experience with me? 1. How did you become interested in Judaism?
2. Can you explain why Jews are so family oriented? Did converting make you feel like you had a family?
3. What was the conversion process?
4. How did you know that you had found the right temple?
5. What was yoru first meeting...
Do some "reform" or "liberal" Jewish groups make it too easy to convert to Judaism?
For example, most Orthodox sects demand that you at least learn classical Hebrew and be able to read the collected archives of the Torah as compiled by scholars during the Middle Ages and Renaissance.

...Religion as a whole? I think so.
I was an Atheist from the age of 14 to the age of 24.
It was learning the tenets of Reform Judaism in a college-level Comparative Religions course that finally corrected my hateful views towards Religion in general.
What say you?
Pennywise:
Fair enough, I...
i have:
drug tests
diversion (offering people jobs rather than benefits)
standards that you need to meet
time limit for benefits

Boehner's Health Delusion The Washington Post The same swing voters who used the election to hurt the Democrats might learn that America's health-care system is No. 1 only in health-related bankruptcies. It is best in the world only for the rich and the amply insured. Everyone else can crawl...
You say you don't want to be forced to have to carry health insurance.
Did you know that you have to pay taxes for children's education, even if you don't have any kids? You have to pay it even if you send your kids to private schools? Even if you homeschool your children?

For me it would be a tough choice between The Smiths and The Stone Roses. I've seen The Stone Roses so I suppose I'd have to say The Smiths. I'd love The Clash to reform but that's not possible without Joe Strummer. How about you?
My boyfriend is a Reform Jew. He told me that he keeps kosher in the home – he doesn't eat the meat prohibited by the laws, he doesn't mix meat and dairy, etc. What I want to know is, are Reform Jews generally able to eat food that's been cooked/prepared by non-Jews?
