To be honest I find the discussions here in net.religious.jewish to be very dogmatic, I just am not interested in that. I suggest a net called NET.JEWISH which would cover all issues that the religious net does not; such as current event in Israel, american anti-semitism, or maybe being single and jewish... the possibilities are endless. As for Mr. Silbermann's :-) comment that all we would do is talk about is assimilation difficulties...I say BUNK. Is that what you think all jews who do not believe the ways you do want??
