A tallit-and-tefillin-wearing woman in a traditional Conservative synagogue?! An unorthodox—and non-orthodox—perspective on Jews and Judaism from a perpetual misfit. This blog, welcoming the entire Jewish community, is dedicated to those who take Judaism seriously, but not necessarily literally.
From my May 29, 2020 at 10:37 AM Facebook post regarding the mass murder at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas:
"Lest anyone think that we don't make sacrifices to Molech anymore . . .
https://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/.../10937-moloch-molech"I was looking on my blog for a different post, and found American Akeidah. This post is dated Tuesday, August 06, 2019--apparently, I've been thinking about the Molech connection for years. 😢

Once upon a time, I belonged to a left-wing egalitarian Conservative synagogue, where I was one of a number of women who wore a tallit—and one of the few members who used an Orthodox prayer book (adding the Mothers, of course). Having moved since then, I now belong to a right-wing traditional Conservative synagogue, where I’m almost always the only woman wearing a tallit—and one of the few members who adds the Mothers. I seem destined to be forever . . . on the fringe.
