Description: Dr. Tsesis describes the path he traversed from religious ignorance to strong belief in the Jewish religion. In this book whose themes intersect with philosophy, theology, and ethics, Tsesis assigns a special place to the proof of his conclusion that religion and science--especially in light of recent discoveries--are not antagonists, and are, in fact, in complete harmony, supplementing and not excluding each other. In the spirit of ecumenism Tsesis speaks about coexistence of different religions, which share the common objective of assurance of perpetual survival of the human race. The unifying theme of this book, however, is the beauty of the Jewish religion and a possible answer to the question of why we remain Jews.
