I think no matter how lapsed you are, how assimilated, how little respect you have for Judaism as a religion or skepticism you have about Israel, when push comes to shove, if you ever had the slightest bit of Jewish identity, there is something in your gut that makes you Jewish forever. You can be a practicing Buddhist. You can be a Wiccan. You can believe that Israel does itself no good when it elects right-wing warmongers and practices atrocities against the Palestinians. But at the end of the day, your gut knows you are Jewish.

And that is why this video turned me into a little blog of jello on the floor:

Tears in my eyes. (No, I'm not Jewish. Just culturally Jewish.)

Thanks so much, Jill. I'm going to spread this one far and wide. And I'll be sharing the posters far and wide, too.
