<DIV>AFAIK a challal can marry a regular Jewish girl. He is forbidden from
<BR>other things like truma. OTOH he has no issur of
tumah.<BR><BR>Ben<BR>ben1456@zahav.net.il </DIV>

<DIV>But I think the son of a challal is a challal, and his son, and his son,
forever. And the daughter of a challal cannot marry a kohen. So his
granddaughter (son of his son), his great-granddaughter and so on, can never
marry kohanim -- at least until so many generations have passed that no one
remembers the family are challalim. Whereas if he has a son with a
non-Jewish woman that son is not a challal. He's also not a Jew, but he
can become one. And the daughter of a ger can marry a kohen.</DIV>
