Travelling: New York (1)

Learning

J is hoping to study at Drisha next year, so we arranged to attend some classes there to get a feel for the place. It's a pretty amazing institution; basically, it offers a serious level of Jewish education for Orthodox women, and is well aware of the ramifications of doing so. I was very much hanging on to J's coat-tails, and I am really, really pleased that she gave me the opportunity to experience Jewish study at this sort of level. Wow!

I must say though, it's been a long time since I've used my brain that intensely, and it felt so good!

More interesting theological wibblings

This very interesting discussion on scripture and fundamentalism is languishing at the bottom of what by now is a very old thread in shreena's journal, so I thought I'd bring it back to the limelight by linking to it again. Fun.
