Here is What Judaism Needs


So a short 7 hour train ride from Delhi through rural India deposited us at Amritsar where we have come to see the Golden Temple, the holiest sight for the Sikh religion. And the Golden Temple doesn’t disappoint. It is an impressive three-story temple covered in gold leaf, surrounded by a lake with thousands of pilgrims coming every day to see their holy book. As a Jew, I have to say that we could use a holy site like this. The western wall may be laden with history but it isn’t really much to look at. If we could just build a similarly impressive edifice then we will be all set for someone to knock it down.
