What Do You Believe About God?

At Services this Shabbat evening,
A discussion on:
What do You Believe about God
And Why it  Matters

At a Friday evening service in April we had a lively discussion on the question of whether or not Jews must, or should, believe in God.  That was followed up by a poll on the question that was put here on Our Blog.  You can vote in the poll and/or see the results here.  In the most recent edition of Reform Judaism, an article appeared entitled: “The God Survey.”  Mark Dov Shapiro, the author, offered an analysis of the sometimes surprising results of a similar survey that he sent to his congregation.  I will be using the article as a basis for discussion this Friday evening.  You can read Rabbi Shapiro's very interesting article on the internet here.  Copies of the article will also be available at services.

Wishing you a Shabbat Shalom,
Rabbi John
