Actually, what you described is pretty much how a normal Judaic study session goes even amongst believers of the faith. A Rabbi would be the first to welcome you to the discussion, no matter what your beliefs. It's encouraged to question, and even debate the material, as there is no one real definitive answer to anything. The Passover service, for example, is made up mainly of comparisons from theories of all the major Rabbincal thinkers.
I personally would much rather attend a study session with other Jews, but chances are I'd feel just as alien and out of place at Rorschach's group as I would with a bunch of Reconstructionists, or even Orthodox Jews. It's a really individual, regional, and family kind of tradition.
There's a computer at the birthplace of Christ that will tell you wether or not you're Jewish.... and um...go figure, that thing seems to think EVERYONE is a Jew. The religion is inclusive that way.
Vince can't possibly think Theology classes should involve segregation.
