The other day I was listening to a radio show where an interview was taking place. The interviewee was a Jewish woman in her 20s. She said something that took me completely off guard so I thought I'd ask about it here. She said that her rabbi told the congregation (is that the right word?) that you don't have to believe in God to be Jewish. She said it quickly and then moved on to something else, but I couldn't get it out of my head. I'm very confused by this statement. Doesn't the entire Jewish religion center around the existence of an almighty God?
