--- Quote from: Benjamin_D on March 25, 2009, 08:02:26 PM ---Judaism is Judaism to me. I didn't like Reform Judaism, thought it was all liberal.... until I went to a Shabbat service at a Reform Synagogue and about every car in that parking lot had an anti-Obama, anti-Liberal bumper sticker. Depends on the Jew. Also, you get dedicated religious Jews and you don't. Ones that take the Torah seriously, and ones that don't.

That is a naive perspective. Reform 'Judaism' denies the divinity of Torah and as a result they have no concept of Mitzvot. As a result Reform have cut themselves off from the trunk of Jewish belief. As the article states Reform sees itself as a new religion. There is very little similarity between Reform and Jewish thought. The issue is not regarding politics it has to do with the belief that life has a purpose, for the Jewish nation and for the individual Jew. Reform is also the stepping stone to assimilation as most reform families have massive problems with intermarriage while Orthodox has much less.

Nadav:
Growing up reform, I can tell you that Reform 'Judaism' is a joke. Jewish education is so low on their agenda, it's sickening.

I only found out I wasn't Halakhically Jewish when I was about 18. When I turned 18 I wanted to be a Torah Jew. It was the shock of my life when I visited an Orthodox shul and was told I wasn't Jewish. My mother is a Spanish woman who converted to Reform 'Judaism.' So that pretty much left me as a gentile. I properly converted 3 years later and have been on the right road with G-d's help ever since. The Reform movement must be smashed, they have bastardized the word of Hashem.
