Synopsis

In Why We Remain Jews, Dr. Vladimir Tsesis describes the path he traversed from religious ignorance to strong belief in the Jewish religion. Tsesis assigns a special place to the proof of his conclusion that religion and science—especially in light of recent discoveries—are not antagonists but 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.

Dr. Tsesis born in the atheistic Soviet Union, describes his journey toward learning about his Jewish heritage and to a strong faith. Basically written to fellow Jews who have turned away from the Jewish religion, I found his personal experiences interesting.......more
