| | Children of Israel |
| | The appeal to Jewish nationhood is necessary when we consider Israel’s insistence on remaining a “Jewish state.” By “Jewish state” Israelis mean, of course, “national Jewish state,” not “religious Jewish state” — theocratic states (like Pakistan and Iran) are incompatible with modern standards of democracy and pluralism. | | | Anti-Zionist racists use this anti-theocracy argument repeatedly to delegitimize Israel, and I have found our students unable to defend their position with conventional ideology that views Jewishness as a religion. | | | And it seems to me that Israel has less to be ashamed of than Britain. |

| | Ford Foundation Report |
| | The Religion, Society and Culture program seeks to enhance understanding of religious pluralism--the diversity of views and values within and across religions. | | | The foundation also supports the work of Leila Ahmed, a professor of women's studies at Harvard Divinity School, who is analyzing and mapping changes in Muslim women's theological perspectives, institutional status and roles in Islam as it becomes an American religious tradition. | | | In fact, one of the most powerful entry points to a discourse about human rights in Islamic society is to invoke the Koranic imperative for social justice and say: Here is a pragmatic, sustainable way to achieve it in the modern context. |

| | Commentary Magazine - A Coat of Many Colors, edited by Abraham D. Lavender |
| | ...According to Lavender, while the Jew shares the Southerner's Protestant ethic-the virtues of thrift, hard work, and individual advancement-he generally rejects his religious fundamentalism and aggressive regionalism, and tends not to share the white Southerner's racist views... | | | ...WHILE Lavender's volume includes a number of selections on Jewish blacks and on the Sephardic Jews who have come to the United States in the 20th century, these groups are not as controversial and do not affect the Jewish community as pervasively as another "minority" movement, women's lib... | | | IT IS an operating assumption of the "new pluralism" that there is greater heterogeneity in American life than was once believed by academic sociologists and social planners alike. |

| | For example, philosophers/ theologians Augustine, Aquinas, and Anselm are featured along with succinct presentations of some of their beliefs, such as their arguments for the existence of God, their views on man, faith and reason, and truth. | | | Moreover, Geisler defends the Christian Faith against opposing theologies such as Islam, New Age, the Jesus Seminar, and religious pluralism. | | | Also, Geisler has included and answered other non-atheistic philosophers and theologians such as the "prophet" Nostradamus, the founder of Islam, Muhammad, Finite Godist William James, Universalist John Hick, and Jewish theologian, Martin Buber. |

| | Academic Research Papers JUDEO-CHRISTIAN RELIGION |
| | A chapter-by-chapter summary of the 1981 book, with its discussions of such things as the role of religion in group behavior and individual lives, religious pluralism in America, non-traditional religions, the role of ethnic and class factors, and more. | | | It is argued that the author's use of survey evidence is convincing, and her views on the need for an open-minded perspective and on the "postpatriarchal future of religion" are also discussed. | | | In particular, he was able to win over a large number of Gentiles because he emphasized faith as the basis for salvation, and he did not insist on the need for them to change their lifestyles in accordance with Jewish traditions. |
