Rabbi Eric Yoffie, president of the liberal Union for Reform Judaism, said "religious right" leaders believe "unless you attend my church, accept my God and study my sacred text you cannot be a moral person." Many Reform Jews believe the same, only their sacred texts lean more toward the works of Karl Marx. To them, you cannot oppose socialism and be a moral person.

Reform Judaism is a joke. It is so liberal that its safe to say its beliefs are secular liberalism with some Yiddishkeit flavor thrown in. I can't think of anything that makes it authentically Jewish.

Yep. Jerk. He's giving the rest of us Jews a bad name. Something tells me he's a little light on the faith and a little heavy on the politics. And not the kind that would be in tandem with his faith either.

Rabbi Daniel Lapin had the best explanation for this that I've ever read, and it was posted in a thread here...
