism. You cana ctually be both- Paul was! But the rabbi might not see it like that! But the answer is yes you can convert.
