people how they should conceive
of God, because everybody has
his own pet way, his own pecu-
liar and idiosyncratic way Of
visualizing that which no one can
possibly see. There can be no
quarrel with people as long as one
criterion is observed, and that is
that their conception of God and
their belief in God, which I shall
define in a moment, do not run
counter to their reason, do not
violate what, to the best of their
knowledge, they recognize as the
facts or the truth.
Now, what about belief in God
as contrasted with conception of
God? Belief in God l think we
must all have, because belief in
God, in the final analysis, means
believing in two things-believ-
ing that the ideals that we cherish
are real, that such things as JUS
tice and peace and brotherhood
and mercy and compassion and
honesty are not merely conven-
lent arrangements which society
somehow works out, but that
these actually correspond to the
very structure of the universe.
This is the way the universe was
put together. To believe in God
means to believe in the reality of
these spiritual ideals.
To believe in God means, Sec
ondly, to have faith that these
ideals can win out in the end. It
means believing that no matter
what obstacles, no matter what
discouragements we may face,
eventually, these ideals are bound
to be realized, if we work and
continue to inspire one another.
Now if you do not believe in
the reality of ideals or in the
possibility of their ultimate tri-
umph, then you do not believe in
God, no matter what you say.
And contrarywise, if you do be-
lieve in the reality of ideals and
in the possibility of their ultimate
triumph, you believe in God even

My Philosophy of Judaism
BY IRA EISENSTEIN

The first principle in my APP
proach to Judaism is that there
ought to be wide latitude within
Jewish life as to what you believe
and what you do not believe.
We cannot, any longer, speak of
a norm or ''normative" Judaism;
we cannot say that to be good
Jew one must believe what / be-
ieve. Nobody, any longer, in our
generation, can hope to issue a
universal declaration of princi-
pies; we cannot expect that there
will be unanimity on any declara-
ton by any individual or by any
group of individuals. Neverthe-
less, I shall here present by own
philosophical approach to Juda-
ism.

The Meaning of Belief
in God

What should Jews believe and
what should they not, about the
three major elements that conSti-
tute Judaism? What should they
believe about God? What should
they believe about Torah? What
should they believe about Israel?
About God: In the first place,
we must make a distinction be-
tween our conception of God and
our belief in God. I do not really
think it matters very much what
your conception of God is, that is
to say, how you visualize God.
Some people find they cannot
visualize God except as an old
man with a long beard, and some
peoples God bears a strange re-
semblance to their fathers, or to
their rabbis, or to some other
heroes whom they may have come
across in their early, impression
able years. There are other people
who conceive of God in a much
more philosophical way-as a
kind of force, or principle, or
power. You will find that there
is no use in trying to suggest to
