BLOGGING JEWISH IN DUTCHESS  

We American Jews believe that, as citizens of the United States in the XXI Century we constitute the forefront of what it means to be Jewish, and we are convinced that never before had Judaism been so free to explore all the possible implications of being Jewish - nor has any prior community enjoy so much freedom to define the diversity of its beliefs, resulting in the American Jewish Community being the most diverse and cosmopolitan Jewish community to have ever existed. Is that true? Maybe yes, maybe not. Let me take you on a little historical tour (don't worry, it is not too long)
