Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The American Council for Judaism (ACJ) is an organization of American Jews committed to the proposition that Jews are not a nationality but merely a religious group, adhering to the original stated principles of Reform Judaism articulated by the Pittsburgh Platform. The ACJ was founded in 1942 by a group of Reform rabbis who opposed the direction of their movement, including, but not limited to, on the issue of Zionism. After the Reform movement declared itself officially neutral on Zionism in 1937, the split was prompted by the passage of a resolution endorsing the raising of a "Jewish army" in Palestine to fight alongside the Allies in World War II. The leading rabbis included Louis Wolsey, Morris Lazaron, Abraham Cronbach, and Henry Cohen but their most vocal representative soon became Elmer Berger, who became the Council''s Executive Director.
