I contacted him and interviewed him for my blog: <a href="http://zippy1300.blogspot.com/2010/02/i-see-by-snailpapers-that-walter-arnold.html" rel="nofollow">I SEE BY THE SNAILPAPERS</a>.<br /><br />He kindly answered in Internet time and here's our report. When we told Walter that we first read about him from our cave here in Taiwan, where news travels slowly all the time, it's 1958 here for example, he told us:<br /><br />"Thanks for letting me know about the rabbi's blog. It was a really enjoyable flight and enjoyable discussion we had on board. The <a href="http://rabbijason.com>rabbi</a> told me a lot about the Detroit Jewish community; my wife and I spent a weekend there about a dozen years ago when my daughter participated in the Maccabee Games there, and he was able to tell me about the families we'd met at the time."Danny in Taiwanhttp://zippy1300.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003330.post-76494752124345743512010-02-08T13:45:12.687-05:002010-02-08T13:45:12.687-05:00Come on Rabbi, you are a RABBI!

How can you hide such a thing especially when assimilation is at such a high rate? You must do all in your power to promote Jewish life to Jews and bring Godliness into this world to both Jews and Non-Jews. Being a Rabbi is not a 9-5 profession. It is a life long calling (as I am sure you felt when you first went to Rabbinical school). Being a Rabbi is a way of life lived 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Keep up your good work and build upon it even more! Spread the Light so that the ultimate Jewish goal of bringing Moshiach and the redemption occurs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003330.post-62766110316810498652010-01-10T21:57:41.400-05:002010-01-10T21:57:41.400-05:00I'm no rabbi, but I've worked in conservat...I'm no rabbi, but I've worked in conservative synagogues for over seven years. This dilemma is a challenging one. Makes me sometimes wonder what the Hassids get asked. I think as traditional Hebs we can answer questions that might otherwise not get answered or that otherwise might not get asked keeping myths and misconceptions alive. I remember... See More a time when a child in a preschool that rented our synagogue building during the mornings who once pointed at me and started laughing and, through her giggles, said "that man's wearing a Frisbee!!!"Roland Rothnoreply@blogger.com
