It was not Bania who converted to Judaism for the jokes. It was Tim Whatley, the dentist.

Don't forget that at one point George converted to Latvian Orthodox for a woman.

But then again George converted to some Eastern Orthodox whatever

And Elaine will just burn in Hell, especially since she was living with Puddy before marriage...

I think George was sort of a Jewish/Catholic mix.

Imagine the guilt....

I think I remember George talking about or referring to Christmas. This may have been before the Festivus episode. Mary Ellen "Trevor Smithson" wrote in message news:[email]...

Wasn't it Tim Whatley that changed religions for the jokes?

     That was Jerry's theory (although Whatley himself denied it)...
     Of course, Whatley wasn't the only one to change religions. Remember when
George bailed out of Catholicism and became Latvian Orthodox to impress his
girlfriend of the moment---only to see her move to Latvia?
     Jerry and Elaine were pretty casual about religion from start to finish,
of course...and Kramer? God only knows what, if anything, he ever thought about
the subject.

BTW: What makes you think he bailed out of "catholicism? George's religion was never mentioned.

UNless new evidence not already uncovered and scrutinized turns up, I'm still assuming that Frank was Catholic and Estelle was Jewish, which would have made George Jewish.
