- Why equality matters to us | Aaron Goldstein
Liberal Judaism looks forward to celebrating civil partnerships under its roofs. We hope that other religions follow suitIn 2005, the rabbinic conference of Liberal Judaism published Covenant of Love, a service of commitment for same-sex couples, and in doing so became the first religious movement in the country to produce official liturgy for this purpose. The same-sex commitment ceremony affirms the importance and holiness of marriage and Jewish family life. We remain steadfastly committed to the justice of civil partnerships and we see this as an extension of our belief that all are equal and created b'tselem Elohim – in the image of God. Our rabbis have long acknowledged that modern ethical, psychological and scientific insight demands a change in traditional attitudes to same-sex relationships, and have welcomed lesbians and gay men as members of its congregations, as teachers and as rabbis. We truly celebrate this inclusion and with it the enrichment that it brings to our community.Liberal Judaism's engagement in such ceremonies is not forced on our rabbis or congregations. Our rabbis have simply created the possibility for an affirmation of the sanctity of a loving and committed same-sex relationship within the bounds of Judaism. Neither do we seek to enforce our beliefs and practices on any other religious denomination, Jewish or otherwise. However, we have seen that our courage in making such blessings possible has emboldened other religious movements and individuals to follow suit, albeit timidly at times.Likewise, the amendment to the equality bill, proposed by Lord Alli, does not seek to force any organisation or individual to do anything in respect of civil partnerships. It merely allows those who wish to do so to open the doors – literally – to their house リベラルなユダヤ進む市民のパートナーシップを祝うため、その屋根の下に見えます
- Israeli settlers celebrate amid Hebron tensions
The settlers sang, danced and drank themselves into a stupor, ignoring the growing outrage of the Palestinians who make up the vast majority of this West Bank town.As they do every year on the Jewish holiday of Purim, the settlers donned costumes -- one was a clown, another a Palestinian -- and drank and danced to celebrate a biblical miracle that saved the Jews from the ancient Persians. 入植者、踊り歌い、昏迷状態に身を飲んで、パレスチナ人はヨルダン川西岸地区の広大な大部分を占めるの成長の怒りを無視してプリム祭のユダヤ教の祝日でもない、毎年town.As、入植者の衣装を着用 - 1別のパレスチナ自治政府 - と飲んで、踊りには、古代ペルシアからのユダヤ人が保存され聖書の奇跡を祝うためには、ピエロだった
- Commitment we should encourage | Richard Harries
It is promiscuity that is undermining marriage in modern society; civil partnerships do exactly the oppositeThe majority of those who enter into a civil partnership do so with the same sense of commitment as those who get married, sometimes, as events prove, with a rather greater commitment in reality. As with a wedding, they usually wish to surround the ceremony with celebration. Those with a religious faith see it as one of the most solemn and sacred moments in the living out of their faith, and not surprisingly, wish to set it in a religious context with a religious blessing.At the moment those who wish such a blessing must arrange it after the legal ceremony, which cannot take place on religious premises, and if the legalities and the blessing are on the same secular premises, the registrar must have left before the religious service can begin. But three faith communities, the Quakers, Liberal Jews and Unitarians, want the freedom to set the legal ceremony itself in a religious context. They wish to hold it in a meeting house, synagogue or church and surround it with appropriate prayers. For them, as for the couples concerned, the bringing about of such a partnership is not a mere legality, it is a solemn and serious commitment undertaken in faith before God, which they wish to perform in a place of worship. That is why Lord Alli has been so passionate about his amendment to the equalities bill now going through parliament, which would allow this.Some Church of England bishops, who were hardly enthusiastic about civil partnerships in the first place, fear that if this is allowed it would blur the distinction them and marriage. But this is a fundamental issue of religious freedom. On what grounds can any body claim religious freedom for itself but deny it to others? これは、現代社会の結。低下させて乱交です
