Why do you think Judaism is the right religion?

There are many reasons. One, because it makes a claim to mass revelation whereas other religions claim private revelation. Two, because its survival in the world despite massive challenges seems almost impossible without divine intervention, cf also the return to Israel and the prevalence of near constant antisemitism (and survival of the same) for similar themes. Three, because the two largest and most popular world religions attest to the truth of Judaism. Four, because very smart Jews have believed in it for thousands of years I'm not going to be the schmuck to decide I know better. Five, because it encourages debate and inquiry - there is no insecurity that it could fall apart under some tough questioning. Six, because due to that ongoing inquiry there is always some scholar/thinker who has looked at any question I may have, and lots of material to engage my thinking on said question.
