Thanks for your Answer,Jason. It is very interesting for me, hearing from a jewish person, who made aliyah.
Maybe we have a different approach. If G-d would ask me to dance on one leg and singing the national anthem of Lithuania backwards, I would think "Ok, that's really strange, but if you want me to do that, I will do it for you, because I like you very much and I trust you, that this strange thing is really necessary." On the other hand, I have an easy live, as a noahide, I can eat my burger with cheese and live a life, that will fit to a "normal" lifestyle. No one will ask me a question, why I behave in this or that manner. It is comfortable.
By the way, my wife asked me lately why I am so religious, and why I am not satisfied just being a person of high moral standard. I answered: Well, even an atheist can be a person of high moral standard, it depends on WHY one is a person of high moral standard. As I understand it, it is G-d's demand on me, and I will obey (no matter, that being of high moral standard is a good advice for everyone). It is just my approach of thinking.
