The Orthoprax Rabbi's Blog. The Musings of an Atheist Rabbi of an Orthodox Congregation. Newer posts →. July 22, 2010.

Identity | The Orthoprax Rabbi's Blog

The Orthoprax Rabbi's Blog. The Musings of an Atheist Rabbi of an Orthodox Congregation. Back To School →. August 10, 2010. But what happens if something changes?

My Yom Kippur Speech | The Orthoprax Rabbi's Blog

The Orthoprax Rabbi's Blog. The Musings of an Atheist Rabbi of an Orthodox Congregation. PURIM and What Comes After →. My Yom Kippur Speech. September 16, 2010. Below is the speech I would like to give this Yom Kippur, but cannot, at least to my congregation. We end Yom Kippur and for many a highlight of the day, by proclaiming. God – what is it? We all recognize that God is a non-corporal, and therefore an other worldly being(? Or thing. Rambam concedes that we will. What is a God that means Nothing?

The Orthoprax Rabbi's Blog. The Musings of an Atheist Rabbi of an Orthodox Congregation. My Yom Kippur Speech →. September 7, 2010. Second, I wanted to address something that was raised a while back, regarding ritual. The question was essentially, what meaning or purpose does an Orthoprax person find in Jewish ritual? As I need to return to my regularly scheduled duties, I will sign off for now – to all, a happy and healthy New Year and enjoy those rituals. This entry was posted in High Holidays. Atheism...
