There are some things that work for me; but not every day and not in every way. Some days I fly on angels' wings; on others, I am the serpent's seed, eating dust as I slither from pillar to post. <br /><br />When in doubt I turn to the first chapter of Genesis. There I find a genius, who anticipated Einstein by thousands of years. I also find there a caring G-d, willing to share this knowledge and patient enough to occasionally fill in the blanks over the millennia. Like Rambam, I accept a G-d without gender, form, or any human attribute whatsoever - although "He" :-) speaks in the language of men.<br /><br />For these I strive:<br /><a href="http://www.ou.org/torah/rambam.htm" rel="nofollow">Thirteen</a><br /><br />Enoughallenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01798524644256471907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-80519438957652545212010-12-14T14:32:57.547-05:002010-12-14T14:32:57.547-05:00Allen: Some years ago, I lost what I thought the m...Allen: <i>Some years ago, I lost what I thought the most significant thing in my life.
