45. What Is Humanistic Judaism humanistic judaism is a nontheistic alternative in contemporary Jewish life. There s a lot more to humanistic judaism, of course. http://www.bethchai.org/humanistic.html

What is Humanistic Judaism? Humanistic Judaism is a nontheistic alternative in contemporary Jewish life. The movement was established by Rabbi Sherwin T. Wine in 1963. Humanist Jews affirm that: Human beings possess the power and responsibility to shape their own lives independent of supernatural authority. In other words, not all Humanistic Jews believe in a God: Your own beliefs are up to you. A Jew is a person who identifies with the history, culture, and future of the Jewish people. Judaism is the historic culture of the Jewish people. Jewish history is a human saga, a testament to the significance of human power and human responsibility. Jewish identity is best preserved in a free, pluralistic environment. The freedom and dignity of the Jewish people must go hand in hand with the freedom and dignity of every human being. Humanist Jews have a strong family and community bond. There's a lot more to Humanistic Judaism, of course. We would be happy to answer any questions you have about Beth Chai .

New Mexico Humanistic Judaism Who We Are Events Calendar Newsletter Related Sites ... GuestBook Humanistic Judaism is a voice for Jews who value their Jewish identity and who seek an alternative to conventional Judaism. Humanistic Judaism affirms the right of individuals to shape their own lives independent of supernatural authority. WHAT WE ARE We are a community of people who have joined together to celebrate our Jewish cultural identity and affirm the essential ethical values in Judaism in accordance with our humanistic philosophical principles, which regard human beings as the determing force in our lives, responsible for our own actions, and concerned with welfare of one another. As an affiliate of the Society for Humanistic Judaism, we are part of a worldwide movement for secular and Humanistic Judaism that comprises more than fifty communities in the United States as well as groups in Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay, Britain, France, Belgium, Russia, Israel, and Australia and includes tens of thousands of members. WHAT WE DO We study the history of the Jewish people and the variant forms of their practice of Judaism in order to determine for ourselves how we wish to observe and celebrate the calendar of holidays and life cycle events in ways consistent with our rationalist orientation and our belief in such universal values as freedom, peace, integrity, dignity, creativity, and happiness. We then develop appropriate rituals for our celebrations. In addition, we have informative programs on historical or contemporary cultural, social, or political issues of interest to the members, generally with a Jewish and/or humanistic aspect or connection. Our board of directors meets monthly to determine policy and coordinate the work of the program committee and the ritual and education study groups. All such meetings are open to the entire membership, and the holiday celebrations and topical programs generally are open to the public.

1999-09-03 - Bert Steinberg Interview San Diego Region San Diego S.D. Humanistic Jewish Cong. Humanist leader urges acceptance of 'nontheists' San Diego Jewish Press-Heritage, Sept. 3, 1999: By Donald H. Harrison San Diego, CA (special) Welcoming nontheistic or humanistic Jews to its fold would strengthen rather than weaken the organized Jewish community, according to Bert Steinberg, president of the National Society for Humanistic Judaism. People who have doubts about the existence of God would know they still have a home among the Jewish people and would not need to look for homes elsewhere, Steinberg told HERITAGE during an interview Aug 21 at the offices of the San Diego Humanistic Jewish Congregation. Steinberg, a resident of Lafayette, CA, had been in San Diego in partial fulfillment of his pledge to visit each of the 33 Humanistic Jewish congregations in North America. Additionally, the retirement New York City insurance executive was here to confer with Toby Dorfman, the madrikha (leader) of the San Diego congregation, who will succeed him as president of the national organization. Rabbi Sherwin Wine who had been ordained in the Reform movement founded Humanistic Judaism in 1963 by as a vehicle for people who do not believe in God, but who identify themselves as Jews. In an emotional presentation, Steinberg said he wished

It is a bold statement by those Jews who clearly articulate a belief in the power of humanity and in Jewish identity. - Adam Chalom, SHJ Rabbi We in Adat Chaverim are Humanistic Jews. Humanistic Judaism offers secular Jews a non-theistic philosophy of life that integrates the value of Jewish identity with a belief in the importance of human reason and human power. It declares that reason, rather than faith, is the source of truth, and that human intelligence and experience are capable of guiding our lives. And it offers an opportunity to practice Judaism in ways that are consistent with our humanistic outlook. Humanistic Jews understand Judaism — with its culture, civilization, ethical values — as a

52. The Roots Of Secular Humanistic Judaism By Sherwin T. Wine Over Secular humanistic judaism uses the legacy of their achievements and their Both the Society for humanistic judaism and the Congress of Secular Jewish http://www.shma.com/june00/wine.htm

The Roots of Secular Humanistic Judaism by Sherwin T. Wine Over the last two hundred years, many Jews have been alienated from the traditional religious establishment. Many of them created religious alternatives to Orthodoxy. The Reform, the Conservative, and the Reconstructionist movements are the result of their work. But there were also many alienated Jews who were not comfortable with any religious alternative. They felt intensely Jewish but found no meaning in prayer or in theistic philosophies of life. Even redefining theistic vocabulary did not engage their interest. Like Reform and Conservative Jews, these secular Jews were the products of both the Enlightenment and the Emancipation. They valued reason, despised superstition, and were attracted to the idea of forging a "new" Jewish identity, one that was rooted in the experience and the culture of the past and one that reflected the beliefs and lifestyles of the present. Many of these Jews were attracted to the message and passions of Jewish nationalism. Being Jewish by nationality and not by religion gave them a sense of authenticity and integrity. Both the Yiddishist and Zionist varieties provided a Jewish home for these lovers of Jewish identity. Out of their commitments came language, literature, music, art, dance, theater, and ethical idealism that were both Jewish and secular. Both the revival of Hebrew as a spoken popular language and the establishment of the State of Israel were their creations. In fact, the most successful Jewish movement of the 20th century was Zionism. The culture of that state became the staple of much of Jewish Diaspora education.

53. A Rabbi S Journey To Humanistic Judaism By Peter H. Schweitzer I A Rabbi s Journey to humanistic judaism. by Peter H. Schweitzer. I have often speculated that had I learned Hebrew as a child and then become bar mitzvah, http://www.shma.com/june00/schweitzer.htm

A Rabbi's Journey to Humanistic Judaism by Peter H. Schweitzer I have often speculated that had I learned Hebrew as a child and then become bar mitzvah, I probably would not have undertaken an exploration of my Jewish roots in college (majoring in Judaic studies and becoming a student leader at Hillel), visited Israel to work on an archeological dig, or finally gone on to become a rabbi. Instead, like most of my peers, I would have checked out at age thirteen, or sixteen after confirmation. And, like most of my peers today, I would probably check in only a few times a year or, perhaps, give up affiliation altogether with organized Judaism. As a child, I learned the Sh'ma and the Borchu, Hiney Mah Tov and Ayn Kehloheynu. But I never paid attention to the words. In fact, even after I entered the rabbinate I was concerned more with the choreography of the service than with the content. Only later did I wonder who this God was to whom I was praying, only later did I question the core beliefs of traditional Judaism that I had simply accepted on the authority of inherited doctrine. It was while conducting funeral services as a rabbi that I first began to find inconsistencies between my own beliefs and the prayers. The liturgy of these occasions struck me as naive and dishonest. It offered little comfort with its stiff-upper-lip denial of suffering. In the face of death and tragedy, and certainly after the Holocaust and nuclear devastation, I could not accept God as a shepherd whose rod and staff were supposed to comfort me.
