In Spiritual Integrity, the author argues that religious allegiance needs to co-exist with a parallel commitment to intellectual integrity. There is no way to know what it unknowable, but owning up to the limits of our human ability to perceive and interpret the world can be the beginning of honest faith.
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.
