Courage and Innovation

If you want to follow the thread of religious innovation and ethical behavior in modern Jewish life, you won\’t need to stray far from the career and philosophies of Rabbi Harold Schulweis. In fact, you probably can\’t confront those topics without confronting the work of Schulweis.

Since he was ordained in 1950, Schulweis has challenged the status quo with an intellectualism and a fearlessness born of the confidence that moral rightness is on his side.

Critics say Los Angeles is all image. The city, they claim, presents an illusion to the world much like the movies Hollywood projects on its big screens. The myth goes that it\’s a city of facades, with the favored tools are the editor\’s airbrush or the plastic surgeon\’s scalpel. There are no friendships here, only contacts and connections, they say.
