1. Judaism. It's Judaism.

2. Some of us write G-d because in Judaism, we are not to write or say G-d's holy Names in order to make sure they are never taken in vain. Some take it a step further and do not write out the word G-d, for although it is not one of G-d's names it's just an extra precaution.

3. When you say Harem I think you mean HaShem. HaShem literally translates to "the name" and refers to G-d. HaShem does not have parents for He is G-d. In a figurative sense, we are all HaShem's children--but He has no physical son or daughter.

4. Judaism is a way to get closer to HaShem but it's not necessarily the way to get more rewards after. We believe that everyone has a right to Paradise after death, but we believe you don't have to be Jewish in order to get to Paradise. People are discouraged to convert because of that belief: the belief that not everyone has to be Jewish to get to heaven. Judaism is not only a religion, it's a way of life, and not always an easy one. There are 613 laws to follow instead of just 7. Before converting someone, we make sure that the person is absolutely sure they want to convert because once you're a Jew, there is no turning back.

5. We have two sets of dishes for cooking and eating because of the prohibition in the Torah of boiling a kid in it's mothers milk, which later came to be known as not mixing meat and dairy. One set is for meat dishes, one is for dairy dishes. After meat we are not allowed to eat dairy for 6 (some Jews wait only 3) hours because when you eat meat, some of the stuff may get stuck in your teeth since your saliva doesn't break down proteins. So if you were to eat dairy directly after eating meat, the two would mix and you'd break the law.

6. The Sabbath is a holiday G-d gave to the Jews and commanded them to keep. It begins 18 minutes before sunset on Friday and ends about an hour after sunset on Saturday. On Shabbat (the Sabbath) we are not allowed to do any "work" and there are 39 categories of work. There are 39 categories because when work was being defined, it was thought that all the things that were done to build the Ark of the Covenant were considered work. So we are not allowed to light fires (no electricity) to carry things outside our houses, walk outside city limits, drive cars, etc. That is why people have to make sure their pockets are emtpy when they go outside, so they will not break the law of carrying.

7. The Seven Laws of Noah are:

1. Do not murder.
2. Do not steal.
3. Do not worship false gods.
4. Do not be sexually immoral.
5. Do not eat a limb removed from a live animal.
6. Do not curse God.
7. Set up courts and bring offenders to justice.

Peace Shalom Salaam

Its Hash-m not Harem. Hash-m is another way of saying G-d. Where not allowed to spell out G-ds name thats why there are dashes.

then why are ppl discouraged to convert to Jewish by the Orthodox Rabbi?-- Judisum don't believe in converts so your suppost to go out of your way to make people not want to

"Why do Jewish have o have two pots for cooking. After meat are they not allowed for six hours to eat any dairy products ? Why is that?" Its part of the laws of kosher

"What is a Sabbath nd why do ppl have to be empty pockets when attending?" Its litteraly the day of rest. One of the laws is your not alowed to carry in a public place of Shabbos.

first just as a suggestion its called Judaism.

secondly are you referring to Haradim or Hasidim?

Some Jews write G-d instead of God because of the rule that one must not erase the name of God, as a custom that has been expanded to the way people write the word God in other languages. G-d is written so their is no fear that God's name will be erased if the text is destroyed.

people are discuraged to convert because Judaism only wants genuine converts, also it is not nessicary for one to be Jewish inorder to recive reward or be a good person.


the two pots is because of the biblical Prohibition of cooking meat and milk, so observant Jews have two sets of pots, one for milk and one for meat.

in the same vein the custom to wait after eating meat, so it will not be consumed at the same time.

the empting of the pockets is because its a biblical proabition to carry any objects in a public domain durring the sabbath.

here are the seven commandments of noah

I would suggest reading the first few books of the Old Testament in the Bible and/or talking to an actual Jewish person for these answers, I can't remember off the top of my head.
