About Me
- s(b.)
- Nassau County, NY (raised in the woods of western Jersey), United States
- Welcome. I'm Sarah. I like doing volunteer dental assistant work, pirkei avot, judo, classical Asian medicine, copy editing, making/ assembling stuff, playing outside and learning new things. I don't sit around thinking about religion all the time; this blog was started because I didn't feel like writing about it in places where people who aren't interested receive my posts automatically. It was inspired in part by long comments I kept writing on Frum Satire and other jblogs, where I posted as s(b.).

I'm sorry, but this is weak. God is feeling "compassion?" For Leiby, who was brutally murdered? For his parents, whose world has been shattered? Exactly how are we seeing this compassion? And how are platitudes like "don't judge Judaism by individual Jews" supposed to help? How should we judge Judaism? By some unquantifiable "light" that we're supposed to disseminate? At this point, calling God "compassionate" seems like an insult. The kindest think you could possibly say about Him today is that He's just not involved.
