I am not Jewish, but my curiosity was piqued about some aspects of Judaism after having political discussions elsewhere online with Orthodox Jews.

I am particularly interested by the way in which Judaism seems to be at once very open and forward-thinking, while still emphasizing a large number of ancient and complex laws and restrictions.

Is this a suitable forum for such questions? I'm guessing no, because they're not directly related to Jewish law. But I thought I'd ask :)

    Well, just wanted to say that I have asked a couple of questions here as well as a non-jew and always received excellent answers. (Though my questions might have been less abstract than what you seem to be wondering about)
