Not at all. Conservative? Or reform? I can totalyy see you being a cantor in a artsy temple.

Math needs to go up. And you know my feelings on religion.

DAME -- See THAT I have to figure out. I'm at a conservative seminary. I've been raised as such. But I tend to lean towards reform in my belief and certainly observance.

An artsy temple, eh? That actually sounds very nice!

Brd...C's in math and religion I completely understand! Rough subjects, even now.

bd-once again very sorry for your loss





and what's a partner?

[DAME]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:40pm

Shira.... Is this somethig you have always wanted to do?

[shira467]

I love singing (yes, cliche, I know) but I've always found that to be link to Judaism. The liturgy and monotony can drive me nuts, but when I'm singing or reading the Torah, its something different.

And it might be nice to mix the two in my endeavors in life - singing and Judaism.

However, the question is where I go...where and how I affiliate?

Harris - law partner? We own the firm. We are actually share holders, but the traditional term is partner.

In these parts, we must double check on these things, brd.

[DAME]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:46pm

Shira- I know it sounds corny. But you will have to follow your heart. I do believe the reform side will be more understanding of your affiliation as a hussy.. and the hussys you hang with

[shira467]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:50pm

Exactly.

However, does that mean I should feel like a hypocrite at the seminary when I am now?

[brdlwyr]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:50pm

I started singing again two years ago and I love it!

[shira467]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:52pm

I've always loved it -- indeed, my name means "song"

[DAME]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:55pm

Shira; there is no need to feel like a hypocrite. You are getting a education. You are capable of forming your own believes and just learn from what is being presented to you. And with that education you can become whatever kind of religous cantor you want to be. Does that make any sense?

[brdlwyr]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:56pm

Dame, do you sing?

[shira467]

Posted: 10/28/05 at 11:57pm

Yes it does...However, if I am ordained at a Conservative seminary, would I be accepted at a Reform congregation, and vice versa?

[DAME]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:03am

That.. you need to find out.

Brdwlyr; I love to sing.. but every tells me to shut up because I can't carry a tune.

[shira467]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:05am

Yeah, but singing like hell when your drunk is fun...not that I would ever know...

[DAME]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:06am

Yes it is fun! ( Not that I would know either)

[shira467]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:09am

Exactly, DAME.

So...it's 9ish for you, DAME. What do you plan on doing tonight?

[DAME]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:10am

Chilling. I have Oprah waiting for me on tivo and I am listening to Bette Midlers new cd.

[shira467]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:11am

Oh, that sounds like a great night!

I need to have a TV night in -- it's been forever since I lounged like that.

[DAME]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:13am

Well Shira and Brdlyr.. I am off. Time to lay on the couch and get involved with Oprah. Have a good evening.

[shira467]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:16am

I think its just me now...have fun DAME!

[gettinhep]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:20am

Y'all gave me a fine idea. I think that I'll go off and sing in the shower. I can't hurt people's eardrums in there.

[shira467]

Posted: 10/29/05 at 12:22am

Oooh, have fun hep. I hate communal bathrooms.
