However, when we choose the easy way out of
difficult decision. we are only running away from
reality.
1t is form of day-dreaming, and sooner or
later we are rudely awakened from the folly of our
escape. History has shown time and time again
that we have arrived at catastrophe by our failure
to respond to events before they have become
perilous crises.
If the world is ever to become the peaceful world
we want it to be, we must be prepared to live by
principles - to pursue those principles completely
and without reservation.
We must accept reality and react promptly to
all the facts - not only to those we want to hear
And we must fight constantly for the whole truth
For peace can come only from truth, knowledge
and honest understanding. Half the truth will
produce only half peace and half a peace is
no longer enough.

Wishful thinking is the easy and smoothly paved
road to compromise. Knowing that the right road
is also the harder one, we have an all-too-human
tendency to choose the easier way. And. of course
the justification for our choice becomes simple

After attending five Bas-Mitz-
vahs at the Jewish Center I have
decided that the idea of the in
duction into Judaism service for
girls of the age of thirteen as well
as boys is a wonderful idea :. i.
When Rabbi Sanders Tofield of
the Jewish Center first introduce
ed the practice here I was in a
greement because I decided the
glamorous exercise would be an
inducement for young ladies to
continue their study of Hebrew
The Bas Mitzvah service will no
doubt have a definite place in the
continuation of Religious studies
for girls f. But to me the Bas
Mitzvah service has done great
deal more than that It has
finally elevated the Jewish girl
to the same rank as the Jewish
boy-a reform which I think has
long been coming =.
I will probably receive a CEN
sure from a rabbi following this
disetation and I am sure the good
rabbi will be quite right in stat
ing that I should keep my mus
ings out of the realm of religion
because it is something I know
nothing about I am certain
also that it will be a long time
before there will be a rabbinical
edict that the Jewess will be &C
ceptable on the pulpit and in the
daily minyn as will be her broth
er Jew However, I do believe
that give the girls chance at
Bas Mitzvah and they will soon
see to it that the boys will have
to move over for the honors .
Be that as it may Bias Mitzvah |
also does a great deal for the par
ents of daughters who until now
