The full text of Einstein’s essay appeared under the title “What I Believe” in Forum and Century 84 (October 1930), no. 4, p. 193-194. David E. Rowe and Robert Schulman (in Einstein on Politics 2007, p. 226) note, “The text was reproduced several times under the title ‘The World as I See It,’ most notably in Mein Weltbild and Ideas and Opinions, and in 1932 the German League of Human Rights released a phonograph recording of Einstein reading a slightly variant version entitled ‘Confession of Belief.'” Categories: Labor, Fulfillment, and Parnasah, 🇺🇸 National Brotherhood Week Readings, 🌐 International Workers' Day (May 1st), 🤦︎ Taḥanun (Nefilat Apayim), 🌐 Human Rights Day (December 10th) Tags: 20th century C.E., 57th century A.M., anti-fascist, cosmic religion, democracy, determinism, חתימות ḥatimot (concluding prayers), Openers Contributor(s): “Repentance” is the thirty-sixth prayer in the “Meditations” section of the Union Home Prayer Book (CCAR 1951), p. 200.
