So, in my world history class, we started watching a movie called “The Other Son”. Long story short, two religious families, one Arabic and one Jewish, had their sons switched at birth. The problem is, the fathers are very “politically and religiously involved” especially since this is a major time period in the Israel-Palestine conflict; which means that they did not take this well. Joseph, the boy raised by the Jewish family, went to see a religious figure to ask about converting to the respective Arabic religion that his biological family was a part of. The figure tells him that Yacine, the boy raised by the Arabic family, is a lot more Jewish than he is, even though Joseph spent 18 years being Jewish. All because Joseph's biological mother was Arabic.
What do you guys think? Is religion genetic?
