The Jewish Book of Why

This is one of the main problems with some religions for a questioning mind. I was the same and haven’t changed as I’ve aged :wink:

When my full time education came to an end, I made myself the promise that I would study something new every year - and I have kept that promise. Sometimes the subjects have been academic, sometimes arty/crafty, sometimes practical skills - I just love to learn - I love the hoops the brain jumps through to aquire knowledge.

Another of my threads moved without the courtesy of telling me why!
I won’t bother to start any more - maybe I’ll just sit and write “The First Book of Forum Why” !!

An excellent read. My understanding has always been that the delivery and Law itself has been a heavily debated topic. Having read this article, I understand why. You and your wife’s approach was very similar to my parents’. We were introduced to the Jewish faith, Islam, Catholicism, Buddhism and a few others so we could make informed choices in carving out our own paths. I appreciated that approach and am sure your children do too.

ST, this a a really interesting subject. I haven’t read the book, but see that introducing the customs might encourage people to dive a little deeper. A very good share. Thank you!

Book Two arrived today - it delves a little deeper into Jewish Law. Just had a quick dip into it so far - am busy making an 80th Birthday card - but am looking forward to exploring it later.

It’s not Religion that is the cause of the wars, it is a person or group who try to hide their quest for power, money and fame in the name of Religion.
I have other names for the person or group but they are not suitable to write on the forum.
