I would like to Know something if yu were a Catholic and became a Messianic Jew what was your conversion? If your a Catholic and became a member of the Reform Judiasm what does that mean?

Okay might sound simple but I don't have a problem with people embracing there Jewish roots of the Christian faith and out of repect for your spouse embrace the culture of being Jewish, however I don't think it can get much worse in GOD's eyes if you give up the Risen Messiah as your personal saviour by rejecting GOD's son..IMO if you know Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit and decide there is a better way to GOD you need to spend hours away from people and listen to GOD's voice so he will lead you back on the road to salvation...

I seriously thought about converting to Judaism as a teenager, before dispensing with religion all together. I refused to follow what I saw as the authoritarian nature of Christianity, assuming one should follow a single spiritual leader, nor would I bend in my belief that Jesus was a man like any other, and there was nothing "divine" about him.

It means nothing. "Reform" (or as many of us say "Deformed") Jews are not real Jews at all. They are "JINOs"...their true religion is Socialism, their dogma is Secular Humanism.

Imagine an man owns a store. He treats his clients well but he tolerates no nonsense from them. No returns from other stores, no returns without a receipt, bathrooms are for customers only. The man gets an idea, I'll open a new store, the new store will have much of the same inventory as my other store but the atmosphere is somewhat more relaxed.
The old man starts passing the word around the community, I have a son, he will be opening a store, treat him well for he is my son, he represents me and I speak through him. Finally, the new store opens.
The new store has, as promised, much of the same inventory. Has many of the same policies, except the son explains why the policies are what they are. He feeds people who come into the store. He tells stories to the people who come into the store. There is a catch, however, the son begins to tell the customers his father has only opened the store for a short time. He will be calling me back to the main office in the old store.
And this, this one last important point, the only way to get to the old store you loved so much, is to hold this coupon and show it at the door. It will show that you have come back to the old store through me and the new store. You can copy that coupon and give it to everyone you know. Matter of fact, it's you're responsiblity to share that coupon with everyone. Now that you know about the store and the new way, you most certainly wouldn't hide it, you would spread the word around.
At last the day came for the son to go back to the home office. Many of the other citizens were glad to see him go, he had shaken their world with his concepts of merchandising. The local Chamber of Commerce was unwilling and hesitant to make a decision, actually closing that day claiming they had to wash the floors and windows.
The Chamber of Commerce had one last idea, there was a store that took advantage of it's customers, sold them bad merchandise and foul meats. The head of the Chamber of Commerce went to the front steps of their office and placed the Evil Store on one side and The Good Son on the other and the crowd was asked which store should be saved. Because they didn't understand the marketing techniques of the old man's son's store they spited themselves and left the bad store open to take advantage of the citizens.
The good son's store was closed, yet he said, "I will be back in three days to prove my store is true and good to all people.". He was led away while his store was looted down to the fixtures and people laughed and at crackers and jam.
Many of his customers and his 12 salesclerks and 1 lady who hung around and made chit-chat with everybody in the store was walking around depressed. They didn't know what to do. The store was their livelihood.
3 days later the most remarkable event occured! People were awoken by bright lights, balloons, popcorn machines and raffles for door prizes.
The son was right, he came back 3 days later as he had promised. He said he could only stay for 40 days to help the store get back up and contact it's vendors. He also had to train the 12 guys and the 1 woman to manage the store and prepare for franchises.
