What I love about progressive Judaism(Saying the same thing in lots of different ways)I can listen to my conscience and reason and absorb the latest scientific findings, while remaining a believing Jew.I don’t have to indulge in “the willing suspension of disbelief”.I don’t have to carry around two sets of contradictory or irreconcilable beliefs in my head.I don’t have to brainwash myself, or my child. I can freely embrace or question.I’m not afraid of ideas, knowledge, philosophy, wisdom, science or others’ beliefs.I’m not afraid of questioning, or being questioned.I can embrace both my heritage and the modern world.I have no mental reservations about what I’m expected to believe, in the way that many nominally Orthodox people I know have. http://amplify.com/u/fi9w
