Posted in: Op-Ed: A precarious moment in Catholic-Jewish relations

When did Jesus convert to Catholism? I thought that he was born out of wedlock to a Jewish woman therefore making him a Jew. I find nothing in the Gospels which states that he converted, let alone in any Jewish documentation that was current to his birth, life, and death. Simply, he was born a Jew, lived as a Jew and was murdered by the Romans (present day Italians) therefore dying a Jew. What was good for Jesus is good for me.
