It is in keeping with this spirit tradition that this festival was made the Day in which we bring our greatest most precious offering to god in that we offer him our children As new servants who will serve him and keep his Law. We do this by initiating our children in the religion fathers and receiving them As members the Community and confirming them in their status As jews. The Congress.

Many the Young people Are settling the matter by getting married out hand and hurry up weddings Are rather numerous. Whether this is a Wise thing to do not is a question but if it is not the mistakes youth and love usually right themselves without serious consequences. F a a is the wait and religion. Or.

That is Why i assert so confidently that there is a real deep religious movement afoot in the world. But not Ore those Convy rations could have gone it would have i id instantly if any one bearing the uniform and Brand any organized religious body any clergy Man priest Mollah suchlike advocate the ten thousand patented religions in the world had come in. He would have brought in his sectarian spites his propaganda Church going his persecution the heretic and the illegitimate his ecclesiastical politics his taboos and his doctrinal. Touch iness. That is Why though s i perceive there is a great wave religious revival in the world to Day i doubt whether it bodes Well for the professional religion. A the other Day i was talking to an eminent anglican among various other people and some one with an Eye to him propounded this remarkable View. A a a there Are four stages Between belief and utter unbelief. There Are those who believe in god those who doubt him like Huxley the agnostic those who deny him like the atheists but who do at least keep his place vacant and lastly those who have set up a Church in his place. That is the last outrage a this is rather Strong language it voices the revolt Strong men who cannot accept As True the unbelievable in fact impossible myths and miracles upon which orthodox christianity rests and have not the courage to accept twentieth penury Juda to with very remarkable results for amateurs. 8 ill remains to consider. The entertainments. These were r mostly dances although there was one musical evening an imitation circus and some dramatic entertainments. In organizing the Center movement it Jjo Feu that there was need a Central organization to wring the Jung jewish people Cincinnati together for social enjoyment and conviviality and it would be a highly moral and cultural act to pro Jde such a meeting place. The Wise Center was started with that end in View. That it filled a needed place in the Community was evidenced by the Large attendance at the social affairs. A.

The sum and substance . Phineas criticism is that he has a different Outlook jews and Judaism than the controlling bodies the centers. The centers draw their membership mainly from the children members congregations whose leaders believe that the jews Are citizens the w orld. And that the jewish religion is mainly right living.
