    aussie: sadly, in our world today THAT quote at least is backwards. We have to never let our learning get in the way of our education.

    looks like aussie’s more pro torah than squeak is.

    I never let my SECULAR education get in the way of my TORAH learning.

    right, auss?

    Actually, what I said is as pro torah as you can get.

    moish, I certainly didn’t mean to let SECULAR education come before TORAH learning. What I meant was that learning should not be about covering ground (e.g. I learn for 12 hours a day, so I am the best) but about becoming educated in the ways of the Torah – its writ, its applications and guidelines, and its relevance. Far be it from me to push my personal hashkofos on anyone here. I am merely saying that the term “learning” is far too shallow to apply to Torah.

    aussie, I thought it was, “When life hands you lemons, make lemonade.” Or the other one, “When life hands you lemons, throw them at someone!”
