Rabbi Jacques Cukierkorn on Conversion to Judaism

Wearing a head covering is a medieval tradition that has no basis in the Torah

[rudabeh]

If a person converts Reform in North America, will the Mizrachim recognize that person as Jewish?

[nyyankfan05]

No. Reform recognizes all conversions in the different braches of Judaism, but neither the Orthodox nor the Conservatives recognize conversion to a reform ideology as being Jewish.
