Beskrivning

In Spiritual Integrity, Martin S. Cohen argues that it is possible for a serious commitment to religion to coexist with a parallel commitment to the absolute integrity of the intellect. Written for people of all faiths by a working rabbi with decades of experience in the pulpit, Spiritual Integrity is its author’s attempt to use the evidence of his own faith to demonstrate that it is entirely possible to use the traditional trappings of religious commitment to live honestly in the world as a person of faith.

Recensioner i media

This is a daring work. It tries both to deepen spirituality and to deflate its pretensions. The journey toward spiritual integrity requires relentless honesty, self-criticism, truthfulness, and insistence on truth. Cohen is a wise and amicable companion on an arduous journey.
