    You’re very welcome!

    Fun fact, you’ll meet plenty of Jews who are atheistic as well. There’s a running joke in the community “ahh yes the time honored Jewish tradition of atheism.”

    Without getting too personal, I’m actually agnostic. At least I think that’s the proper term. I don’t wonder if God exists, I wonder if it matters if God exists.

      That is funny - “the time honored Jewish tradition of atheism.” X ). I’m actually more agnostic myself, but my atheist friends think I’m just “hedging my bet” by not committing. It isn’t so much that I am on the fence, but rather, that I have always had an unshakable sense that something larger and greater in power (but unknowable to us) IS out there - not sure what to call it, and whether someone calls it god or not, there is a force to be reckoned with that is overarching and shaping the universe, which to me is something that matters.

      Thanks for your feedback I really enjoy it.
