	Judaism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Despite this, Judaism in all its variations has remained tightly bound to a number of religious principles, the most important of which is the belief in a single, omniscient, omnipotent, omnibenevolent, transcendent God, who created the universe and continues to be involved in its governance.
		Judaism maintains that this is how the individual will merit rewards in the afterlife, called gan eden (Hebrew: "Garden of Eden") or olam haba ("World to Come"), though Judaism does not have a single concept of the afterlife, nor is the afterlife the focus of Jewish practice.
		In Reform Judaism, prayer is often conducted in the vernacular and men and women have equal roles in religious observance.

		Mormonism is distinct from the Latter Day Saint movement in that it applies to a subset of the branches of that movement.
