Bridging the Gap - The cultural exchange thread

[PatientZero]

Judaism is so massively complicated that it often leads to disagreements.

^This.
Like, for real, it's actually really hard to get across to people from a purely Christian background, but beyond the broad strokes Judaism is a lot less black and white than most other religions.

Also I suppose I should have clarified, I follow reformist Judaism, which is much less dogmatic and more social/democratic. While religion is still part of it, I personally see the mitzvot as being fairly logical guidelines which may or may not be outdated in the modern age, and others which are just respectful or ceremonial.
