Paul Golin – Who Are America’s 1.5 Million “Jews of No Religion” And What Do They Really Believe?

Paul Golin, executive director of the Society for Humanistic Judaism (SHJ), will discuss the
results of The Pew Research Center’s recently released once-a-decade study of American
Jewry, including the fact that the category of “Jews of No Religion” increased to 27% from
22% in 2013. Who are these people? Are we them? Join us for a discussion about what the
survey’s data means for the future of Humanistic Judaism and Judaism in general. SHJ is the
umbrella organization for congregations like Machar. Paul is a writer, speaker, and
advocate on issues of importance to the Jewish community including secularity,
intermarriage, disaffiliation, and inclusion.
