Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, falls this week. That choice mirrors the courage Yom Kippur demands and shows how timeless religious wisdom can still shape civic virtue today. … It answers hate with a refusal-to-hate, animosity with generosity.” That is the logic of Yom Kippur: confession, repentance, forgiveness, and renewal. That is the hope Yom Kippur extends; that no matter how badly one has failed, the door back is never locked. Yom Kippur gives us the chance to reset.
