   how is social justice not an integral part of Judaism? I mean, granted, I too get aggravated at people who bandy about the phrase “tikkun olam” as meaning only “supporting liberal causes” cause tikkun olam is a much deeper mystical concept (that is not to say that in supporting some liberal causes one couldnt be affecting tikkun olam) but you can’t deny that things like eliminating poverty (among Jews AND non-Jews) are things that the Torah (using Torah in the larger sense, including the oral Torah) compels us to take a part in doing. I mean read Amos, Hashem is all like, “hey, if you neglect the poor, your festivals aint my festivals”.

   Check out this link to my boy Nick’s blog, he gives the whats what on that (sorry I dont know enough about html to do it the fancy way):
