I prefer science
Most people know very little about it.
You can get most of your questions answered at a website called Judaism 101.
Jews are a tiny minority. Worldwide there are only 13 million Jews, which represents 0.2% of the population.
Our numbers will remain small because we are forbidden to recruit converts.
If you have any questions, I'll be glad to answer them.

I wish people would stop trying to convert people and just try to be GOOD people

Judaism accepts converts, but Jewish law forbids us to proselytize. We are not allowed to recruit.
Converting to Judaism is not easy. It involves lots of reading and study and a rabbi must approve of you before you undergo conversion. The rabbi will test your knowledge before he approves you. It generally takes 6 months or more.

Ta. I knew about the second bit - one of my daughter's Mother-in-Law just converted.
Owl Woman - once upon a time, when I was in the RAF, I decided there was no future here and decided to emigrate to 'Israel'. A Jewish friend said 'No problem - just tell 'em you're Jewish: if you're not an Arab, no problem'. I think that makers it political, probably. I was lucky and met some Palestinians in a pub, learning better!
