My only concern is closed religious (doesn't actually have to be religious) communities like this sometimes become breeding grounds for really scuzzy stuff. Victims can't really escape their community without leaving all they've known behind. And victimizers are often given protection due to their status in the community.

@@eggmon420 *Indeed. Jews or other religious people do NOT have a monopoly on this matter. I, for example, am an atheist. But, I still cherish my SECULAR family, spend time with them often, visit my mother (father is dead) at least once or twice a week, and for sure stay away from my cell phone often on a weekly basis when I am by myself and desire serious quiet time. I'm generation X, btw. My generation (people in their mid 40s through mid 50's) grew up without cell phones as kids. In any case, I also turn off the phone altogether when I am having dinner or lunch with family members in my house, their house(s), a restaurant, or if I'm with close friends enjoying their company. In sum -- if you have inner discipline, if you know how to live LIFE without all the nuisance and modern conveniences, if you treat fellow humans with respect and kindness -- you will be alright WITHOUT RELIGION.*

This was a very challenging story to tell, given all of the tension and controversy, but I felt that I did the best of my ability to tell a well-rounded story, highlighting both the positives and the negatives in the community. One note about the North Korean internet comparison - I do regret keeping that part in because it is not true, and I got carried away. Thank you to those who have pointed it out.

Let it be known to all: Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit! I tell ye, truly, Jesus of Nazareth is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. He is the anointed one, for he is, Jesus Christ. God the Father has raised him from the dead; who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God! Angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father, but by him. They who believe and are baptized with the Holy Spirit shall be saved; but they who believe not shall be damned. For they who believe not on him, shall die in their sins! I tell ye now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father! There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you! They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God... Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask: "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen." 1 John 2:2 KJV 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. Acts 13:26-33 KJV 26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, *and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.* 27 *For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.* 28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain. 29 *And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.* 30 *But God raised him from the dead:* 31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. 32 *And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,* 33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. 1 Peter 3:22 KJV 22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. John 14:6 KJV 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Mark 16:16 KJV 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. John 8:24 KJV 24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Acts 2:38 KJV 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Luke 11:13 KJV 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? John 14:21-24 KJV 21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.* 22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.* 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*

Were you also aware their religious schools and communities are heavily subsidized by taxpayers?

I grew up in an Orthodox Jewish family, a rabbi’s daughter and also exposed to Chassidic Judaism and personally drawn to it. The passionate zeal, beauty and holiness in the traditional Torah centered Chasidic way of life is so unique. I went to Beis Yaakov summer camp for girls and was blessed to go to yeshivot and even study and live in the dormitory at the women’s branch of Yeshiva University with other Rabbi’s daughters. I left that fold at age 21 to experience regular American life, many people and cultures and other religions. As for a holy and spiritual daily life, I don’t think anything else compares to Chasidic Judaism and that community life. I left it, but thankfully, it never has never left me. True love and beauty, holiness and kindness- are everlasting. I’m so grateful it’s still in me. This video is precious and yet I feel that you have to have experienced it to really take it in. I too, feel grateful that this wonderful attempt was made. ❤

Knowledge of all “hue-mankind” and all global religious traditions is essentially powerful and useful.It’s very important to me in by overall world views of various ethnicities and their religious understandings, which may be different from my deeply held orthodox Islamic beliefs. Drew deserves credit for displaying his religious faith for one and all to see. Much respect, again, is offered by me in taking the time to objectively watch this video.

I think the only belief that can save humanity, is to love our world, nature and each other. Any belief system that separates one human from another, especially with violence, Is a zero-sum game. Why would God wish death or war OR SEGREGATION by his word? If God created this amazing planet and everything on this planet? Why would God want us to destroy each other or any part of it's beauty? Orthodoxy is cozy...you feel safe having the "right" belief. But to be "right" about what God wants means that another person hast to be "wrong" about what god wants. This is what is often referred to as Zero-sum game. There is the earth and it's flora and fauna. We may be the "keepers" of the earth....as CHOSEN by God? If we are.....don't we have to STOP making war? Look at all the wars through the millennia......isn't it time to make the final law? The law against WAR SO that we can move forward in peace? Didn't God create Physics if God created the World? So then......God=Science=Math=Physics? God=Truth=Math=Science=Physics=Law....etc...AND ETC. God doesn't seem so complicated to me.....God=Truth=Geometry=Math...... Anyway you get my drift.

Thanks for making it, and doing so in such a respectful and open way.

Thank you for this refreshing, respectful and very educational video! Hugs from Japan!

Thank you Drew, I am an Egyptian Muslim myself and my father who lived the era of Egypt having Muslim, Jew and Christian community along each other and as one made me always long and try to learn as much as I can about the Jewish community and look forward to spread the peace and understanding as I think there are many many similarities that makes it irrelevant to talk about differences! Peace and love to everyone no matter what!

I believe will be peace in the world if we get closer to each other and know more about each other cultures. Great documents and thanks for sharing. Shalom, Salaam, Peace...!!

I grew up conservative Jewish and it doesn't cut it for me... The families have high divorce rates. They talk about politics and the state of Israel at Temple, a house of worship not political debate, and the families in conservative Jewish community move away from each another for career opportunities. Orthodox Jewish people work with their hands, play instruments, don't get divorced and don't move away from family. Also they protest against the conflict with Palestine and avoid getting drafted. I wish to be part of an Orthodox Jewish community one day

Thank you for giving insight into this community

Be it known: Through the Holy Spirit, God has put it on me to preach to those lost in the devil's deceit! I tell ye, truly, Jesus of Nazareth is the propitiation for the whole world's sins. He is the anointed one, for he is, Jesus Christ. God the Father has raised him from the dead; who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God! Angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life: no one comes to the Father, but by him. They who believe and are baptized with the Holy Spirit shall be saved; but they who believe not shall be damned. For they who believe not on him, shall die in their sins! I tell ye now to repent of your sins, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, and you'll receive the gift of the Holy Spirit upon asking the Father! There are *NO* sub-divisions of Christianity. You're either a disciple of Christ or not. A Christian is someone who follows God's word, not a religion. Who obey the Father and follow his will; not man's nor their own heart's. Unless you keep Jesus' commandments, think not the Holy Spirit will dwell within you! They who heed this message and did what was stated with an open heart to God... Read the Holy Bible (KJV) daily and every time before you read, pray to the Father and ask: "Lord I ask that you give me understanding of your word, that I interpret it the way you want me to, and none of my own. I ask you in Jesus' name, amen." 1 John 2:2 KJV 2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world. Acts 13:26-33 KJV 26 Men and brethren, children of the stock of Abraham, *and whosoever among you feareth God, to you is the word of this salvation sent.* 27 *For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their rulers, because they knew him not, nor yet the voices of the prophets which are read every sabbath day, they have fulfilled them in condemning him.* 28 And though they found no cause of death in him, yet desired they Pilate that he should be slain. 29 *And when they had fulfilled all that was written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid him in a sepulchre.* 30 *But God raised him from the dead:* 31 And he was seen many days of them which came up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem, who are his witnesses unto the people. 32 *And we declare unto you glad tidings, how that the promise which was made unto the fathers,* 33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. 1 Peter 3:22 KJV 22 Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. John 14:6 KJV 6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Mark 16:16 KJV 16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. John 8:24 KJV 24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. Acts 2:38 KJV 38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Luke 11:13 KJV 13 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him? John 14:21-24 KJV 21 *He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.* 22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, *If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.* 24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and *the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.*

Judaism is a peaceful religion , Zionism came after in the 1940's , Zionism is this idea that peaceful Jews are weak and Jews need to fight and defend , its ideology is similar to jihad , the problem is that Zionism is not a real religion , it was created by the British secret service ( Mi6 ) and the Americas ( CIA ) after WW2 , its essentially a man made ideology with secular and communist foundations that calls for a homeland , so its a man made religion just like Mormonism or Freemasonry , but Zionism has its own beauty , its got its own unique history , in any case I respect both Zionist and ultra conservative has disc Jews , both follow the same rules

I was Hasidic for a few years. Mostly affiliated with Chabad but felt closest to the Breslov community. While I've left the Orthodox Judaism as a whole, I can say the Hasidic community is among the most welcoming. The summer I spent studying at Hadar Hatorah in Crown Heights and Mayanot in Jerusalem will never be forgotten. It made me closer to my Jewish identity. Am Yisrael Chai.
