Dennis Prager and Joseph Telushkin address the fundamental questions that confront contemporary Jews and those seeking to understand Judaism. The authors examine whether one can doubt God yet remain a good Jew, why organized religion matters, and what role dietary laws serve. They explore intermarriage concerns and offer guidance for those beginning Jewish practice. Written for educated, questioning Jews and curious non-Jews alike, the book presents Judaism as a rational and moral framework for modern life. Prager and Telushkin provide clear, engaging answers to the dilemmas that arise when ancient tradition meets contemporary skepticism. Their approach offers both believers and doubters a pathway to understanding Judaism's relevance today.
