Good interview. <BR/><BR/>He said that in order to avoid the law against sitting where a woman who was in her "unclean" time had sat he took to carrying around a folding chair. His wife would purposely go around and sit in every chair in the house during that "period" so that he wouldn't be able to. <BR/><BR/>He also found out that the Kosher law against eating milk and dairy together comes from the prohibition against boiling a kid (baby goat) in its mother's milk. It's amazing how much like the Pharisees he had become, building a proverbial fence around the laws so he wouldn't break them.Scott Rochehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00788985125689041363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-86123029640739493862007-10-10T14:32:00.000-05:002007-10-10T14:32:00.000-05:00HS bonking.. lol.. a new phrase in my repetoire :)...HS bonking.. lol.. a new phrase in my repetoire :)<BR/><BR/>Look forward to a book report when you are done with the book TZ.kc bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17440862813109808755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749955731953911627.post-18097470832395678482007-10-10T09:17:00.000-05:002007-10-10T09:17:00.000-05:00His Encyclopedia book was very amusing.

You can see him skirt religion, while admiring it from afar (or what he thinks it is), in a very thorough way.<BR/><BR/>I can see where he'd miss the point here, but he's essentially a good guy who just needs to be bonked over the head by the Holy Spirit.<BR/><BR/>I'll read his book.Therese Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03925404067634150968noreply@blogger.com
