I like that concept. I happen to be atheistic, but I’ve worked with professors who were of the Jewish faith and helped serve and prepare food in their congregation and I love the people and their generosity. I’ve yet to encounter anyone of the Jewish faith I would call a bad person (but I’m not saying they aren’t out there, there are some in every tenet and faith). Thanks for the clarification!!
Fun fact, you’ll meet plenty of Jews who are atheistic as well. There’s a running joke in the community “ahh yes the time honored Jewish tradition of atheism.”
Without getting too personal, I’m actually agnostic. At least I think that’s the proper term. I don’t wonder if God exists, I wonder if it matters if God exists.
That is funny - “the time honored Jewish tradition of atheism.” X ). I’m actually more agnostic myself, but my atheist friends think I’m just “hedging my bet” by not committing. It isn’t so much that I am on the fence, but rather, that I have always had an unshakable sense that something larger and greater in power (but unknowable to us) IS out there - not sure what to call it, and whether someone calls it god or not, there is a force to be reckoned with that is overarching and shaping the universe, which to me is something that matters.
