Not being a Jew myself(although my Savior is one), I can’t claim any expertise on all the differences between Orthodox, Reform, Conservative Judaism. I must say it does seem strange to me if a Jew thinks same sex sexual acts are OK then why would that same Jew have any problems with someone eating bacon or any other non-kosher foods? For the same reason, I’ve never understood Joseph Lieberman. He refused to campaign on the Sabbath but at the same time has one of the strongest pro-abortion(including late-term, partial-birth abortions I believe) voting records in the Senate. I just can’t wrap my mind around the sort of thinking or logic that results in those kind of contradictions.

You are a Christian too, I assume, and all we need think of is the homo episcopal bishop that left his wife and kids for his man, or the Presbyterian USAs funding abortion, or Phelps’ demonstrations at military funerals, etc. Many “churches” today are nothing of the sort. There is a huge diversity among the many denominations. Similarly you have Jews running the gamut from Orthodox Sabbath keeping yarmulke wearing Jews to the Reforms who don’t even believe a particular Messiah is due to arrive one day.
