Hi!
Sorry to post in your personal journal, but I couldn't stand to have the weirdjews community on my friends list any longer, and now I can't reply to the comment you left to me!
I'm in love with my Reform temple and would never think of leaving it, but I've been interested in dipping a toe into the Reconstructionist waters just from what I've heard. I may have to pay a visit to one near me and see what it's all about.
So yeah, you should definitely drop by the Reconstructionist temple. We're in Evanston, at 303 Dodge (Basically 3 blocks north of Howard, on California, if you're in Chicago). It's a really nice place - so inclusive of all types of people. We do a LOT of community projects, to help the Chicago area and beyond. I love it because I don't really believe in the traditional G-d of the Torah, and I don't really like organized religion at all, so I use the temple as more of a Jewish ethnic / cultural center. Recently, the first female Jewish rabbi, a rabbi from a Jewish coop in Uganda, and other interesting guests come to visit.
I love it, I get so excited when I tell people!
