offlineMemberThe congregation I attend is affiliated Reform. The general practice is more Conservative. Most of the regular attendees lean toward the Modern Orthodox. This is what happens when your options are Chabad or not-Chabad. I like it, because it gives a lot of freedom to question while learning and implementing halacha and nobody looks at you funny for being too frum or not frum enough. It's a very supportive environment with no stone throwing. Luckily, I'm in Alaska, and I'm pretty sure most of you can't throw that far.

I'm not too worried about flying Putins at the moment. I live close to Army and Air Force bases, and they're doing a pretty good job of keeping the fliers out, and we've got the Coast Guard for the floaters.

For those of you who are fans of South Park, I refer to Season 4, Episode 11, titled "Probably"; here, it turns out that the Mormons are the only religion who got it right, so heaven is simply a place up in the cloud filled with Mormons. To cut a long story short, the episode ends with Satan finally getting rid of Saddamn Hussein for good by expelling him to heaven, where he has to spend an eternity with Mormons, and this was the worst form of torture possibly imaginable for him.
I ask you, heaven may be nice, but is it nice enough for us to spend eternity with those who actually followed the rules?

That said, there are some places in Alaska where you can actually see Russia. Where Palin commercial fished is one of them.

offlineMemberTova,
There were a couple of the Tina Fey/Sarah Palin sketches where they quoted Miss Alaska verbatim. That's WHY they were funny! Because you literally can't make that stuff up.
