- Jewish Theater of New York
- The artists of The Jewish Theater of New York, one of the most open-minded Jewish cultural institutions of our time, define Judaism as a philosophy that cherishes the question and despises the answer. It’s their understanding that what makes Judaism survive the test of time is the fact that after thousands of “debating years” Jews have not yet figured out the answers to any of their questions. This never-satisfied thirst for perpetual questioning also drives the ‘engine’ of their theater. Knowing that (to paraphrase the Bible) “On the day you see me you shall die,” they are here to produce theatrical works that defy easy answers. They do their utmost, in every production they mount, to promote equal sympathy for opposing characters, and to present all sides of the issue equally. Routinely they leave it for their audiences to decide who’s in the right and who’s in the wrong; who’s saint and who’s villain; and, many a time, who anyone really is… This philosophy, of course, allows artists of every ethnicity, background and belief to work together and be one very proud family.

- Jewtopia in New York
- The comedy that goes where no gentile has gone before. Two hours of comedy! After a quarter century of Neil Simon and his imitators, the playwrights redeem the formula with edge! Displaying a commercial sensibility that is almost obscene, they combine the swaggering generation y, (for yahweh) sensibility with the more traditional borscht belt approach, nailing two demographics at once! The result is irresistible – like watching precocious kids mouth off to their parents! The young authors play the parts with sassy abandon! The script throws every ingredient on hand into the comedic chicken soup...you may eat till you plotz!”

- Judaic Art - oil paintings by Golld
- When you look at this oil painting, it makes very strong impression on you. The fact that this painting
was created by really
professional painter becomes the second of importance. The author put special music and harmony
among strokes on the
painting. There is some special philosophic problem inside of it. We do not know anything about the
past and the future
of the old man, but it is vividly for us that he himself is the wisdom and eternity. The child
nestles to the old man

- ListJ - Secular Jewish Identity Discussion Group and Resource Centre
- "ListJ" is a forum for debaters interested in discussing Jewish identity from a secular, non-theistic perspective. This group will appeal to persons who maintain the view that one can be Jewish without belief in God or any other supernatural entities. Topics will reference those topics of interest to secular Jews including Judaism, Zionism, anti-Semitism, Jewish life cycle events, and all aspects of Jewish culture relevant to non-theistic Jews.
This list will be unmoderated with the tone and content of discussion left to the good taste and responsibility of its members. The list is open to all, but prospective members should know that the main interest of group members is secular Jewishness.
