Title: Can a non-Jew call themselves a Kahanist?
Post by: UncleBourbon on May 31, 2020, 04:19:22 PM

Been meaning to ask this. If not what would you call a gentile who agrees with Kahanism?

Of course!  Kahanism is guided and based exclusively on the Torah and its oral traditions.  Jews and righteous gentiles have important roles in God's grand design!

I always felt for someone to truly be a kahanist Jew, he had to religious and keep Shabbat and make aliyah to Israel (if he’s allowed to). Otherwise one can admire and agree with rabbi kahane but not necessarily be a kahanist

So where does gentile supporter of kahane fit in? He or she, too, is an admirer of rabbi kahane.

I think a true kahanist would have to be a religious Jew or religious convert who has made aliya or making every effort possible to do it (like Chaim)

Yes of course. We wouldn't be here otherwise.

Yes. For someone to be a Kahanist Jew they have to be a Jew. For someone to be a Kahanist they agree with the ideology. Rav Kahane made speeches at Noachide centers, so he actively supported his non-Jewish followers.
