In Good Faith: Questioning Religion & Atheism Parts 1 & 2
Listen now
Description

I was impressed with this book's author in that he does exactly that. Admittedly, many famous atheists pepper their arguments with a good deal of venom. Scott handles this tactic well. Scott Shay is the co-founder and Chairman of Signature Bank, well known as one of the best banks in New York for private business owners. He earned a BA in Economics and a Masters in Management from Northwestern University Scott is a distinguished leader in the Jewish community and an avid student of religion and its application to the world outside of the synagogue, church, or mosque. In addition to ‘In Good Faith’ Scott Shay is the author of Conspiracy U and Getting Our Groove Back: How to Energize American Jewry. Scott lives in New York City.
