why

my questions

As I write in my hag­gadah:
Ques­tion­ing is a sign of free­dom, and so we begin with ques­tions.
Does every ques­tion have an answer? Is the abil­i­ty to func­tion with­out hav­ing all the answers one more stage of lib­er­a­tion? Can we be enslaved to an obses­sive search for the answer?
I col­lect them here.

…be Jewish?

For over 25 years I taught the Intro­duc­tion to Judaism course offered by the UAHC/URJ in New York, New Jer­sey, and in San Diego.
I think that being Jew­ish is a won­der­ful­ly excit­ing way to live. Some peo­ple approach and won­der if they can do it too. For many years I taught a course that sug­gests some of the hows and excite­ment of becom­ing and being Jewish.
