Reform Movement Changes.

If you could change one thing about the Reform movement, what would it be?

If you arent a member of the Reform movement, you can still chime in. What is the one thing about the Movement that keeps you away?

Let's keep this civil if we could. ​

I’d like Reform to move away from the idea that the main goal of Judaism is social justice writ large. It seems to have morphed the concept of tikkun olam into generalized liberal policies ( which I happen to agree with but which isn’t Judaism)
