This reminds me of a story about r...Very happy. ;)<br /><br />This reminds me of a story about <a href="http://www.thejewishweek.com/jewish_life/sabbath_week/halacha_not_decided_heaven" rel="nofollow">rabbis arguing over whether a particular oven kind of oven can be considered kosher</a>. <br /><br />According to the Torah, a majority of rabbis would determine whether or not something was kosher. However, the most respected Rabbi of the time, Rabbi Eliezer, presents his argument that it is kosher. Despite this, the majority of rabbis still vote to overrule him and say it isn't.<br /><br />Then there are a succession of "divine signs" indicating that it is kosher. The majority of rabbis still say it isn't kosher.<br /><br />Finally, God himself thunders from the Heavens, "it's kosher!"<br /><br />The rabbis then point to the part of the Torah that says whether something is kosher or not has to be determined by a majority of the rabbis -- not by Rabbi Eliezer, not by divine signs, and not by God. And they say it is not kosher.<br /><br />God's reaction? He laughs and says, "My children have defeated me!"Butchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00470617214750867482noreply@blogger.com
