Proselytization And Counter-proselytization Of Jews
A number of religious groups, particularly particularly Christians and Muslims, are involved in proselytization of Jews, attempts to recruit, or "missionize" Jews to abandon Judaism. Additionally, there are a number of Jewish counter-missionary and anti-missionary organizations that oppose proselytism by missionaries who work to convert Jews to other faiths and religions.
There are established Jewish counter-missionary organizations that discourage practicing as well as non-practicing Jews from converting to other religions, most often Christianity. These groups can be found within all Jewish denominations.

Famous quotes containing the word jews:
“When Hitler attacked the Jews ... I was not a Jew, therefore, I was not concerned. And when Hitler attacked the Catholics, I was not a Catholic, and therefore, I was not concerned. And when Hitler attacked the unions and the industrialists, I was not a member of the unions and I was not concerned. Then, Hitler attacked me and the Protestant church—and there was nobody left to be concerned.”
—Martin Niemller (1892–1984)
