Matir Asurim: Amidah - part 12 - "Minnim"
http://matir-asurim.blogspot.com/2012/08/amidah-part-12-minnim.html
Special needs adoption from a Jewish perspective. Special needs adoption from a Jewish perspective. Friday, August 3, 2012. Amidah - part 12 - "Minnim". Is a bit complicated. It is believed to have been introduced after the inception of Christianity, and partly in response to it:. Since Christianity splits the identity of G*d into the Trinity, it represented a form of heresy. To mainstream Judaism. There have been many others since then. How timely in this season of political and religious conflict!

Touched on the futility of blame, whether directed towards others or to oneself. More thinking and talking about self-blame, or guilt/shame, made me realize that the concept of responsibility is muddled with the concept of guilt. Now, certainly there is a connection between the two: If someone is guilty. We hold them responsible. Check out the Power Cafe!

Monthly writings in and around mathematics by James Propp. How To Be Wrong. To be wrong, or not to be wrong? That is the wrong question. You are going to spend a lot of your time being wrong, especially if you become a scientist or mathematician. The question is, are you going to do it. Whom I’ve written about before. These mathematicians and others were quoted verbatim in Mark Haddon’s novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time as examples of pomposity linked to unclear thinking. End re...
