HEY! (HEY!)
JEWS! (JEWS!)
I DON'T LIKE YOUR GIRLFRIEND

So at the reform Rosh Hashanah service I went to they blew the shofar (actually they had 4 people blowing them) even though it was Shabbat/the Sabbath (they do not blow the shofar on Shabbat in Conservative and Orthodox synagogues), and the Rabbi had his sermon on his Mac (not handwritten notes). Wow.

OK and I thought "What a Wonderful World" sing-along was bad.

Hey Jews FYI last night in Jew School I learned that according to the Talmud, pickle liquor does not count as food/drink on Yom Kippur. So I will be taking a flask of pickle juice to services.

yall i had the most amazing jewish-hungarian food in budapest last week, thank you so much for existing for 5000 years and undergoing countless acts of persecution so you could bring me stuffed goose neck and cabbage noodles

You could say we invented comfort food.

i didnt know stuffed goose is an hungarian dish?!
more like goulash and stuffed cabbage...

easy fast, jews!

more like an easy 24 hours stay at home for me.
i'm not fasting, but i gotta finish this book..

g'mar hativah tova!

oy gevalt

Tattoo jew. I could do.

some of those tats are pretty sweet

Why should I care about this? Christians adopted a "fresher" take on their religion and gave the world Stryper, Evanescence, and Creed. Screw religion.

A "fresher" take Jorgen101? Yes, how could we forget "Christian freshness" spawned Hitler, the KKK, Southern Baptist lynchings, African American Slave trade, and an entirely beautiful re-versioning that Jesus himself wasn't really Jewish but somehow a blonde-haired, blue eyed Aryan. Thank you for "freshening" up Religion Jorgen101, I'm sure everyone's money donations in the collection bins on Sunday would be greatly appreciated and everyone needs to convert to the "fresher" religion, because we all know through history what happens to those who choose not to convert ;) you're quite the intellect here on this CNN discussion. less

ronen has some very challenging opinions, should post here

"When I'm on stage screaming, hitting my face with a microphone and pouring beer on my head, at least I'm singing about the Torah," said the 26-year-old founder of PunkTorah, an outreach effort to inspire Jewish spirituality.

UH

tbh I thought that was awesome

These Internet and media savvy Jews are behind what Ari Wallach, a 34-year-old social entrepreneur and consultant in New York, likes to call "Judaism 2.0."

OY VEY

Maybe we should change thread title.

Oy. I know some of the people involved with this, but I wasn't sure what it was till now.

OTM

"judaism 2.0"

somehow i feel like we've been though more than just one version in the last several thousand years. more like judaism 1,769.0.

I wish there was some kind of reasonable middle ground between being a hidebound traditionalist and a tattooed idiot blogger

it's called indifference. been working for me.

Purim, bitchez!

drunkenness!

And, according to the above image, vaginas!

Ha. Not till February 28th, right?

Correct. But it never to early for hamantachen (sp?) vaginas, really.

I have hamantaschen earrings.

Awesome.

So rapper/singer/tv actor Drake's Mom is Jewish and he had a Bar Mitzvah though he didn't go to Hebrew School. He is interviewed here by an annoying interviewer (some ugly Youtube comments included)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mJJrvgYPXSo

Or do we have a separate "Wow, He's Jewish" thread where us Jews express joy or shame!

how do you have a bar mitzvah without going to Hebrew school...? did he just "wing it" through the torah portion or what?

Might've had a party but didn't read from the Torah.

My son says he just skipped class alot but that he worked with a tutor so as to read from the Torah.

Oh, yeah. I didn't learn to lein from school. I learnt from one of the torah readers from my shul

I cried in Hebrew class the other week. Felt like a real Jew!

Crying made you feel like a real Jew?

I watched A Serious Man and man did that make me feel like a real jew

Jew even

Having a Hebrew school meltdown seemed like a Jewish rite of passage, is all.

WHY U SO HARD TO LEARN, HEBREW?

Wait till you try to read it without the vowels. You might need a straight jacket then.
