Description

May a Jew enter a church or a mosque? Is it permissible to travel a path that leads to a Temple of idolatry? Christianity & Islam: Avoda Zara? The status of a cross. Living in a city which has a temple. Entering a church in order to save one's life. In order to do business. In order to avoid incurring the enmity of the non-Jews. We seek to study the sugya with the Rishonim & poskim. To create a framework for this contemporary and common issue especially for tourists visiting Europe.
