I’m an exmo in my 40’s and I have married a beautiful Jewish woman a few years ago. Since I’ve been married, my wife and I have counted 8 couples who are in our local synagogue who are also exmo-married-to-Jew. Is that weird? The congregation at the synagogue is not that big – perhaps as big as a mormon ward back in the 80’s. It just seems weird that there is only ONE other couple we know of in that group who are Jewish-married-to-prodastant/catholic/anything other than exmormon. It is very odd to me that exmormon spouses are married to Jews more than any other demomination.
I tell my wife that the Jews must take pity on us and that to marry a mormon is a way of doing Tzedakah.
BTW - we are both athiests.
Of course this is my own observation from my limited part of the world (San Francisco North bay area)…has anyone else noticed a similar trend?
