Mr. Spock was the character on Star Trek.   Dr. Spock was a pediatrician that wrote a book about child care...

"Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal."

"I love God only as much as the person I love the least."

Never let an oppurtunity to correct someone go by!

Kinda like the Dems principle of never letting a good crisis go to waste.

 

You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.

I certainly was not criticizing Jews. Leonard Nimoy (Mr. Spock) told a fascinating story which I thought to share. I do enjoy many tales fron Jewish tradition and the experiences of Jews today. I think I mentioned here before that I for many years attended a conservative temple and studied Hebrew for some time.
