  2. $1000 per hit? Do you want me to keep clicking on the link all day?

  3. The shul has a good track record of taking Jews who know gornisht, inspiring them to lead an authentic Torah lifestyle (had to use that phrase). Although there are some long-standing members, most of them are transient, as they mainsteam into the other religious communities in LA or beyond.

  4. Rafi,

    If the NF has to pay me too much, he'll end up hitting me up for a loan.

    As the Rabbi of the Pacific Jewish Center, I must say that $1000 post is highly offensive, wildly inaccurate and shows such a small-minded attitude about Judaism.

    Pathetic.

  7. that was one of the most beautiful depictions of a shul's import and celebration as community event, let alone a religious experience.
