Julie Burchill: ‘Between a shul and a hard place’

December 30, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Julie Burchill writes:

Unlike many gentiles who are attracted to Judaism, it isn’t the “culture” I like. I detest bagels and Woody Allen. I loathe “Jewish humour”. I don’t think family is the most important thing in life. For me, it was always about two things; Israel, and Judaism, the religion. (Conversely – or perversely – all my Israeli friends are non-believers.)
