*This week, Jesse Lieberfeld an11th-grade American Jewish teenager won the
Dietrich College’s 2012 Martin Luther King, Jr. Writing Awards for
composing a beautiful piece about his own moral awakening and journey away
from Judaism.   *

“I once belonged to a wonderful religion. I belonged to a religion that
allows those of us who believe in it to feel that we are the greatest
people in the world—and feel sorry for ourselves at the same time,” says
young Jesse.  However, it seems that it didn’t take too long before Jesse
found out for himself that what he was part of was neither flattering or
glorious.

Jewish tribal cultural indoctrination is a full-on, comprehensive process.
“Although I was fortunate enough to have parents who did not try to force
me into any one set of beliefs, being Jewish was in no way possible to
escape growing up”, says Jesse. “It was constantly reinforced at every
holiday, every service, and every encounter with the rest of my relatives.”

Inherent to the culture and its maintenance is self-love. “I was forever
reminded how intelligent my family was, how important it was to remember
where we had come from, and to be proud of all the suffering our people had
overcome in order to finally achieve their dream in the perfect society of
Israel.”

Jewish ideological and cultural ‘programming’ is rather sophisticated. It
is a unique dynamic pattern practiced in both a collective and an
individual way. But those who carry the message aren’t themselves fully
aware of their role within the tribal ideology* *they aim to maintain.
