- vxNsr 5y agoGoing to Hebrew school doesn’t make one orthodox.
- benchaney 5y agoFair enough, although not everyone who went to Hebrew school keeps Shabbat. I will say, for the sake of combating misinformation about Judaism, that people who keep Shabbat traditionally, but also use voice activated technology on Shabbat are extremely rare, if they exist at all. I have never heard of someone who actually adheres to this practice despite living in a community that is on the extreme liberal end of Shabbat observant Jews[0]. [0] Which is where you would expect this to happen if it actually did.
