"For many years now, Richard Schwartz has been a clear, unwavering voice for a more compassionate, more humane and holier Judaism. Who Stole My Religion? offers Jews and non-Jews alike a critique of many of the unhappy trends in the Jewish world today and an authentic and inspirational view of what traditional Judaism is and should be." --Alon Tal, Professor, Ben Gurion University of the Negev; Chairman, "The Green Movement" (Israel's Green Party); author, Pollution in the Promised Land
"No one has been more creative, committed, and consistent than Richard Schwartz in arguing for a Judaism that can address in all its depth the world crisis that all humanity and all the life-forms of our planet face today." -- Rabbi Arthur Waskow, director, The Shalom Center; author, Down-to-Earth Judaism, Seasons of Our Joy
"Once again Richard Schwartz has produced a thought provoking book. Who Stole My Religion? will be a very positive addition to our libraries. His writing is powerful and thought provoking. As always, Richard is not afraid to challenge us." --Rabbi Michael M. Cohen, Director of Development, Friends of the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies
"With so many people apparently oblivious of the climate catastrophe the world is rapidly approaching, Who Stole My Religion? is a breath of fresh air. I hope this excellent book will be widely read and its message heeded, helping fulfill Dr. Schwartz's dream of shifting our imperiled world to a sustainable path."-- Bruce Friedrich, peace and justice advocate; author, The Animal Activist's Handbook; Director of Policy, Farm Sanctuary
Who Stole My Religion?” is a wake up call to Jews to apply Judaism’s powerful teachings on justice, peace, compassion, sharing, kindness, and environmental sustainability to help shift our imperiled planet onto a sustainable path. It extols Judaism, arguing that Judaism is a radical, transformative religion, but argues that many Jews, especially Orthodox Jews are in denial about climate change, an existential threat to humanity, and are supporting conservative politicians and policies that are inconsistent with Jewish values. The book argues that the future of humanity depends on Jews applying Judaism’s highest values in response to today’s crises. Readers will become aware that, while some traditional Jews are becoming increasingly conservative and hawkish, Judaism is actually a radical religion with powerful teachings on justice, peace, compassion, sharing, tolerance, and environmental sustainability.
