Bitch Uh I think he goes both ways, depending on the latest trends in religion

Mr.D

i think he's only jewish decendancy, dont think the parents practiced, and he never did (dunno about the childhood) but then was secular, then born again (after having a divine experience) that for a while, it got boring, so i think he gave it up again, lol, typical dylan throwing everyone's idea of him off, even himself

Yes they did.

All of Dylan's kids by his first wife were brought up in the Jewish faith and all of his sons were bar mitzvahed (in some cases AFTER his conversion to Christianity).

And theres plenty of pics of Bob, complete with yarmulke, at the Wailing Wall on his 30th birthday in 1971

Honky Tonk Man Not something I've thought about, but I beleive you are what you are. If he was born Jewish, he should die Jewish.

A bit harsh. You dont exactly have a choice when it comes to what you are at birth. Much better that you decide for yourself later on.

Yes.
And when it comes to religion or belief systems, nothing is final. At least IMO, at least for me.
