You know what? A Jew is a Jew.
I attend a Conservative synagogue, but I’m not a “Conservative Jew”—I’m simply a Jew.
There aren’t “Reform Jews” or “Orthodox Jews.” There are just Jews. Jews who go to Reform temples, Orthodox shuls, or anywhere else are all Jews.
Even Jews who eat at Wendy’s on Yom Kippur? Still Jews.
Kohanim, Levi’im, and converts—every one of them is a Jew.
Jews in Israel, Jews in Canada, Jews whose families come from Berlin or Ethiopia—we're all Jews.
Labels are just convenient shortcuts, but don't let them divide or "other" us.
Of course, Jews who join groups like Jews for Jesus are Christians. That’s a different matter entirely.
