Well said indeed. But does not answer my question. Did the people who reported themselves as reform meet the criteria Wendy has described, or were they merely using "reform" as a catch-all phrase to mean halachically not observant. And same question regarding those who reported themselves as "conservative". Wendy's little essay hits a cetain note of truth, but does not answer these questions. One thing I can guarantee: the number of American Jews who are reform in any meaningful way is nowhere near 35 percent.
