There are many reasons why I
choose Judaism, one of which was that the person who was truly my best friend
at college is Jewish. He said that he
was Jewish, and that he was very nice interested me in Judaism in the way that
a spark inspires a mosquito to fly toward the Light. Additionally, I grew up in a USA that loved
Israel, where we Americans drew near to her, so far as I knew.
At the time that I lived on the
same dorm floor as my Jewish friend, I claimed that I was a Christian though I
had been unable to ascertain exactly what that meant. I grew up attending church and even playing guitar
in the praise band, but I didn’t have an idea what Christianity was.
If I had to define Christianity, in my youth I could
liken Christianity to speaking a type of gibberish that I seemed to be unable
to learn and doing good deeds.
Sadly,
one of the reasons I left Christianity is that it taught to emphasize some sort
of foolish faith based salvation that had nothing to do with doing good deeds.
