What makes authentic Torah Judaism unique when compared to any other religion is that Torah Judaism is the only religion to claim Divine revelation in front of 3 million of our ancestors. 

No other religion came make this claim.  We learn in Pirkei Avos, Chapters of the Fathers, the chain of tradition how the Torah has been transmitted from G-d to Moses; from Moses, Moshe to Joshua, Yehoshua.  From Yehoshua to the Elders, the Zekanim.  From the Elders to the Prophets, the Ne'veim.  The chain continues to this very day and this is the basis of our belief. 

We have listed below a partial list of organizations whose members believe that your past is your birthright; your future is your legacy and your present is the time to claim ownership of both.   Your Judaism; Yours for the Clicking!
