How about “Tales of an ex-Athiest”?
Interesting phenomena. Very insular communities such as the Hassidim and Amish do provide individuals with a sense of belonging, community and a very comfortable but extremely narrow niche. However the story of civilization and progress is also the story of detribalization. Individuals must detach themselves from the mundane regularity and comfort of the group and develop new ideas and things. Some do fail miserably and are lost. But those that succeed enhance us all.
I visited a small Messianic Jewish temple. Many of the ethnically Jewish folks there still dress in the Hasidic manner, especially the women, who stay covered up, including their hair. They observe the holy days of both religions (Passover and Easter, etc), and read from the New Testament after passing the Torah around the congregation and reading from the Hebrew bible. The rabbi dresses traditionally and wears a yarmulke and sidecurls. They give thanks for their Messiah Jeshua (Jesus) having already come!
I just moved away from NY. These folks are interesting indeed.
