I don’t often talk about this on Twitter. I’ve been converting for over a year now (my mother had a reform conversion) After a year and a half of hard work I got notice of my final Beit Din date a week from today! If ppl can keep me in their tefillah I would be so grateful!.

If you are a convert or a convert in process Judaism has and always been yours. The torah says your soul was at Mount Sinai. Judaism and all of its traditions belong to you.

I don’t know what leftist needs to hear this but America circa WWII had a massive antisemitism problem and literally the only reason they went to war was because Japan bombed them. It had nothing to do with wanting to save the Jews.

Hi sex educator here this is correct that it becomes less effective if your over 165 (it could still work but the percentage goes down a lot) BUT you can go to any planned parenthood and be prescribed Ella. Ella also works up to 5 days so u can use past the 72 hour window plan B.
it also doesn’t work if you weigh over 165 lbs.

Judaism is super sex positive ( I teach classes about this and I am happy to discuss it with anyone!) but the comparison of ritual prayer and objects such as tefillin and tachanun to kink is incredibly disrespectful and should not have been published.

I need non-Jews to understand that the Holocaust didn’t just affect the lives of Jews who lived in camps. My family left from Austria 10 years prior to the Holocaust fleeing Antisemitism and they saw what was happening in Europe and fully stopped practicing.

it is obvious that those of u who hate patrilineal Jews, converts and interfaith couples have never stepped into an orthodox Shul. Not a single orthodox Rabbi ever has been like “welcome to my synagogue how are you Jewish?” You know why? Because it is against Halacha.

@Kosherqueen_ You can put any modifier before the word orthodox that works for you, but the truth is that orthodox girls don’t go to bars.

I don’t know what goyim need to hear this but if you are born in Israel you can’t just choose not to go to the IDF. You will go to jail. You all can be mad at systems but being mad at people who are FORCED to participate in those systems is wrong and reaks of antisemitism.

I wish every Jew would understand that teshuva is a process that doesn’t have to happen all at once. I started keeping tzniut, shabbos and kosher 2 years ago. I didn’t regularly wash and bench till recently and I started being shomer negiah 3 months ago. It isn’t all or nothing.

Are we really so caught up in semantics that you can’t condemn the burning and destruction of a village? Just because Jews are the ones inflicting the violence does not make them right. Are Palestinians really so subhuman to you all?.

Incredibly hot incredibly personal take but the path to conversion for patrilineal Jews in frum communities MUST be simplified. Their is no world in which my conversion as someone who ONLY KNEW JUDAISM should of take 4.5 years.
Doing nothing about something for decades until it becomes crystallized as a fundamental aspect of American Jewish life, and then being like "oh no this is bad, let's talk about how bad it is" is truly the apotheosis of Modern Orthodoxy.

People question the motives of converts to Judaism which is ridiculous for many reasons but mostly bc my conversion is going to cost me around $8,000 and I know I am not the only one in that position. Converts are putting out thousands of dollars bc they believe sm that much.

Converting into Judaism as an Atheist mostly confuses me more then anything else. Cultural Judaism is product of generations of history. Converts are supposed to accept the Rambam’s 13 principles of the Jewish faith. You wouldn’t convert into someone else’s culture.

The belief that orthodox leftists do not exist is a direct product of the deep anti-religion sentiment on the Jewish left. We exist. We just don’t want to organize with you.
