other Jews?
Richard,
In my former life as a "Messianic Jew" in NY I did wear a kippah and was
observant and this quite frankly was just a curiosity to the observant,
orthodox or chassidic but more offensive to the less observant. Of course
there were those in the orthodox camp that would have reacted harshly but
its curious that those with a much stronger Jewish identity other than
just cultural were more threatened. My limited experience would seem to
bear this out.
Shalom,
Ken
