Irwin Kula: How Can Religion Make Us Better Humans?

About this video

Rabbi Irwin Kula has been on the vanguard of disruptive innovation since it became the mantra of the post-dot.com reality. He sees disruptive innovation as a necessary force in what he calls this ‘next epic’ of religion.

“All the major religions are going from a triumphal way of being to acknowledging that they are just one historical, interesting expression of how to be in this world,” Rabbi Kula says. “The religions that are being forced into this next epic of treating human beings equally, whatever their religion or color, that’s brand-new.” Moving forward, Kula says we must determine how the traditional “jobs” of religion will be parsed out in a society that is drifting away from the domain of faith.
