TopicOrthodox Jews spend $100k a year to hang tiny, invisible wires above Manhattan

I grew up Seventh Day Adventist, which follows many of the same Jewish rules such as no pork, keeping Sabbath holy, etc. The religion even goes further as not to allow jewelry and a bunch of other restrictive stuff.

Over the years, I've seen a shift in SDAs, with some churches becoming looser with the rules and others holding fast to the way things "should" be. The looser churches treat the rules more as guidelines to follow than as actual rules for most things. Sure enough, those churches have a lot of the younger folk in it. Meanwhile, the old school churches only have the old guard, with the majorities of attendees over 40.

The traditional SDA churches constantly criticize the more modern ones, but I think it's out of fear that they'll have to either convert to modern or shut down completely in a few decades.
