[quote=Anonymous]After the Holocaust, a large group of Jews became atheists, and another large group became ultra Orthodox. The rabbi at a synagogue I used to attend in NYC was always trying to square belief in God with the Holocaust. One time he spoke about the many Jews who had survived the Holocaust and that showed that the Holocaust could have been much worse. This reminded me of the Jewish story about a new rabbi who had just been hired at a synagogue. His first duty was to preside over a funeral. He said the time had come when members of the congregation would come up and speak about the good things this man had done. The congregants looked uncomfortably at each other and no one stepped up. The rabbi said "surely someone can say something nice about this man!" One man at the back of the synagogue raised his hand and said "his brother was worse." [/quote]
