He admits to abandoning most Jewish religious practices but claims to retain a continued desire to learn about the religion. He explains that religious as well as philosophical studies affect his medical practice and his speeches. He says that his background places “an indirect coloring on every answer.”
He will occasionally let the odd Yiddish expression slip out, or use a reference to “God” as a metaphor for evolutionary adaptations or natural processes. For example, he frequently refers to the massive surge in libido women often experience during the third trimester of pregnancy as “one of God’s great practical jokes on humanity.”
