[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm Jewish, belong to a Reform temple, observant. I feel as though I have more in common with many Muslims than I do with the Hasids. [/quote] lol- i'm Muslim and agree with you- i grew up in potomac/bethesda and my jewish friends always said islam was reform judaism before there was reform judaism. we travel up to the Catskills a lot and so Ive done a lot of reading on Hasidim and thy are very different from otherJewish communities. Mainstream Judaism is very different from these communities, they are almost like the Amish, in fact, theologically i think lutherans and Amish have a lot in common comparatively. Its borderline antisemitic to suggest that other Jews somehow are responsible for dealing with extremist groups that self identify as the same as them. Also- not all Hasids are so bad, some are quite nice, we've had really nice conversations with some families while on vacation and I am a Hijab wearing Muslim. [/quote]
