Best Answer

The Pharisees and Sadducees were Jewish religious and political organizations. A person did not become a Pharisee or a Sadducee unless one informally converted from the other (or another sect of contemporaneous Judaism). This is similar to how one would change from being an Anglican to an Episcopalian or the reverse.

A further similarity is that membership in these groups was typically passed from father to son. This was certainly more prevalent in the Sadducees where knowing your ancestry was critical to proving why you should have membership in the group. (Sadducee is in Hebrew Zadoki (צדוקי) from the name of the High Priest during King David's time Zadok (צדוק). All Sadducees claimed be part of the Cohen-line, but specifically were the cultural heirs, if not genetic heirs, of Zadok.)

The Pharisees had, for wont of a better term, more open admission. The Pharisaic movement was a populist movement, incorporating local traditions and practices into Judaism. It argued that the Sadducees were no longer traditional and had been corrupted by their power to abrogate the tradition, while the people retained the religion amidst their poverty. Those who held this view, could join the Pharisees and their religious view. The Pharisees, like the Sadducees, and even Jesus himself on occasions, viewed non-Jewish inhabitants of Roman Palestine with disdain. These inhabitants included the Samarians and Arameans. These peoples could never become Pharisees or Sadducees.
