A Jewish father was concerned about his son who was about a year away from 
his Bar Mitzvah but was sorely lacking in his knowledge of the Jewish faith. 
To remedy this, he sent his son to Israel to experience his heritage. A year 
later the young man returned home.
"Father, thank you for sending me to the land of our Fathers," the son said. 
"It was wonderful and enlightening, however, I must confess that while in 
Israel I converted to Christianity."
"Oi vey," replied the father, "what have I done."
So in the tradition of the patriarchs, he went to his best friend and sought 
his advice and solace.
"It is amazing that you should come to me," stated his friend, "I too sent 
my son to Israel and he returned a Christian."
So in the tradition of the patriarchs they went to the Rabbi.
"It is amazing that you should come to me," stated the Rabbi, "I too sent my 
son to Israel and he returned a Christian. What is happening to our sons?" 
"Brothers, we must take this to the Lord," said the Rabbi.
So they fell to their knees and began to wail and pour out their hearts to 
the Almighty.
As they prayed the clouds opened and a mighty voice stated, "Amazing that 
you should come to me. I, too, sent my son to Israel..."
And this is a repeat for those, who looks to the answers at first...
