"Do you feel Judaism is archaic? That it is out of date?"
Judaism can be a mixed bag -- with practices ranging from what some might consider archaic, to those that reflect modern-day values of equality and inclusion.
"There is something reassuring about the Old Testament."
As a child, I loved the drama of the story of Passover and the escape from Egypt (Prince of Egypt is one of my favorite animated movies). But when I grew older and read a few other things in the Bible, I wasn't so enamored of it anymore. :(
For reassurance, I'd much rather read a short story by Sholem Aleichem, or Isaac Bashevis Singer. :)
