Rabbinical college's website aims to involve more young Jews in religious life

The Reconstructionist Rabbinical College in suburban Philadelphia launched MostJewish.com as a way to connect with young Jews who are less likely to join synagogues, The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Mostjewish.com includes a game, a blog, a top-10 list, and special features designed to engage Jews in a fun way that can lead to more thoughtful discussion of what it means to be Jewish in the 21st century.

The game on the home page serves as a fun way to get into the site. It asks visitors to answer a question and then comment. For Passover, which commemorates the Israelites' freedom from slavery, the question is about favorite things related to the holiday.

But for the rest of the year, the query asks visitors to click on the term that's most Jewish. Multiple-choice alternatives might be potato knishes, the New York Times, or Linda Richman's expression "Talk amongst yourselves" from Saturday Night Live.
