Fox and Faith<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Michael J. Fox&#8217;s religious background is a tapestry woven with different threads. While he was raised as a <a href=\"https:\/\/whatreligionisinfo.com\/is-christianity-the-true-religion\/\">Catholic<\/a>, he described himself as a &#8220;lapsed Catholic&#8221; in his 2009 memoir, &#8220;Always Looking Up: The Adventures of an Incurable Optimist.&#8221; However, his marriage to Tracy Pollan, a Jewish woman, led him to embrace the Jewish faith. Together, they raised their four children Jewish, demonstrating a strong commitment to the faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fox&#8217;s involvement with Reform Judaism goes beyond simply raising his children in the faith. He actively attends synagogue in Manhattan, a commitment that underscores his personal connection to the religion. His dedication to the Jewish community is further evident in his advocacy work for Parkinson&#8217;s disease and stem cell research. In 2008, Fox received recognition from the Union for Reform Judaism for his efforts. Rabbi Eric H. Yoffie, then president of the Union, praised Fox&#8217;s work, stating it embodied &#8220;the highest ideals of Judaism.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The influence of Judaism on Fox&#8217;s life is apparent in various ways. His commitment to social justice, evident in his advocacy for Parkinson&#8217;s research, aligns with the Jewish tradition of &#8220;tikkun olam,&#8221; which emphasizes the importance of repairing the world. He has also expressed gratitude for the support he received from the Jewish community during his diagnosis and subsequent battle with Parkinson&#8217;s disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Fox&#8217;s personal religious beliefs remain private, it&#8217;s clear that Judaism has played a significant role in shaping his values and his approach to life. His commitment to raising his children Jewish, his active participation in the Jewish community, and his advocacy work all demonstrate the impact of faith on his life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Religion_is_Michael_J_Foxs_Parents\"><\/span>What Religion is Michael J.
