my grandfather, whos a brilliant engineer intellectual jew type, gave me a TON of books on jewish thoughts and ideas. he does not believe in god or attend temple anymore (hes a man of science, and thinks of religion as war, thats it), but he still studies torah and studies judiasm as a philosophy. he gave me a ton of books by various jewish thinkers to read, ive read a couple, and though bored at times, found myself very interested, learing about my heritage and such. this one book he gave me, 'this is my god', ny herman wouk (one of my favorite writers anyways), has been sitting next to my bed for a year, and i still have yet to open it. anyways, im gonna try to read it now thanks to this thread, peace.
