Archive-name: auto/soc.culture.jewish/Liberal-Judaism-via-FTP


Thanks to the generosity of the kind folks at israel.nysernet.org, ftp access
is now available to back issues of the mail.liberal-judaism digests, as well
as to some information files I have accumulated over the years with respect to
the positions of Reform Judaism.

To access the back issues of the digest, ftp to israel.nysernet.org, and cd to
the mail.liberal-judaism/digests directory. In there, you will find, for each
backissue (v1nm), a ".archive" and a ".index" file. The ".archive" is the
digest as it was sent out; the ".index" is the subjects in the corresponding
".archive".

To access the information files, ftp as before and cd to the
mail.liberal-judaism/info-files directory. The files available are:

atheism				Position on Atheism

If you are unable to ftp, and wish a back issue or an information file, you
can, as always, drop me a note. If you want to subscribe to the liberal
judaism mailing list, again, drop me a note. If you want to submit an article,
you can either send it, again, to me, or to our NEW address,
liberal-judaism@israel.nysernet.org.

"It is not our task as liberal Jews to complain about the Orthodox attitude or
to be bullied by it, but rather to choose our legitimate path according to the
inner logic and development of liberal Judaism" -- Rabbi Walter Jacob
