DID YOU KNOW

According to the Pew Research Center, in 2013 six-in-ten Jews in America said that being Jewish is mainly a matter of culture or ancestry, compared with 15% who said it is mainly a matter of religion.   

Two-thirds of American Jews say that a person can be Jewish even if he or she does not believe in God.
