No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

If Sienfeld, King of the Hill and Family Guy are accurate about this (sure they're just TV shows and two are cartoons, but for 3 different things to show the same specific shit there must be some truth), you can't just convert to Judaism overnight. There are things you have to actually do and they require study. Often years of it. It's not like Christianity where you can just say "I believe this now" and have them welcome you as one of their own faith.
So even if getting a trip was as easy as becoming Jewish, becoming Jewish isn't that easy.
Are you saying you can’t just declare Judaism the way you declare bankruptcy?
"No Micheal, you can't just say Judaism and be Jewish."
"I didn't say it. I declared it."
Christianity has study and shit too , bud
Which church asks people to study? You can simply start going to a church and no one will bat an eye. I've met Christians who couldn't even read, and even the ones that can have a very limited interest in reading what they consider to be the most important book there is. As a general rule just as a casual reader I've read more of the bible than the average Christian, I definitely can't say the same about Jews since they point out that I didn't read it in Hebraic and usually know it better than I do.
Catholicism requires about a year of studying to convert or you won't be allowed to take sacraments. Although in reality no one is really checking and you could theoretically fake your way through it.
It's not required tho.
That depends on who is gatekeeping. I don't think there is any christian nation-state offering a "right to return" but i would imagine they would have a litmus test too of they did.
It does, but converting is basically the first step. You can simply just accept Jesus as your saviour, you will need to get baptised at some point and participate in communion, but that's it.
Catholics need communion, not Christians. Even baptism isn't required in Christianity, Catholicism does require it.
The only requirement is accepting Jesus as your savior. Everything else is merit badges that only deepen your involvement.
