Renewals are pretty much radicals who want to in some way identify as Jewish. They are a tiny fringe movement and tend to be extremely anti-Israel.

There is only one true Jewish faith... It is Torah Judaism and expressed best through what is called Orthodox Judaism. There are many paths to Orthodox Judaism (they are not all the same) but those who abandon the Torah and it's teachings are cut off from the chain...
