Road Trip
On the way home from Manning Park.
We took a trip up to Manning Park for the weekend. It was a fairly dreary couple of days, weather wise. We stayed at The Last Resort with a small crowd from our synagogue. There were a lot of young children which kept the noise and energy levels up, but the 3 of us survived even though Shula came close to not sleeping the second night. We’re blaming that on over stimulation from her many admirers.
Tonight, it seems we’re back to the normal routine (as dictated by the two month old) which means everyone is asleep except for me.
I had a short discussion with the rabbi about faith and the many biblical inconsistencies that seem apparent when you consider an omnipotent and omniscient God. There were two parts to the discussion: 1) Faith in a god and 2) the leap from that to belief that the Torah is true and God as Judaism understand Him exists. I hope to write about that in the future but I’m out of energy now.
On that note, I shall retire to bed.
