And people wonder why Reform synagogues are empty most weeks.
The irony is that their leftist political activism is antithetical to the founding purpose of Reform Judaism.

I was in a reform synagogue for a bar Mitzvah not long ago and when I saw the prayer book I nearly threw up. Everything is so fake prettied and watered down. The melodies are different and the words are different and the L-rd seems to be LGBT in gender.

I thought that all commandments had at their base “That which is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor.” I think in Reform Judaism, the base of all the commandments is “Diversity and total acceptance is higher than life itself.”
