Judaism Why do you love Judaism?

[a_Sarah]

I love Judaism first and foremost because it is the original path to the Almighty.

I also like that it gives structure and discipline.

I like that there is a community that helps and reaches out to one another.

I like that we reach out to help others and don't necessarily need to be recognized for doing so.

I like there is constant teaching and that there is room for disagreement.

I like that we are a people.

I couldn't agree more. These are exactly the points that made me fall in love with Judaism so much and, after a period of doubt, reinforced my wish to convert. I am still on my journey of discovering what Judaism encompasses and what not, and, apart from all the disagreements on details, those are the core values that emerge from so many sources. I was very positively surprised by all those ressources that you can find if you want to learn more about Judaism - and especially that there are so many sources with different view points (that still mostly respect the views of the others, which has impressed me). I too love the emphasis on learning and on becoming better. I also like how in some branches modern concepts are integrated and reflected upon, such as mindfulness.

And I love that there is the concept of oneness of G-d, which is what made me look into Judaism in the first place, because this is what I believe in and what reflects my personal experiences.
