What's a hassidic (spelling?) jew? Funny how most non-jewish americans know so little about jews.

Hasidic Jews are just one branch of the most Orthodox of Jews. They are the ones you usually see wearing all black outfits (hence, they are sometimes called the "Black-hats".)

As in, Jews for Jesus is one of the more popular churches of the Messianic Jew movement.

The Messianic Jews are not Religious Jews. They are, though, ethnic Jews who believe Christ is lord and saviour blah blah blah.

They're entitled, but I just call them Christians who were born Jewish. Sad.

there are certainly as many, but they're less formal distinctions. An Orthodox synagogue and a Reform synagogue will have, to a large degree, the same service. The difference is mostly in the degree to which they follow the laws.

Messianic Jews are not really jews to most "jewish" jews.

The ones who cross the street when they see you coming, and cross back after you've passed.

One time me and my friend got hammered, and drover through Boro Park (heavily hassidic jewish neighboorhood) spashing water on the hassics and screaming "the power of christ compells you". I'm not proud, it wasn't my idea, but it seemed like a good one after several irish carbombs.

Sorry to hijack.

One could make the arguement that the Lubavitchers are Messianic Jews, although this is not a traditional argument. They just have a different Messiah.

[/ QUOTE ]
I've heard that argument before and I can see some truth to it. But the big difference is they don't worship "The Rebbe" but rather think of him as a messiah.
