Stu Halpern, senior adviser to the provost, speaks with Dr. Michel Rosenfeld, University Professor of Law and Comparative Democracy; Justice Sydney L. Robins Professor of Human Rights; and Director of the Program on Global and Comparative Constitutional Theory at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. They discuss “The Conscience Wars: Rethinking the Balance Between Religion, Identity and Equality,” a book co-edited by Rosenfeld and Susanna Mancini, the Chair of Comparative Constitutional Law at the University of Bologna School of Law.

Dr. Daniel Rynhold - Nietzsche, Soloveitchik and Contemporary Jewish Philosophy

Dr. Daniel Rynhold, professor in modern Jewish philosophy at the Bernard Revel Graduate School of Jewish Studies, director of the Revel doctoral program and director of the Schottenstein Honors Program at Yeshiva College, discusses Nietzsche, Soloveitchik, and Contemporary Jewish Philosophy, co-written with Michael J. Harris, with Rabb Dr. Stu Halpern, senior adviser to the provost. In their discussion, Dr. Rynhold touches upon how Rabbi Jospeh Soloveitchik's effort to find the meaning of faith in the world was sharpened by having to confront Friedrich Nietzsche's savage critique of Christian theology. Though coming from opposed points of view, both men were committed to finding out how to craft a life that had meaning and value.

Join Stephen Tobolowsky, actor, director, and author of many books including "My Adventures with God," as he sits down at Yeshiva University with Jordyn Kaufman to discuss his journey with faith, the value behind having doubts about God, praying on the road, embracing the past to look to the future, his life in Hollywood, and what makes a story successful- much like the one he tells here.
