Congress of Secular Jewish Organizations (CSJO)
Welcome and
Shalom!
We
are a community of Jews living in/near Orange County, CA, whose approach
to being Jewish is focused on Jewish culture, history, and values. We
offer book and discussion groups for adults, and Holiday program events
for the whole community. Also, check out our calendar and newsletter for
upcoming events.
Secular Humanistic Jews affirm that...
...a Jew is someone who identifies with the history, culture, and future of the Jewish people
...Jewish identity is best preserved in a free, pluralistic environment
...Jewish history is a human saga, a testament to the significance of human power and human responsibility
...Judaism is the historic culture of the Jewish people
...we possess the power and the responsibility to shape our own lives, independent of supernatural authority
...ethics and morality should serve human needs
...the freedom and dignity of the Jewish people must go hand in hand with the freedom and dignity of every human being
