In The Sanctity of Human Life, Jewish theologian David Novak acknowledges that it is impossible not to take into account the theological view of human life, but the challenge is how to present the religious perspective to nonreligious people. In doing so, he shows that the two positionsthe theological and the philosophicalaren't as far apart as they may seem. Novak digs deep into Jewish scripture and tradit.
