What I don't quite understand is, if your religion is so important to you, how could you come to marry someone who was not a believer?

Isn't the real issue that the sons and daughters of the current generation of Jews, are not being raised as believing Jews?

Because you fall in love.

It would've been that way for me, except she had been thinking about converting, even before we met.
