Wandering Jew

This guy is so obviously Jewish.

[Daveed Gartenstein-Ross] began to examine his own spiritual identity after experiencing a couple of brushes with death caused by illness. “That kind of thing can cause spiritual discomfort and make you reevaluate what it is that you’re living for,” he told CNN. A college friend introduced him to Islam and he was intrigued by its peaceful message. “Islam was a very simple faith and as I learned more and more about it, it seemed more and more fascinating to me,” he said.

Obviously, the best place for a nice Jewish boy to find Spirituality is Islam.

He experimented with a radical form of Islam that eventually led him to shun music, reject women’s rights and even refuse to touch dogs because he believed this was “according to God’s will.”

Just as obvious – no Jew could “just be a Muslim,” he had to be a radical one.

And when Islam doesn’t do it, what next?

A year later, he converted to Christianity and was eventually baptized in the Baptist church.

Dude, just be Jewish – it is ok – we won’t make fun of you, really.
