161. Done. By the way...

Dec 2011

When we recreated all the Groups on DU3, we dropped the word "Group" in the official title of the Group. So, for example, the "Barack Obama Group" became simply "Barack Obama".

When we dropped the "Group" from "Jewish Group" all we had was "Jewish" which didn't feel right. So I changed it to "Judaism". Now, somehow I doubt you want the group to be narrowly religion-focused, so I'm not sure the name is right.

So... I would like your advice. Just go back to calling it the "Jewish Group"? (This is the solution I chose for the Men's Group.) Or stick with "Judaism"? Or call it something else?

Some help would be appreciated. This has been bugging me ever since I made the change.
