Israeli politics, from both sides (see video links)

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.

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.

Is there any particular reason that my previous comment here got deleted?
I deleted it because I'm too low-tech to know how to block people. I assume you're the same person who's hijacked several posts of mine to comment on a totally-unrelated topic, and I'm fed up. If you want to talk about something else, get your own blog!
Well, I wish that there was a thread where we could ask you Judaism-related questions but those that don't directly pertain to anything that you've written on your blog so far, Shira. I guess that this might be too much to ask for.
If so, then so be it. I'll discuss these topics elsewhere, if that's indeed the case.
