My proof is that everything within the Torah is brilliant. All the mitzvot make such beautiful, perfect sense. I know with certanity that if I managed to keep all the mitzvot perfectly and I lived in a society that did as well, I would live the absolute happiest life possible.

I went off for a few years because the BY education I was given would twist and manipulate the Torah using this random perush and skipping that concept to make it more fluffy and appealing. I came back because I discovered the Torah in it’s naked truth and I recognize that there is nothing more genius than the Torah.

That is not proof.

Don’t get me wrong — if you believe the perfection of the mitzvos gives you greater spritual fulfillment and a greater kesher to HKBH — that’s beautiful — all the more power to you. That’s a wonderful thing and halevai more people should feel as you do. But it’s not a proof that the Torah is Min HaShamayim.
