CW: Anti-Judeochristian / Abrahamic
I believe in the Abrahamic god.
I don't believe he is omnipotent.
I don't believe he is loving.
I don't believe he is good.Why?
I read the bible. I looked at what he did, the rules he made. And tbh? If u read that and don't come away horrified, u are brainwashed or terrible too.
"U are just a mortal u just don't understand his plan."
He is a liar god, an abusive god, a rapist god and a murder god. I think I understand his plan all too fking well thx.
He. Is. My. Enemy.
But tbh? I don't hate his followers, mostly. They're also victims of his abuse.

Attendance at the Western Wall to recite “selihot”, or “prayers of penitence”, forty days before Yom Kippur has broken all records once again this year. Among the faithful are many young people not necessarily from Jewish orthodox backgrounds, but are part of a trend that is part religious, part driven by identity.

"Over the centuries, #American #Jews have built a vast religious landscape in which no single institution or orthodoxy can reign supreme or dictate how #Judaism should be practised. Such free market Judaism has produced a panoply of diverse religious #Jewish life, but it has also made collective representation more difficult.
Who ends up speaking on behalf of American Jews when #antisemitism spikes? Who testifies on Capitol Hill before Congress? Who can synthesise the concerns of #Orthodox, #Reform, #Conservative and unaffiliated Jews without pretending their differences don’t exist?
Whether #America ever gets a chief #rabbi again or a universally-accepted council of chief #rabbis may be beside the point. What isn't beside the point is that at a time of disturbing levels of antisemitism and a Jewish community fractured by politics, some kind of unity, however America chooses to build it, has never felt more necessary."

From Kabbalah Experience:
Whether it be the sun or the moon, eclipses fascinate our imagination even if the mystery has long been revealed. The word eclipse has its roots in a sense of abandonment, "failing to appear" which found its way into a sister word, ellipsis, which means "falling short" (geometry) or "trailing off" as in written or spoken....well you know what I mean. We look forward to seeing you this fall to share in the awe of mystery and discover what is hidden in the plain sight of your life.More Info: https://kabbalahexperience.com/product-category/current-semester/

" #Rabbi #ChaimSteinmetz of #CongregationKehilath on the #UpperEastSide has #published “A Proud #Jew,” drawing on his weekly #Torah #essays.
The essays collected in the new volume, his third #book, reference weekly Torah portions, the holidays, Jewish life and contemporary events. Together, they explore what it means to live as a Jew in a complicated world and why #Jewish identity should be a source of strength rather than something to conceal.
The book’s title comes from one of its essays, but as #RabbiSteinmetz writes in the preface, it reflects the message of the entire collection: “Our mission is to carry with pride #Judaism’s message to humanity.”
That message has taken on particular urgency in Rabbi Steinmetz’s work in #NewYork."

JIMENA convened a coalition of 14 leading Sephardic and Mizrahi Jewish organizations to challenge New York Magazine’s Habibi City feature and its exclusionary framing of Middle Eastern, North African, and SWANA identity.
“We are not asking to be tolerated as exceptions to an ideological rule. We are asking to be recognized as what we are: peoples of the region.”

From Harif:
The ‘Arab world’ is a misnomer for a region comprising a rich mosaic of non-Arab and non-Muslim peoples, sects and religions, many of whom predate the Arab conquest and Islam in the Middle East.However, Middle Eastern minorities have suffered a decline due to conflict and persecution. Many have been forced to flee. Demands for autonomy and self-determination have been frustrated.
What is the future for Middle Eastern minorities? To discuss this pressing question, Middle East specialist Jonathan Spyer will chair a distinguished 90-minute panel comprising Kurdish spokesman Veysi Dag, Juliana Taimoorazy, representing Assyrian Christians, and Yusri Khaizran from the Druze community.

Shabbat Shalom Friends 🕯️🕯️
This marks the 51st Shabbat in a row that I have had the privilege of sharing your beautiful photos and messages in response to my weekly Shabbat greeting. Fifty one weeks. Which means next Friday will be one full year, and it will also be the last Shabbat Shalom montage.
I want to sit with that for a moment before I say anything else.
This tradition started on Facebook, and it grew so quietly beautiful that I began sharing it everywhere I am. Not because it needed a bigger audience, but because something this simple deserves to be seen.
What began as a simple post has become one of the most meaningful things I do. Week after week you brought light into this space. Candles on your tables. Family gathered close. Quiet corners of your homes on a Friday evening. Some of you have been here since the very first one, and some of you joined along the way, and every single image made this what it became.
