The major Jewish dietary laws rest on a single premise: Eating meat is a moral compromise. There is a difference between eating a hamburger and eating a bowl of cereal. For one of them, a living creature had to be killed. Should we ever become so casual about the eating of meat that we lose sight of that distinction, a part of our humanity will have shriveled and died.

Rabbi Harold Kushner

Lieba Schwartz

I believe in Christianity, Judaism and Islamism, but I stay away from churches, synagogues and mosques.

Ted Lange

I believe he was able to soothe her. She actually became more devoted to Judaism ... and more comfortable, and also the pain in her eased.

Berthold Auerbach

Because then they can now go out and party and celebrate the joy of Judaism.

Tom Cohen

This is a series on cultural impact, ... I'm not writing an introduction to Judaism, or even the Bible.

Thomas Cahill

This is an academic program, not a Jewish or Israeli lobbying group, ... We will teach Judaism as a culture and as a history.

Dwayne Carpenter

It seems to me that Islam and Christianity and Judaism all have the same god, and he's telling them all different things.
