JUDAISM AND THE WORLD.
“There is a part of Judaism which is meant for the whole world. The great ethical principle enunciated in the Ten Commandments, -the moral code of the Scriptures—these are the foundations upon which a better world may be constructed, and these are independent of any one creed. The basic doctrine of human relationship—‘thou shall love they neighbour as thyself’— (ran be practised by everybody, irrespective of race and denomination, it is not necessary for Judaism, Christianity), Mohammedanism. Buddhism, and other religions to come to a common agreement before that Divine command can be acted upon. It is not necessary for the synagogue, church, chapel, and mosque to devise a mode of worship in which all can join before that Divine command can lie put into general practice. . . . There is so much wrangling about religion with a small “r” that we neglect Religion with capital ‘R’. ” —-Dr A. Cohen, minister of the Hebrew congregation in Birmingham.
