    Have to wonder why this happens so much, that atheists marry jews and cave to their pressure or requests to raise the kids in the jewish faith

      Probably a combination of “it’s really important to this person” and “love”. Switching to what your loved one supports happens with all faiths, and occasionally, even football teams.

      I have no problem with that.

      I do, however, have a problem with that actually meaning “they have to support Israel’s genocide” or “they have to arrest anyone who says mean things about Israel”.

      I suspect you could burn a Union Jack in the middle of your City Centre and there’d be no legal response to it (assuming you had an adequate fire risk assessment).

      I also suspect if you burnt an Israeli flag in the middle of your City Centre that you’d be quickly arrested for “terrorism”.

      Sex and procreation, the main drivers of human behaviour along with food and survival. It’s nothing specific to Judaism, it’s the same for every religion.
