Is Ryan Adams Converting to Judaism?

Adams: Future Jew?Adams: Future Jew?Like Rosie O'Donnell and John Mayer, singer Ryan Adams is a celebrity who really likes to blog. Lately, posts on his Tumblog have hinted that he's converting -- and not converting like Madonna, who's just about Kabbalah, but converting like Mare Winningham, who genuinely became a Jew. From today's post:

5. I am not catholic nor baptist. I am quietly converting but by the books, to a much older and less mystic religion which seems to respect God as someone to be feared and not understood, as I fear and don’t understand.

"Less mystic" is kind of a nice and thoughtful way of describing it, no? Also, because I know you were wondering, he thinks Bryan Adams is "not a serious artist."
