<p><b>New page</b></p><div>One of my favorite things about the wiki is that there's no going back, there's only going forward. Once you've put something up here, it is in the logs, and it can be restored. I restored this because I think it is an important and insightful expression of some very deeply held beliefs.<br />
<br />
I want to say, first, in response, that I agree more that I can aptly express. Grateful do I feel that you will be adding your moral/ethical/scriptural insight to our project and my life. We will need the strength. As it says in Exodus 15:2 'The lord is my strength and my song, he has become my salvation.' There is great wisdom, eons of wisdom, in the tradition of the book. It is wisdom that I hope to approach with humility and openness.<br />
<br />
All this being said, I think it is critically, critically important that there be not even a shred of exclusivity in our ideology, not an iota of condescension or guilt in our approach. This is a movement for all people, regardless of gender, race, creed, or station. Just because Judaism has for so long played the role of the zero (as opposed to the one), does not in any way invalidate or delegitimize the suffering and struggle of all those that have been oppressed by the fundamental binary. What I mean to say is that we should position ourself, finally, simply as the zero, as the nothing, as the humble servant of god, and glean knowledge of God's glory wherever it presents itself. I believe very strongly that this glory manifests itself in each and every one of us. I imagine that Jake feels the same.<br />
<br />
In some way, I understand why you thought twice about posting this in such a public way. I am here to say that this type of thinking belongs here, even if it can only be a part of what we endeavor to build.</div>imported>Isaac
