I wonder if this my coworker who gets weirdly testy about the subject of Judaism and will say things like “that is so insulting to Jews” even though she isn’t even Jewish (her husband is, she did not convert) and is just looking fur something to be aggrieved/superior about.

Ironically, I am Jewish and none of the stuff she think is offensive offends me. Like this question, which was not disrespectful, does not concern a high holy day, and is a totally reasonable thing to ask after seeing what OP saw. It would be like saying “I saw some folks leaving the Catholic Church near my office with smudges on their foreheads, but felt weird asking them directly what this was about— can someone tell me what Catholic holiday this is and what the smudges are?” See, not disrespectful, totally fine.[/quote]

It could also be one of DCUM’s angry atheists who can’t see a sincere question about religion without dumping all over it. [/quote]
