Oh My
I myself am not Jewish, but I spent three years of my life living with a Jewish man and spending time with a Jewish family because my mother dated one. I also lived near many Russian Jews. West Hollywood is filled with them. Quite neat. I sadly don't have much experience with Jewish religious services at temple... I do have knowledge of what Passover dinner is like and the many wonderful foods Russian and Israeli (they were Russian-Israeli Jews who moved to the US) Jewish people prepare and eat. HUMMUS AND FALAFEL. I MISS YOU. I MISS YOU TOO FALAFEL FLAVORED BISSLI!!
Now...DESCRIBE TO ME THIS TEMPLE THING.

Non-practicing, here.

Well, yeah.
Three-day Jew; I don't practice religion, and the religion I don't practice is Conservative-shading-into-Reform Judaism. But I live right on the border of Munkatcher Hasidim
territory and get on mailing lists.

Ashkenazic, vaguely practicing conservative-and-then-reform here. We still light the candles and say the prayers on shabbat, and celebrate the holidays, but we don't really belong to a synagogue anymore. However I, and pretty much everyone in my family is so unmistakably culturally Jewish that I can't consider ourselves "non practicing"

Oh, well, culturally, I mean, just look at my handle. Also, I'm planning my approach for a Yiddish translation.

I wish I was Ashkenazi...well, not in Pesach (our food rocks!) but at least you have Yiddish...Ladino is not...as funny as I wish it was

Because Jewishness ( at least according to Jewish law) goes by the mother. But your welcom on this thread anyways.

Except that, depending on what denomination, patrilineal is okay, too.

Let's not get into that. It will only lead to unnecessary arguments.

An Israeli - and thus, Jewish - troper here. (Though I wouldn't really describe myself as a troper, since I've done very, very little work around here). (Of course, I am aware that there are non-Jewish Israelis, such as the Arab populace, the Christian populace, et cetera. And it can get more complex)
Sephardic, Ladino-speaking, non-religious.
Culturally, I'm Jewish, but as of late I've stopped following most of the religious practices. :/ I am a baaaaad Jew.

There are less Jews here than I thought there were.
Ashkenazic reform Jewish. Practicing (!).

I heard there were jews in here
Two Wong's don't make a white.
Your Jews are in another castle.
I want to find out how many of my fellow tropers are also fellow jews, and also what kind of jew (orthodox, conservative, reform, other, ect)
So I guess I should start with myself: I am an orthodox jew and I hope that there are other jewish tropers who will post on this thread.
