That's likely far more than were displaced in the original Jewish diaspora. And who is to say any of these Arabs were original inhabitants of the land in which we now call Israel? Remember Arabs from Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon moved in seeking jobs once Jews started moving back in and developing the land. Many fled in 1948 when the Arab armies attacked and they were promised their homes back plus prime Israeli land once the state of Israel was destroyed. Many stayed. Those that gambled lost , those that stayed kept what they had. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

No, I was serious about that. I can't prove it, but when you hear about people converting you usually hear of them converting to the other major religions of the world, Christianity Islam and Buddhism. As you said earlier Jews tend to discourage conversion to their religion or at least not make it easy. Because of this I would think the major reason for people converting to Judaism would be because their spouse was Jewish. I wouldn't be surprised in this time if more people didn't try to explore the possibility but I don't think it would be common. __._,_.___ To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'

They still use words to identify special places. "God-given land" for instance... No, they had been on pretty much the same piece of real estate for some 2,000 years but never went around expanding their country by saying some place was holy thus it belonged to them.

In Nepal and Bali, Hinduism is the major religion, and is still reflected in the traditional culture and architecture.
