Do gerim recite Shelo asani goy? G-d made them goyim, and then they chose to be Jews. So then do they thank Hashem for not having made them goyim?

    There are three opinions as to whether someone who converted should recite the blessing of Shelo Asani Goy or not. The first opinion is that they should recite it. The second opinion is that they should recite “Sheasah Li Ger” instead. the last opinion is that they should not say it. Whichever opinion a convert follows, they are fulfilling the Halacha.
