[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You might like Washington Hebrew better. The history of Temple Sinai is that it broke off from Washington Hebrew because a group of congregants wanted to be more active in social justice issues. Basically the entire history of Temple Sinai is about its dedication to “praying with our feet”. [/quote] +1. WHC serves up pretty bland Judaism designed not to offend anyone. HHD sermons talk about feeding the poor (not challenging the systems that create poverty and low wage jobs), caring for the sick (but not why people are in debt due to lack of insurance), and generalized “do good.” I was a member for 5 years and it steered clear of anything remotely controversial. However, this was in the last decade (Bush years); never heard a sermon on the Iraq war, torture, etc. . I’m now a member of Temple Sinai. I think each of the rabbis has his/her areas of focus and not all are hugely political. [/quote]
