I'm not sure I'm the person you're looking for, but I'm mostly unobservant and politically progressive if not at all active, except for voting. I grew up in a Reform Jewish home that I guess I'd call middling observant (not kosher, but religious and Hebrew school, Friday night services maybe once a month, but holiday observances in the home).

And I'm not fasting or going to services, either. However, I am about to leave for a monthly get-together of local spinners, so I'll be gone for a few hours after posting this.

These days, I mostly describe myself as an agnostic-to-atheist Jew. I have no intention of giving up my Jewish identity, but I don't actually do much about it. I know my parents were disappointed that I no longer belonged to a synagogue, but they stopped asking after a while.

In some ways, my issues are made much simpler by the fact that I don't have children. That avoids a whole lot of complicated decisions.

And I have to get going, so I'll post this now. Maybe more thinky thoughts later.
