Ask the Rabbi
Question
My question is regarding attendance of Jewish ceremonies. I hope it doesnโt make my question any less important if Iโm not Jewish - it relates to showing respect to Jewish culture. Basically, I feel uncomfortable to use a kippah since I donโt want to pretend what Iโm not, but I also donโt want to offend people by not observing the custom. As I understand "any head covering would do", so I was wondering if it would be ok so customize the design I would put on my kippah, but not so to be offensive either. Maybe I can send you a photo of the design to hear if you would approve.
Answer
You don't need to wear a Kippa, but as you said you don't want to offend anyone and some people will mistakenly think that you should wear a head covering so it is just an idea of the right tact. You can wear any head covering.
