Katie Bar The Door - Kamtza Bar Kamtza Redoux

I have no words for the anger that I experienced upon hearing the following story.

An Israeli young lady who grew with very little connection to Judaism from a religious sense, currently, living and working in a U.S. city decided to visit a Shule on Yom Kippur. Simple enough.

Not to be, she was greeted at the door by an "usher" and asked for her ticket. She did not buy a ticket. Naively thinking that Shules were open to all Jews, she showed up wanting a connection to....the seating committee of the Shule....the Treasurer....the Yizkor Appeal....the people that bid for Aliyot? What could it be? Oh yeah...G-D. You know our Creator for whom we do all of this.

Gee, what would happen if we let all non-affiliated Jews into our Shule whenever they wanted to come thought the Shule officials....Katie Bar the Door!!!

She was escorted out of the Shule.

She know communes with Evangelical Christians.

Feeling a little queasy...GOOD!
