Default Should I convert to Judaism for my boyfriend?

A slow but interesting week for the mailbag. I received a single e-mail from Allison in New York. "Help," she wrote. "My boyfriend wants me to convert to Judaism. He says that his parents will disown him if he marries outside the faith. He says that it’s merely a formality. I don’t know what to think. I was raised to be Catholic. I’m not really practicing and I don’t believe in Jesus as the Son of God but I need some advice. What would you do?"

Great article. Making a decision like this is NEVER a easy one, but having known a lot of families where one member has converted to a different religion for the other, it can work , but must be discussed openly and honestly.
