Pirkei Avot 2:16 tells us, “It is not your duty to finish the work, but neither are you at liberty to neglect it.”
Check out the awesome work that USY is doing ! Kol hakavod!
@Conservative Jews: who or what determines your Jewish practice? Like how do you get the halakhic interpretation that ~you~ follow? Like your rabbi or family practice or community norms or do you just kind of decide yourself?
From the blog of Alden Solovy at The Times of Israel
Did you see the stone that fell from the Western Wall in Jerusalem?
Check out this new post from poet Alden Solovy.
The Western Wall saga is really a desire by Reform and or women to be recognized as equals in Judaism. Reform is modern day Judaism. It is a place where people like me (feminist/lgbtqia), who don't feel we have a place in Orthodox Judasim. When I hear of the Western Wall saga or that an Orthodox Rabbi won't even share a stage with a Reform Rabbi. I feel it is a slap to the face. With the rising levels of antisemitism and the sake of our future, Judaism needs to be united.
Hi there,
There are many ways to be a modern Jew. Although you and I both feel that the most meaningful, inclusive, and righteous form of Judaism is through a progressive lens, we cannot use the same spight back towards other denominations.
I think that you will really appreciate my Rosh Hashanah sermon that I will be delivered tomorrow morning at my student pulpit and will be available for my followers at 12:15 EST.
I hope that you and your family have a very blessed Rosh Hashanah!
Gmar Hatima Tova!

Do you know any sources that I can learn about the subclasses (branches?) of Judaism?
Hi anon,
Each of their respective websites are great resources. The following organizations I personally consider to be the vibrancy that is Progressive Judaism.
Modern Orthodox (The Orthodox Union)
Conservative Judaism (The United Synagogue for Conservative Judaism)
Reconstructionist Judaism
Reform Judaism (The Union for Reform Judaism)
The World Union for Progressive Judaism (representing all Reform and Reconstructionist Congregations around the world)
“ReformJudaism.org” is a fabulous resource
Religious Action Center, the “social justice hub” of the Reform Movement
Jewish Renewal
If you have any further questions about the major branches, please do not hesitate to send me a private or direct message.
