I'm not Jewish so I wasn't wondering about that.
However, the sequencing of Yom Kippur AFTER Rosh Hashanah puzzles me. I'm still wondering about it.
P.S. Although I'm not Jewish, I do celebrate Yom Kippur for another reason. Years ago, I had a near death experience and was in an "irreversible coma" for 3 days before having a miraculous "symptom free" instantaneous recovery. The day I came out of the coma was Yom Kippur. (In addition, I had an awesome mystical near-death experience, but that's a story for another time.)
