What is Reconstructionist Judaism?
{{Judaism}} '''Reconstructionist Judaism''' is a movement within [[Judaism]] that started in the 1920s. People like [[Mordecai Kaplan]] (1881-1983) believed that Judaism is like a [[civilization]] that constantly develops. The Jewish society therefore develops much like any other society. As a result, the Jewish religion needs to adapt to these changes. There are about 13 million Jews in the world, about half of them live in the [[United States]]. Of these, about three percent, or 180,000 people, see themselves as Reconstructionist. == Other websites == *[http://jrf.org/ Archived site of the former Jewish Reconstructionist Federation] JRF *[http://www.jewishrecon.org New site of the Jewish Reconstructionist Movement] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171005222757/http://www.jewishrecon.org/ |date=2017-10-05 }} JRM *[http://www.rrc.edu/ Reconstructionist Rabbinical College] RRC *[http://www.therra.org/ Reconstructionist Rabbinical Association] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210410071551/https://therra.org/ |date=2021-04-10 }} RRA *[http://www.universitysynagogue.org/ University Synagogue Orange County] US {{religion-stub}} [[Category:Jewish denominations]]
