This is an addendum to my recent re-posting of my Reform Synagogues
article. After receiving mail from Avi Gross on the matter, I have
realized that the scope of my request may have been too narrow. I do
not mean to pidgeonhole anyone into Reform, Conservative, or any other
classification. Indeed, my old congregation, being in an area with a
low Jewish population, had to cater to the needs of a wide variety of
Jews. So, though it is officially a Reform synagogue, the Friday night
services are conducted as 'Reform' services, while the Saturday morning
services are conducted as 'Conservative' or 'traditional' services.
In light of this, I would like to clarify and extend my request:
regardless of your personal 'classification' or lack thereof, please
feel free to respond in regards to ANY congregation that you presently
or have at once attended--Reform, Orthodox, or whatever. Even though I
probably would not consider joining an Orthodox congregation, I don't
want to draw any lines or exclude anyone from this survey, especially
since the results might be of general interest to this net.
To everyone who replies, thanks in advance.
