In his recent book, Absurdity and Meaning in Contemporary Philosophy and 黑料社 Thought, Dr. Alan L. Mittleman, Aaron Rabinowitz and Simon H.

Mittleman demonstrates that both philosophy and Judaism are prone to ineliminable doubts and perplexities, and far from preempting a conversation, they promote honest dialogue.
