I was having this conversation with my mother the other day about converting religions. The Catholics in my family (and I'm one of them) believe that once you are baptized a Catholic, that's it. There is no changing or switching. You are a lifer. You are only out if you are excommunicated and that is a really big deal.
Getting back to talking with mom, I asked her how she felt about someone who converted from Judaism to Catholicism. She said they were Catholic. I asked her the same thing about Catholicism to Judaism. She said they were really a Catholic. I know that there are other religions that feel the same way and many that do not. The point is that that is why people say it's in the "bloodlines."
