Reply To: Are You An Apikores?

Jospeh and golfer:
The point of this thread is not for me to decide who is or is not a true believer, or any such finger-pointing and name-calling (although I am aware that this is a common side effect of CR threads). The point was for all of to take a long, hard look in the mirror and figure out to what extent we acknowledge that Hashem runs every aspect of our lives, and to what extent we labor under the false pretense that כחי ועצם ידי is what got us where we are. And as Avraham in MD pointed out, I’m far from perfect in this regard myself (as is true in most other regards) .

Yes, I could have called this thread “Do you have strong Bitochon” or something similar, but then how many comments do you think there would be here? Controversy is what keeps people interested.
