Are good leaders always teachers in some way?

What difference does it make if a religion is linked to one particular people or country?

What are the advantages or disadvantages of people of a particular faith living together in the same area?

Which other faiths also regard Abraham as an important historical figure?

Why might people from the same or different religions interpret the same texts differently?

The State of Israel provided a refuge for Jewish people fleeing persecution in Europe and the Middle East; does it matter who counts as Jewish?

Judaism is one of the oldest religions, but Jewish people are still a tiny minority of the population.  Why aren’t there more Jews in the world?

The Rabbinic era started around the time of the destruction of the Second Temple. Create a job advert for a rabbi of a community who were new refugees from Israel after the Temple was destroyed, and were now living abroad surrounded by people of other faiths. Think about what the rabbi’s role should be within the community.

How much do your religious or other belief define your individual identity? Rank the elements of your identity in order of importance to you (for example, gender, nationality, political views, family, sports, religious faith, hobbies, ethical views).

Do you think our society in Scotland or the UK lives up to the standards of the Torah or the Seven Laws of Noah?

What rules would you put in place in order to promote Tikkun Olam?
