I realize that we could be missing each other completely. I humbly suggest that this topic works the other way. You can think anything. Nobody else knows what is in your head. The sugya is not what must I believe, but what do we believe. So the question is not what is my obligation or exemption. But what am I gaining insight into, versus what am I missing out on. Sure, one can follow some witless academic into a systemized construct that needs no Ikkrim at all. But that follower will lose out on much of the breadth and depth of our heritage. Besides for that academic possibly being an apekorus and missing out on both worlds.
In light of this, what points the Rambam to respond to Taku. Of course there is grounds to say that God is corporeal. But that is not what we Jews think. So what is there to gain?
