[quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous][quote=Muslima][quote=Anonymous]Muslima,

I am a reform jew.  I am not particularly observant -- I do not keep kosher and observe the sabbath in the way I choose...I will use power, and will drive to synagog.

If you are interested, I am sure you would be welcome at many synagogs for friday or saturday services.  I am confident my synagog would be welcoming (Temple Rodef Shalom in Falls Church).  If you do come to services, please be aware, you will here strongly pro-israeli speak, even if specific policies are debated.

At my synagog, people are very supportive of Israel, even though we want to see some policies change.  [/quote]

To be honest,  though id love to , I'd be bit scared to go to a synagogue.  I have been to churches before but never dared enter in a synagogue, especially now with all the Israeli-Palestinian discourse. I've already lost 2 Jewish and one Israeli friend over it and they unfriended me on Fbook as well, so I know it's an emotional topic.[/quote]

Wait until things settle down.  They will settle down.  At my synagog, you would probably be safe.  There is heightened security, though, and people might question you.  If you were to come, I would encourage you to reach out to the clergy first.

In general, jews do not try to convert.  And we alway pray for peace.

Good to know, thanks![/quote]
