You're still in prison. You feel imaginary bars of iron pressing against you, a heavy weight on your heart. Being Jewish oppresses you. You have paid dearly for the privilege of being a Jew, losing your entire family, your career, almost your life; you think that enough is enough. It would have been much easier if your grandparents had converted to Christianity!
You turn to a pastor of a Calvinist church and ask that he instruct you in Christianity. For a year, he teaches you once a week, telling you about Jesus, sin, and forgiveness. You are not sure that you believe in what he says, but, if that is what it takes to escape being Jewish, you are willing to agree. Finally, you are accepted as a convert, and you become a Christian.
The church helps you purchase a booth near the railroad station, where you sell newspapers, magazines, cigarettes, and other small items. You have certainly not become a success, but you are sure that your children will not have the same handicap that nearly cost your life.
