American jews simply do not understand how their religion was specifically and explicitly reformed as a critique of and response to the rise of 19th century nationalism. How could they? To an American, the 19th century is just the civil war and western expansion
interesting that reform judaism abandoned doctrinal anti-zionism right around the same time the evangelical church was getting fetal personhood grafted on to it from the catholics in order to do the southern strategy. probably nothing to it, jews marched with MLK Jr., you know
