== Kiddush Levanah (moon blessing) ==

Nothing on this?  I know it's a rich subject, filled with controversy.  It is also an example of when Jews do something that they normally wouldn't, just to not be like "pagans": face one way, then turn another "because we don't pray to the moon," and many people make a conscious decision not to do it at all. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:198.203.175.175|198.203.175.175]] ([[User talk:198.203.175.175|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/198.203.175.175|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned -->
:That's not relevant to this article. Kiddush Levanah (more technically ''Birkat HaLevana'') has nothing to do with the Kiddush that delineates the sanctification of holy days. It should probably have it's own article, though. Also, since when is it filled with controversy? It's pretty established in normative [[Orthodox Judaism|Orthodox]] practice, and I've never heard of anyone going out of their way to avoid saying it. --[[User:DLand|DLand]][[User talk:DLand|<sup style="color:green;"><small>TALK</small></sup>]] 21:21, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

In contrast, many went out of their way to say it! There's nothing wrong with it as long as one does not give the impression its the moon that's being prayed to. [[User:Jfdwolff|JFW]]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[[User_talk:Jfdwolff|<small>T@lk</small>]] 00:57, 7 May 2006 (UTC)\
