That's true, no Jewish rednecks that i know of 
No absolutism from the 'pulpit' (or whatever the Jews call it)? That's really cool. Perhaps I shouldn't let Schmeuley Boteach (he is as much of a whiny sleazy ass as his name suggests) taint my image of the Rabbi so much.
So what exactly do you believe/practice as a humanistic Jew?
Voidikins... I like it
Come hop a flight to NZ and i'll give you a big sloppy load of my philosophizing.
But seriously, just go get a bunch of (e-)books from some of the legends like Russell, Kant, Chomsky etc - I started with "Why i am not a Christian" and went from there, but I think that Russell's "A history of western philosophy" would be a better starting point.
I also needed a serious amount of boredom and a bag of weed, though this constraint doesn't affect everyone.
