I recovered my infant Judaism, but in a reformist version.
An aged rabbi, crazed with liberalism, once said to me, We Jews are just ordinary human beings. Only a bit more so!
I have ended as a Reform Rabbi, grateful to Christianity for so many good things.
During the Second World War, evacuated to non-Jewish households, I encountered Christianity at home and in school.
I literally fell among Quakers when I went up to Oxford.
I didn't want to be on the losing side. I was fed up with Jewish weakness, timidity and fear. I didn't want any more Jewish sentimentality and Jewish suffering. I was sickened by our sad songs.
