Dershowitz</b> <br />grew up Orthodox but later became secular.<br /><br />He said this about Orthodox Judaism, <br />many years after he quit it:<br /><br />“I cannot leave my progeny any legacy comparable to <br />the Orthodox commitment to, and intimate knowledge of, <br />Jewish tradition and practice that my predecessors left me.<br /><br />Though I have not abandoned my Jewishness – far from it – I have also not carried on the tradition of daily religious observance and total immersion in the sources of the tradition. <br /><br />Sometimes I regret not having done so.”<br /><br /><b>SOURCE:</b> <i>Chutzpah</i> by Alan M.

In many parts of Europe it <br />was a time for pogroms and beatings; Jews were <br />to be punished for their refusal to acknowledge <br />the divinity of Jesus.”<br /><br /><b>SOURCE:</b> <i>Chutzpah</i> by Alan M.

Dershowitz said:</b><br /><br />“When Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire in the 4th century, the church achieved the political power to assure that its prophecy of Jewish failure was fulfilled. <br /><br />Jews were excluded from positions of influence, and their rights: political, economic, social, and religious -- were taken away. It became a civic virtue, as well as a religious obligation, to contribute to the vilification of the Jews. <br /><br />The Code of Justinian, enacted in 534 CE, curtailed Jewish freedom of worship, banned Jews from holding public office, <br />and divested them of most property rights.”<br /><br /><b>SOURCE:</b> <i>Chutzpah</i> by Alan M.
