For some years I deserted religion in favour of Marxism. The republic of goodness seemed more attainable than the Kingdom of God.

An aged rabbi, crazed with liberalism, once said to me, We Jews are just ordinary human beings. Only a bit more so!

To my surprise, my 70s are nicer than my 60s and my 60s than my 50s, and I wouldn't wish my teens and 20s on my enemies.

Praying privately in churches, I began to discover that heaven was my true home and also that it was here and now, woven into this life.

I recovered my infant Judaism, but in a reformist version.

The real evidence for Jesus and Christianity is in how Jesus and the Christianity based on him manifest themselves in the lives of practicing Christians.

To change, to convert? Why bother?
