Being a Jew doesn't have to do with what you believe in. According to Judaism 101,"A person born to non-Jewish parents who has not undergone the formal process of conversion but who believes everything that Orthodox Jews believe and observes every law and custom of Judaism is still a non-Jew, even in the eyes of the most liberal movements of Judaism, and a person born to a Jewish mother who is an atheist and never practices the Jewish religion is still a Jew."]]> 2017-08-31 15:46:34 UTC https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/183990807 sukheram https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/183992275 Mammoon Sukhera

Their obligations are no less important than man.

According to most Jewish scholars "man" was created with dual genders and later was separated into male and female.]]> 2017-08-31 15:53:23 UTC https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/183993973 athomson2020 https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/183994890 Women are endowed with a greater degree of "binah" or intelligence, understanding, and intuition, than men.

Many of the important feminist leaders of the 20th Century, like Gloria Steinem and Betty Friedman, are Jewish women.

(Gentiles are non-Jewish people) The most commonly used word for a non-Jew is goy. The word "goy" means "nation," and refers to the fact that goyim are members of other nations, that is, nations other than the Children of Israel. 
Jews did not judge non-Jews by their nationality or by their ethnicity but by their behavior. ]]> 2017-08-31 15:57:15 UTC https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/183995447 athomson2020 https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/183995914 It has been said that matriarchs were superior to patriarchs.

In the house, the wife/mother is called "akeret habayit" in Hebrew, or mainstay. She largely determines the homes character and atmosphere.

The Gentiles were and are the ones influencing their own reflection of how the Jews see them.
Over time Jews were a major target for other kinds of people. For example, WW2 was about Nazi Germany executing the Jews but also other types of people. The Jews were blamed for many problems that had nothing to do with them. This, however, was just one example of the Jewish people being hunted down for their religion. ]]> 2017-09-01 15:17:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/184229802 longhair325 https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/184234108 Jews actually have terms they use for non-Jews and are used in negative ways. Some insulting terms for non-Jews are shiksa (feminine) and shkutz (masculine). These words are derived from the Hebrew root Shin-Qof-Tzadei, meaning loathsome or abomination. The word shiksa is most commonly used to refer to a non-Jewish woman who is dating or married to a Jewish man, which should give some indication of how strongly Jews are opposed to the idea of intermarriage. The term shkutz is most commonly used to refer to an anti-Semitic man. Both terms can be used in a less serious, more joking way, but in general they should be used with caution. ]]> 2017-09-01 15:31:00 UTC https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/184234108 sukheram https://padlet.com/sukheram/Jewishpeople/wish/184589604 Moses, Aaron, and Miriam were the leaders of the Children of Israel during important times of Jewish history including the Exodus from Egypt and the 40 years before the Jewish people found the Promised Land.
