BERLIN – A Jew who escaped from a sinking ship swims to a desert island and lives there for 10 years, until another ship finds him by chance. He gives his rescuers a tour of the island and shows them proudly the two synagogues he built. Why two, they ask – you’re here alone. “This is the synagogue where I go to pray,” he replies, ”and in that synagogue I will never set foot.”
