Description

We discuss the different opinions as to minimum daily amount of Torah Study, and whether that allows for other subjects of Study. Then we dive into a controversial debate between the Rabbis and Gentile Scientists about the structure of the Universe. Along the way, we discuss Kri'at Shema, Ashkenazim vs. Sefardim, the Power of Habit and more.
