I'm a member of my synagogue's Tikkun Olam organization. I've never read the magazine, but I am familiar with the concept.
Obviously, this magazine is embracing the act of Tikkun Olam as the end, and not the means. I feel the same way. I think their idea of bringing religion into leftist politics is somewhat alien... I'm against a religious left and a religious right.
That being said, the left has been saying that all along. Just not the Democrats. Because the current Democrats are primarily spineless jackasses. |
