" All of us come from radically different backgrounds but we share the belief that Judaism should no longer be defined solely through Zionism. " Butt Head seeks to "Pimp" his book. Yo Butt Head, what do you know about Torah spirituality?! Your just a reform Jew who ignores the 65% assimilation of galut American and european Jewry! Traditional Rabbinic Judaism has its problems. It rejected Zionism because the Secularism of europe which rejected the Church as both corrupt and abusive, Rabbinic Judaism fear that the Secular Jews would view Torah Judaism in the same light. This tragic error of self confidence has produced a terrible division between secular zionists and traditional Jews. Galut Jews don't know how far secular zionists and traditional Jews have come to realize that we as a people share a common alliance! As a traditional Jew I live in Be'er Sheva, we as a people share the joys and sorrows of life together. If my daughter married a secular Israeli I'd dance at the wedding, not so a reform Jew from galut! I happily enter a secular Israelis house, eat bread with them and drink their wine. A galut reform Jew, their bread has the din of goyish bread, their wine, the din of forbidden wine! Reform galut jews do not require a get to get divorced because they have no kedushin when they marry.
