--- Quote from: Cohen on January 19, 2008, 08:22:49 PM ---I don't support intermarriage, I myself won't intermarry but that is a individuals decision so I voted no.
EDIT: I thought this was about interracial marriage, change my vote to yes.

But your not Jewish, if I remember correctly, unless im mistaking you with someone else.

My mothers Jewish (German Catholic originally, converted Orthodox), and my father was Jewish (hence my last name). I don't know why people keep asking this, I guess i'll have to scan my circumcision certificate.
--- End quote ---
Because I belive that you posted some time ago that your mothers not Jewish, I dont know. Does your mother keep all the Mitzvot applicable for a Jewish women? and are you religious?
--- End quote ---
I'm not religious (as in attend synagogue since there isn't one here), I don't know what my mother practices now, but some of the members may have gotten the wrong impression because I had mentioned my mother was of German background so they may have assumed that meant she wasn't Jewish? I don't think she currently considers herself Jewish but at the time of her conversion before she had kids, that would have made me Jewish.

Shul is one thing, but not to offend you, you have to check very well with a Kosher Orthodox court, to determine your status of being Jewish or not. This is very important expecially when it will come to marriage, etc.

Well, if you didn't want anyone to vote "no", then why did you list it as one of the possible choices?
Why didn't you ban voting 'no'?

I didn't make the poll, Yakov put it on.

Why would my Jewishness be in question if my mother converted Orthodox?

Because someone who converted Beemet (in Truth) wouldn't then not keep the laws. This might retroactivly invalidate the conversion, but im not a Rav, so I wont pass the judgement, but you should definitly go to a Jewish court/ or valid Rav, and tell the whole story from A to Z, asap.
