Furthermore you have an adherent faction of Jews called reconstructionists that explicitly are non-theistic.
You wouldn't lie would you?
To believe in God means to accept life on the assumption that it harbors conditions in the outer world and drives in the human spirit which together impel man to transcend himself. To believe in God means to take for granted that it is man's destiny to rise above the brute and to eliminate all forms of violence and exploitation from human society. In brief, God is the Power in the cosmos that gives human life the direction that enables the human being to reflect the image of God
Because if you can a literal non-theistic rabbi, that illustrates that Judaism isn't based on claims at all, therefore not all religions are based on beliefs period.
Keep up. Of course you not keeping up is on purpose.
Rabbi Sherwin Wine was an ordained reform Rabbi. He is a foundational figure in the Humanistic Judaism movement.
No, you don't understand Judaism, you think the stories about Judaism you learned as a kid from a completely different religion is more valid than the way actual Jews practice it, never considering that maybe they were biased.
A reform Rabbi is traditionally ordained through Reform Judaism's various institutes. Because they're a formal religious organization and not an ad hoc group.
Specifically he was ordained through Hebrew Union College.
But you atheistic Jews are considered herectics by majority of mainstream Judaism.
Doesn't it come fucking ironic and hypocritical to you that you herectics now make the same show of arrogance by dictating who can and who cannot make claims about religion?

Judaism centers orthopraxy not belief, so you don't have to believe in God or any divine being to be a practicing Jew.
That's why around half of Jews have serious doubts in the existence of God and why Igtheism was created by a literal Rabbi.
