the only thing is, jews for jesus is a product of the protestant-baptist movement created in the early 1970s to convert jews. it's not a sect of judaism, at all. but i do agree with you, it's a shame that some people don't consider reform jews as jewish.
as much as people like that frustrate me, especially those who look down on reform as a movement, I think one of the biggest issues for us to look at is introspection within the Reform movement. hey_becca hits the nail on the head in saying that a lot of people ascribe to "choice through knowledge" without ever gaining the knowledge. interesting challenges for us as jewish youth, i suppose, to address in the future.
I just realized that I completely missed the point of your post...but I guess this kind of stuff is just more reasons to study Judaism in the future, nu?
I like how that angers you and wants you to educate people, but let's just set it straight that Jews for Jesus . . aren't actually Jews. Do we all understand that?
i love you dena, and just to make you feel better, i was told that israel doesn't exist because it was completely blown up in a nuclear attack in the 1960s.
