Abstract:

The answer for some who have confronted modernity, with all its blandishments and possibility for good, has been to withdraw from it. There are others at the other end of the spectrum—the assimilationists—who have removed themselves totally from the destiny of the Jewish people by completely disavowing any relatedness to past or present as Jews. Most of us can be found between, on the bell-shaped curve.
