Saturday, June 8
9:30am-10:00am
Most Jews in the United States don’t believe in the God of the Bible, yet still consider themselves Jewish. How does this work? Discuss lessons that Humanists of all backgrounds might learn from the overwhelmingly secular Jewish community, about acknowledging the familial and cultural pull toward tradition and history, and the benefits and pitfalls of ethnic and cultural “identity” that continues after secularization. Explore what prevents more Jews from knowing about Humanism and identifying as humanists, even though it aligns with what they already believe.
