Does being Conservative make you Orthodox?

Nope. A lot of "conservative" Jews don't keep Kosher, or only partially keep Kosher (Passover and abstaining from pork onnly). That's a bright line to mark them as "not Orthodox".

Sorry, pet peeve: halacha is much more than dietary laws. Also, there’s a lot of variety in Orthodox movements and the various traditions (Ashkenazi, Sephardic, etc.)
