Hi
Your story is very interesting...I grew up in a small cult in Wisconsin and they considered themselves Jewish. They were quite like the Haradi, or so I thought. They always said they were the real Jews but now when I went to Israel I find that They are a cult. I went through quite a bit of fighting with myself before I was able to admit the morally horrible things this cult did.
I now live in Israel and consider myself a modern orthodox Jew. They are so accepting and open..but I still am confused as to my identity. I keep telling myself that what I was in was nothing near Jewish..but.....
You, like I, were born into a tenuous situation. Religion can cause as many problems as it's supposed to solve. I think a new teacher will arise to set the record straight.
My family on my father's side is Young Israel which is Modern Orthodox. But I elect to stay in Christianity. That is where I feel most comforable.
