OPINION & COMMENT It is still a long time until the elections in the middle of May, but it is not likely that a more dramatic moment will arise than the Saturday night firing of Defense Minister Yitzchak Mordechai by Prime Minister Netanyahu. Science and the Borei Olom We are living in interesting times. Scientists are beginning again to speak openly and seriously about the existence of a Creator. The revolution has been long in the making. But many of the pieces, which have been falling into place for decades, are coming to a head. Can A High School Offer Students the Best of Both Worlds? This article was written by one who has served as a shaliach of gedolei Yisroel for many years in the campaign against yeshivot tichoniyot (Israeli yeshiva high schools). Man is Like a Tree: The Foundation
and the Root "The foundation of chassidus and the root of G-dly
service . . . " begins the Mesilas Yeshorim. The
attribute of chassidus, in that context, is a
structure, and, therefore, requires a foundation, whereas
`service' is a growth, and requires roots.
Easy Conversion is an Escape from
Judaism, Not a Way In Continued attempts by various compromisers to find
possibilities of cooperation with the Reform and Conservative
continue to make headlines in Israel.
About Torah, Science and
Monkeys To the Editor:
I didn't see Part I of "Monkeys and Typewriters" (Joshua
Josephson, 27 Teves), but one gets the impression that Mr.
Josephson sees science, or certain scientific assertions, as
a threat to the Torah, and he is presenting logical arguments
against these assertions, and in favor of Torah.
