The Finger of G-d: Divine Order Vs. Science
If you are like most people, you’re probably of the mind that logic is above human biased. This is to say, that if there is anything in the world that is universally binding, it is logic. Logic is after all, “Logic.” It is ostensibly the objective and indisputable truth, upon which all reality is predicated. Logic and its immediate offshoot, “Science,” might as well be Divine. Nothing is perceived to be more revered and more sacred.

Open Letter: When the Dust Settles
In an open letter to Oholei Torah, a parent asks: When the dust settles and the fad of the Shofer is permanently behind us, what is the takeaway for the future?
