In Memphis, there is an enclave in the Eastern part of the city proper, around a temple... where it’s generally accepted that if your home is on one of the key footpath routes to Temple, people are going to walk right through your back yard on Saturdays. So I’m led to understand. And if you don’t want to deal with that, well, you move to another neighborhood.

"Temple" is a term used exclusively by "Reform" Jews, and "Reform" Jews will drive on Shabbat.

Orthodox Jews, who have to walk on Shabbat, do not call their synagogues "temples."

I stand corrected. Thank you. I did not know the difference. Obviously I am not Jewish.
