[Jewish] Judaism and Gender program this Thursday evening

[Steven Nathan]

Please join us this Thursday in the Merrill Living and Dining Room for a 
fascinating program:

_Beyond Male and Female: Gender and the Creation of Humanity_

Explore what classical Jewish texts have to teach us about the creation 
of humanity and the concept of gender.  If you think God only created 
male and female in the creation story, the ancient rabbis thought 
differently! 

So join Rabbi Sarra Lev, Ph.D. of the Reconstructionist Rabbinical 
College in PA and noted expert on Judaism, Gender and Rabbinic texts for 
this thought-provoking program.
You don't have to be queer, trans or Jewish to learn from and enjoy the 
program ... so pass on the info to anyone you think might be interested.

"The more deeply immersed I became in the thinking of the prophets, the 
more powerfully it became clear to me what the lives of the prophets 
sought to convey: that morally speaking there is no limit to the concern 
one must feel for the suffering of human beings. It also became clear to 
me that in regard to cruelties committed in the name of a free society, 
some are guilty, all are responsible."

-Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel
