The Deepest Difference Between Religions Is Not

Those Who Believe In God Because Their Experience Of Life And The Facts Of Nature Prove His Existence Must Have Led Sheltered Lives And Closed Their Hearts To The Voice Of Their Brothers' Blood.

It Does Not Follow That The Meaning Must Be Given From Above; That Life And Suffering Must Come Neatly Labeled; That Nothing Is Worth While If The World Is Not Governed By A Purpose.

Rabbi Zusya Said That On The Day Of Judgment, God Would Ask Him, Not Why He Had Not Been Moses, But Why He Had Not Been Zusya.

The Doctrine Of Original Sin Claims That All Men Sinned In Adam; But Whether They Did Or Whether It Is Merely A Fact That All Men Sin Does Not Basically Affect The Problem Of Suffering.

Life Ceases To Be So Oppressive: We Are Free To Give Our Own Lives Meaning And Purpose, Free To Redeem Our Suffering By Making Something Of It.
