BTW, there is a pretty common idea in Christianity (NT based, and reasonable I think) that the Jews were suppose to spread God's worship to the surrounding nations. To be an example.

This is one of the failings of Hezikiah (SP?), who was otherwise a good king.

I personally think that through all the time of persecution, a certain amount of insularism arose. And it is this that gives the current Jewish practice to discourage converts.
