I am grateful for the many comments I got yesterday. There was one I particularly want to share with all of you. It is an article written by a rabbinical student. Go to www.jewishexponent.com/article/20593. I hope you can copy and paste the address. It is a wonderful piece about a recent interfaith experience. I wish we could all commment on it.
Some of you noted the expression "Shit happens." Jean reminded us of the words of Elie Weisel, Jewish theologian and philosopher. When he faced the question, "How could a good God permit the holocoust"?, he realized that God did not cause it, but suffered it with each one of the victims.
Is God capable of suffering? Is God really in the middle of our shit?
