What are the differences between Orthodox Judaism and Reform Judaism?

In: Judaism [Edit categories]

Answer:

Reform is more liberal and gender-sensitive and they like to do some holidays and stuff, but Orthodox Judaism is more according to the Torah. Like, they keep the Sabbath, they go to shul every day of the week. Everything has to go with the Jewish law! Reform people are NOT fanatical like that. Thanks!
