One evening at Friday Night Live<\/a> a couple of years ago, Craig Taubman<\/a> walked past me. He stopped, came back, looked at me and said, "Are you the guy who writes that out-there stuff?"<\/p>\n

Guilty.<\/p>\n

From Craig’s press release<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Released in concurrence with the 29 days in the Jewish month of Elul, a time of thought and introspection, Jewels of Elul III<\/a> is a booklet featuring contributions from a diverse group of 29 individuals; from Elie Wiesel to the Dalai Lama, from the Mayor of Sderot to Deborah Lipstadt, from Matisyahu to Kirk Douglas, plus many other Rabbis, scholars, activists, and community leaders.<\/p>\n

"We asked people to write with a particular theme in mind, ‘Hope and Healing’” says Craig Taubman who heads Craig ‘N Co<\/a>. "The 29 Jewels we received were introspective and inspired, revealing and rejoicing."<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I checked out the Jewels of Elul website<\/a> and found this ad: "Great Jewish Wisdom. No Guilt."<\/p>\n

I’m skeptical that religious instruction guaranteed to produce no guilt can be wise.<\/p>\n

Every time I see Craig’s name in the news<\/a>, it’s because he’s spearheading some non-denominational outreach such as "Let My People Sing<\/a>."<\/p>\n
