Even those who may not be so sure in their beliefs but still go to synagogue since they believe that Judaism may carry the truth and that prayers may, after all, be of help, will have to realize that their prayers cannot be the same. All this reveals that synagogue attendance is in serious trouble and that the daily attendance of services is no longer an indication of serious religiosity.

They may be nothing more than an expression of a traditional life style without a real religious commitment. While this surely has some value, it is far from enough.
