For each story of a misguided Jew converting to Christianity and then spitting in his water well, one can get a story of a non Jew converting to Judaism and doing the same spitting in their own water wells (like the Khuzars?). Instead of giving me citations of converts selectively mis-citing the Talmud, why don't you give me the tractate in the Talmud where these things are taught?
I know why, those are fabrications, cite the sources or else keep your peace.
By the way, Judaism does not have "Illegitimates Children, it has either a "Mamzer", a child who is the result of an adulterous relation, or other Jewish children (if the mother was not wed and had a child out of wedlock, the child is not a mamzer). As for Jesus, Joseph, apparently was not the Father, Mary was married to Joseph, even if the almighty was indeed the father, Jesus is still, by the old testament's law, not the Talmud, mind you, a Mamzer. I do not remember an exemption in the ten commandments or elsewhere in the Torah, whereas under the unique circumstances where a married woman bears a child not from her husband, but the father is the almighty, that the child is not a Mamzer". Thus, if this passage is indeed in the Talmud, all the Talmud did was apply very strictly the law then in force. You think God gets special treatment in Judaism? He needs to atone for "coveting" just as we all do.
What bugs me about the Torah, however, that Gods get away with coveting but the Mamzer, the poor bastard that had nothing to do with the coveting, he and his "seeds" bears the punishment and are excommunicated from Judaism for 10 generations.
