I’m Jewish, and I agree with everything you said. Good post, very accurate IMO.

I am certain that what I saw ( as a gentile) was merely the tip of the iceberg. I could not even possibly begin to know or understand the full measure of what it was like to be Jewish.
I dated a very kind Jewish man for about a year. One evening during the Christmas season we went out to dinner at a restaurant. We were given a seat next to a full white and gold Christmas tree. I could just tell from his look that it was just too much. He’d had enough of all the “Ho! Ho! Ho!”
He wanted to marry me very much, but I had been divorced and had a 5 year old son. Culturally, I just didn’t think it would work for my son and me. No matter how many times this man assured me, “My parents will **love** your son!”, I wasn’t entirely convinced. As it turned out, I married a man of my religious denomination and we have been happily married for 27 years.
