Dr. Emanuel Rackman
Dr. Emanuel Rackman's focus
article in the May 2 Jewish
News, Who determines who is
religious?", makes telling points:
Dr. Rackman finds it arrogant
to describe oneself as "reli-
gious." Furthermore, the de-
scription is usually based on a
inaccurately narrow view of the
demands of Judaism, as if
Judiasm were all ritual, and not
at all ethical. It seems disre-
spectful to describe oneself as
not religious." Nearly all of us
have some commitments to the
practices or values of the Jewish
tradition. These commitments
deserve to be acknowledged.
The great division between
religious and non-religious Jews
is, according to Dr. Rackman,
based on a deceptive over-
simplification. In reality we are,
all of us Jews, practicing the
different aspects of Judiasm to
different extents.
Dr. Rackman's analysis seems
compelling to me. In fact, I'd
like to push it one step further.
If our self-descrimination as
"religious" or "not-religious" is
improper, how much more so is
it wrong for us to describe
others that way! ...
So the right answer to ques-
tions like: "is Mr. Smith reli-
gious" or "Miss Jones, she's not
religious, is she?" might be to
challenge the question. Some-
times, the question might be
legitimate. It might mean, "Do
you think Miss Jones will mind
being invited to a party that is
not kosher?" or "Should I eat at
Mr. Smith's house if I keep
kosher?" Usually, though, the
question is just an invitation to
idle, unwarranted judgment of
others.
There is a word for that in
Jewish Law. Its Lashon Harah.
Let us respect each other
enough to avoid it.
