[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you seeing it as "giving up?" Maybe it's a sincere choice - or they weren't religious to begin with. Why are you so bothered by the personal choices of others? [/quote] [b]NP. Because it's a core belief of Judaism that klal Yisrael is one people, all connected and responsible for each other.There's no such thing as a "personal choice" [/b]that doesn't affect anybody else in Judaism, even if we don't see it or understand how. And it's part of the daily prayers to ask G-d to help us repent, come closer to Torah, and gather in the exiles so that Moshiach can come and bring about the final redemption. Every person who marries out and falls away from keeping Torah and mitzvos takes us one step farther away from that. That's what bothers me, while fully recognizing that non-Orthodox people don't see it that way and don't care what we think. [/quote] With this explanation, now I can fully see why some people would want to... branch out.[/quote]
