Judaism Without Tribalism: A Guide to Being a Blessing to All the Peoples of the Earth - Paperback

by Rami Shapiro (Author), Douglas Rushkoff (Foreword by)

"Judaism Without Tribalism is a blessing, a much-needed challenge, and a deep well of wisdom and sanity." -Natalie Goldberg, author of Writing Down the Bones

This book investigates Judaism at its best--and sanest. It strips away outdated and harmful beliefs that have accrued over the centuries and returns to the essential truths that are too-often ignored in favor of tradition, tribal identity, or the claims of the powerful.The result is a vibrant Judaism for the 21st century and beyond--a Judaism that draws deeply from history and scripture yet addresses the unmet needs of the present and the future. It is a Judaism that is open and accessible to everyone.Judaism without tribalism is a call to be a light unto the nations, and a blessing to all the people of the earth. It is a Judaism free from legalism and tribalism--a Judaism that refuses to serve patriarchy and power.Written by one of today's most respected--and most unconventional--Jewish thinkers, Judaism Without Tribalism is a manifesto, an invitation to completeness, and a call for inner and outer spiritual revolution. It is also a deeply practical guide to living authentically, breath by breath and day by day.
