Noahism or Brith Olam or Spiritual Zionism (aka צִיּוֹנוּת רוּחָנִית) or Brith Shalom meaning the Covenant of Peace but perhaps better known as The Rainbow Covenant, describes Universal Judaism or Judaism for all being any system promoting what Judaism considers to be the 7 fundamental principles of civilized Humans. These principles include:

No Injustice
No Murder
No Idolatry
No Blasphemy
No Lewdity
No Cruelty to animals
No Theft

Many individuals and groups around the world today and throughout history have upheld these principles. Judaism considers such people to be Hokhmei Umot haOlam. Any of the Hokhmei Umot haOlam who have come to believe in Noahide Judaism could be considered Hasidei Umot haOlam.

The Covenant of Noah that HaShem will not flood the land as long as all of the people of the land maintain the Laws of Noah. All being well, those who have never broken this covenant should merit a place in the world to come (though Judaism holds there is no guarantee without Noahide Judaism).
