Judaism has existed in various forms for more than three thousand years. A respectively large variety of schools and opinions have existed over that time. Some of the distinct characteristics of Judaism are as follows: (1) Human beings have a unique if not the only role to play in their relation to God, (2) This world is more important than the next, (3) There are many unique truths, (4) The sensual world is to be enjoyed and respected, (5) Ethical accumulation of wealth is encouraged, and (6) Concrete representations of abstract concepts (rituals) are an important compliment to direct action.
