Quote by Maurice Samuel

“Our Jewishness is not a creed, it is ourself, our totality. Indeed, it may be fairly said that the surest evidence of your lack of seriousness in religion is the fact that your religions are not national, that you are not compromised and dedicated, en masse, to the faith.”

I call this process the Judaization of Christianity because Christianity will be the vehicle through which this society becomes Jewish.”
