Talia Goshen
Mediator and Facilitator
Humanist Rabbi and pastor, certified mediator, marriage and family counselor


"I believe in human beings, in our power, in our creativity, in our ability to overcome obstacles, in the laws of morality, equality and justice, in the power of science and pluralistic and humanist ideas - which leads to a cultured, enlightened and fair society."
I believe in Judaism as a culture, constantly changing, and not as a religion, fixed by the laws of Halacha.
My Judaism is flexible and context-dependent. My Judaism yesterday morning is different from my Judaism tonight.
I believe that women should be given the opportunity to respectfully join my culture, to marry and be born into my culture, without the humiliating processes of Orthodox conversion, the institutional demand to erase identity and hide the culture from which a person who is not Jewish according to Halacha came.
"I don't need proof, denial of the past, previous traditions, spiritual essence, and personal story to accept new members into my club."
