Description

Is there ever patrilineal descent? Are gentiles goyim? Can one convert a woman who wants to marry a kohen? Can one convert someone not interested in mitzvos? Who was the beis din(BD) at Sinai? If a convert lied to the BD, can the BD cancel the geirus? Can one tell a frum convert, that he is not really Jewish, because a Reform BD converted him? Can one convert a baby on behalf of a non religious or a homosexual couple? Can one be tovel before milah? Is a bracha recited when circumcising or converting a baby? Can a insincere convert marry a gentile? Is marriage valid with a Reform Jew? Can a Jew for Jesus perform chalitza? Does the fetus of a pregnant convert require tevilah? Should one teach a potential convert, all the laws of the torah?
