Truth with a Capital "T" - Danger or Gift? / Rabbi Zvi Hirschfield

Together we will explore the role truth plays in our connection to the beliefs and practices of Judaism and our Jewish identity.  Is it important to believe that the claims Judaism makes about God, history, and values are true, or is it enough that we claim them as our own? Moreover, can believing one's religion to be true lead to extremism?
