I am JBG, a Jewish poster from New York

I am JBG, a Jewish poster from New York. I am a reasonably observant Reform Jew. Maybe that is an oxymoron. About 3 out of 4 weeks I attend either Kabbalat Friday night services or Torah Study on Saturday morning, usually not both.

I am 65, was Bar Mitzvahed in 1970, and returned to interest in Judaism in January 1973. The Rabbi's explication of death rituals, after my Dad's passing, taught me more than I learned in the last two out of my three years of religious and Hebrew education.

Hi, and welcome to RF. I guess you are from NYC? I used to live in Rochester, NY, and my two best friends in high school were Jewish, but we never talked about religion. I have learned what I know about Judaism from this forum and other religious forums over the last 10 years, but I only know enough to be dangerous. ;)
