hmmm...i don't know but that is a good question. fh cousin's father is a rabbi and she had a baby shower b4 the baby was born (which is unusual) so maybe.

No I dont think so. My boss is catholic and his wife is Jewish and he said the traditional way is the kids follow the mothers religion.

You will defintiely find someone. The only people who would not do it would be MAYBE orthodox or 'conservadox'. But even so, most people believe a child CAn be initaited into the Jewish religion, and all that is required is a bris and sometimes a mikvah as well, adn this is according to a course I took with an orthodx rabbi.
