Extractions: Orthodox Judaism (Shares some views with Conservative Judaism) Jewish law is unchangeable and binding upon Jews. See also American Judaism Movements/Affiliations Selector Belief in Deity: There exists only one personal God Almighty - Creator, all-powerful, ever-present, and all knowing formless, incorporeal spirit. Incarnations: None, as only God is worshipped. Moses was the greatest of all prophets. Origins of universe/life: They hold to the book of Genesis literally, that God created the universe/life from nothing, in less than 7 days, less than 10,000 years ago; Adam and Eve were the first humans. But, some hold that a day in the bible is not defined as 24 hours, and some believe that scientific discoveries dont contradict but they attest to Gods awesome power. After death: Traditional Judaism believes in the World to Come, the coming of the messianic age heralded by the Messiah, and a resurrection of the dead, but beliefs vary on the details. Some believe souls of the righteous go to heaven immediately, or that souls are reincarnated until they become righteous on earth, or that the wicked suffer from a hell of their own making, or that the unrighteous remain dead. Some believe God will resurrect the righteous to live on earth after the Messiah comes to purify the world. Judaism generally focuses on strictly following Gods commandments rather than on details of afterlife or rewards after death.
BBC News | ISRAEL TODAY | Secularism Vs Orthodox Judaism
Wednesday, 22 April, 1998, 1813 GMT 1913 UK Secularism vs OrthodoxJudaism By Jonathan Marcus All is not well in the Jewish state
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/events/israel_at_50/israel_today/newsid_81000/8

Extractions: By Jonathan Marcus All is not well in the Jewish state 50 years after its creation. Intended to protect the Jewish people from external attack, Israel is itself a house divided. And quite apart from differences over the peace process or economic policy, one fundamental fault line is threatening to split Israeli society into two: that between the ultra-orthodox Jewish religious constituency on the one hand and the secular majority on the other. As so often such short-hand terms obscure a multitude of degrees and shades of opinion. Many religious Israelis are tolerant of their less-religious fellow citizens. And only the most extreme in the secular camp want to remove all Jewish traces from the affairs of state. But how Jewish should Israel as a country be? It is a debate that goes way beyond issues like civil marriage. In Israel there is no civil marriage as such - each religious denomination oversees its own ceremonies and procedures - which are then recognised by the state. But the Jewishness of Israel is a complex issue. There is, for example, a significant non-Jewish minority. The only strand of Judaism recognized by the state - orthodox religious expression - is not the dominant strand in much of the Jewish diaspora, which inevitably provokes tensions.

The Hebrew term "haredi" means "fearful" [of God Their dress includes beards, head coverings, and dark colors for men and skirts and long sleeves for women. Ultra-Orthodox Jews consider their belief system and religious practices to extend in an unbroken chain back to Moses and the giving of the Torah on Mount Sinai. As a result, they often have a complicated relationship with other Jewish denominations, which they consider to be unjustifiable deviations of Judaism. Most historians claim, however, that the ultra-Orthodox are a relatively modern group, dating back to

Orthodox Judaism - now there's a funny term for you, because "orthodox" is a word of Greek origin. For this reason, some Orthodox Jews prefer to call themselves Torah Jews, or observant Jews, or shomrei mitzvot (keepers of commandments), or frum (which is at least a Yiddish word). And while Orthodoxy is not a movement in the same sense as the Reform Conservative , or Reconstructionist movements - it doesn't have one central rabbinical seminary, synagogue organization, or rabbinical group, but many - in some ways, it is more of a movement than the others. That is, in the post-war years, and that war would be the second World War, Orthodoxy has grown both in numbers and intensity in America. The books shown below include books of Orthodox Jewish theology and practice, histories of Orthodox Judaism, books on newly observant Orthodox Jews, and others.

Extractions: Many people think this page is incongruous. After all, who ever heard of an Orthodox Jewish Transexual? Well, beleive it or not there are several. As an Orthodox Jew and the partner of an Orthodox Jewish transexual I feel the need to make the need to raise the awareness of other Jews of this issue. In the case of the MTF transexual there are a number of halachot making life even more difficult than it already is. You will find a few articles on Jewish Law and Transexuality here, as well as a link to a list specifically designed for Orthodox Jewish transexuals. I am always looking for more information on the subject and I encourage anyone interested in the subject matter to write to me. I also encourage Rabbis who actually have looked into the law on the subject to write to me. I am not interested in posting opinions of Rabbis without research behind them but I will consider posting well researched pieces that do not necessarily agree with my opinion on the subject. In terms of community, I know of no community specifically for Orthodox transexuals. There is an email list for Orthodox transexuals called Dina. Go to the

Sudden Changes: Is Orthodox Judaism Driving Our Family Apart?
Part One For the Parents. Is orthodox judaism Driving Our Family Apart? A fatheremailed me once to complain that orthodox judaism made him lose his children.
http://www.beingjewish.com/family/sudden.html

Extractions: before reading the Torah on this web site. Sudden Changes Part One: For the Parents Is Orthodox Judaism Driving Our Family Apart? Your daughter looks very different today. Your son speaks differently. They have become aliens from outer space. What in the world is happening to them? Are you going to lose them entirely? What does it mean to your home when your children become baalai tshuvah There is a growing movement in the world today, that we call the Baal Tshuvah Movement. It is not an organized movement, but its ranks continue to overflow in overwhelming numbers. A baal tshuvah (or baalas tshuvah , for women) is a formerly non-religious Jew who has chosen to become Orthodox. Surprisingly enough, this is not creating the social turbulence you would expect such a large movement to cause. Nevertheless, there are difficult moments in store for everyone. When any person in a relationship undergoes sudden changes, the relationship will inevitably also change. And it is simply to be expected that the other partner(s) in the relationship will view the changes with some degree of anxiety. Most especially when a parent sees a child changing. Parents (healthy parents, at least) will always worry about their children, and that's only right.
Orthodox And Non-Orthodox Judaism: How To Square The Circle

http://www.jcpa.org/dje/articles2/orth-nonorth.htm

Extractions: How to Square the Circle Once again, Israel and the Jewish people have won a momentary respite from a head-on confrontation over religious issues that could lead to a split in the Jewish people. Finance Minister, Yaakov Neeman, his committee, and the parties involved have gone back to the negotiation table, if not to the drawing board, for three more months to try to bring about what in effect is a squaring of the circle of Judaism: the development of operational ways to maintain Jewish religious unity in the face of the confrontation of two binary opposite perspectives. At the root of the problem is the fact that both the Israeli Orthodox establishment and the American Conservative and Reform movements are right from their respective perspectives. Worse than that, an objective observer would probably also have to agree that both are right, at least in some ways. For American non-Orthodox Jews, who are the vast majority in the United States (the number of American Jews who identify with Orthodoxy at a maximum is 10 percent, whereas something like 75 percent identify with the various non-Orthodox movements) see Judaism from an American religious perspective that has been shaped by the experience Protestant as a matter of personal spirituality and belief first and foremost, which means that Jews must begin by personally accepting the fundamental beliefs and traditions of Judaism in some way but then are free to apply them operationally in ways that they find meaningful and satisfying. True, Conservative Judaism accepts the existence of the edifice of Torah and halakhah but understands Torah more as a constitution than as a detailed code, a constitution which can and must be reinterpreted in every age according to its spirit and not merely according to the plain meaning of the text or something close to it.

http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Judaism/Branches_of_Orthodox_Judaism

Extractions: Branches of Orthodox Judaism "Traditional" can be either a synonym for Orthodox (especially when using the dichotomy Traditional/Liberal), or a synonym for "Conservadox." In Israel, "Traditional" is equated with the MASORTI. "Centrist/modern/cosmopolitan" (colloquially [sometimes pejorative, sometimes affectionate] kipa sruga [crocheted skull cap]). Adherents usually approve many aspects of secular culture, especially secular education, in addition to traditional Torah study. They tend to be Zionists . The precise term depends on the speaker-Rabbi Norman Lamm uses "centrist," Rabbi Shlomo Riskin uses "cosmopolitan" and Rabbi Emmanuel Rackman uses "modern." The Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations, Yeshiva University, and the Rabbinical Council of America in some sense represent this group. In Israel, the Mizrachi organization is a wellknown representative. "Yeshivish" (colloquially, [sometimes pejorative, sometimes affectionate] "black hat" or "black") suggests an Orthodox outlook in which the focus of life is Torah study, as is done in Lithuanianstyle yeshivot. Secular culture is either tolerated or criticized for its corrupting influences. This group tends to be "nonZionist" in the sense that they love the land of Israel and its holiness (many spend years in Israel for Torah study), but are unenthusiastic about secular Zionism and Israeli secular culture. Agudath Israel tends to represent this group.
S.C.J. FAQ: Section 2.4. Who We Are: What Is Orthodox Judaism?
Question 2.4 What is orthodox judaism? orthodox judaism believes that both the Writtenand Oral Torah are of divine origin, and represent the word of Gd * .
http://www.shamash.org/lists/scj-faq/HTML/faq/02-04.html

Extractions: What is Orthodox Judaism? Orthodox Judaism is not a unified movement with a single governing body, but rather many different movements adhering to common principles. All of the Orthodox movements are very similar in their observance and beliefs, differing only in the details that are emphasized. They also differ in their attitudes toward modern culture and the state of Israel. They all share one key feature: a dedication to Torah, both Written and Oral. Historically, there was no such thing as Orthodoxy; in fact, you find the particular term is used primarily in North America (elsewhere, the distinction is primarily between "more observant" and "less observant"). The specific term "Orthodox Judaism" is of rather recent origin and is used more as a generic term to differentiate the movements following traditional practices from the Liberal Jewish movements. Orthodox Judaism views itself as the continuation of the beliefs and practices of normative Judaism, as accepted by the Jewish nation at Mt. Sinai and codified in successive generations in an ongoing process that continues to this day.
