Many people have a misconception about Judaism that impedes their ability to take our religion seriously and to commit to living the Jewish way of life. Let me tell you about one such person and about the conversation that I had with him. Let’s call him Richard.
Richard was a very dedicated participant in a class I once gave for individuals with a very limited familiarity with the Jewish faith. As I recall, the title of the course was “Fundamentals of Judaism for Beginners.” Besides my weekly lectures, I invited the students to meet with me for informal “conversations,” during which we would discuss their personal reactions to what we were studying formally in the classroom.
