Humanistic Judaism
Humanistic Judaism is a non-theistic approach to Jewish identity and culture that emphasizes human reason, ethics, and the importance of human experience. It celebrates Jewish history, traditions, and values while rejecting the belief in a supernatural deity. This movement encourages individuals to find meaning and purpose through their own experiences and connections to the Jewish community.
Founded in the 1960s by Rabbi Sherwin Wine, Humanistic Judaism promotes a secular perspective on Jewish life. It offers rituals and celebrations that reflect Jewish heritage, allowing individuals to engage with their culture in a way that aligns with their personal beliefs and values.
