 So where are we at with it all?
//
Why, I never know with myself much less with anyone else.
//
It's all a state of "flux", seems like to me. With that, though, I'm personally not into arguments on "religious" "minutiae".
//
Just "do something" and clue me in. I can rate "action" in terms of "progress" much better than I can the dialogue aspect, which would involve so-called "religious issues"; this side is often a little too scary to me.
//
Beyond this kind of sideline-esque-ness, my intermingling with other Noahides has been minimal, for better or for worse.
//
Really, with my schooling unfolding as it is, this portion of my life has been slightly "suspended". It needs to go back into a review process; however, that is often frustrating each time I work to "take it up" again.
//
How simple is this "thing"? How complicated does it need to be? If I'm told one way or another about one thing or another, how will I "take" the info; moreover, if i "take it (the info) up", then how will I transmit it to others? I'm something of a minimalist Noahide in this regard. I despise reiterating my non-Jewishness as much as I have to insist on my non-cultishness. I'm also a little lazy with the whole thing, though, to be perfectly honest.
//
I grew up as a Noahide. I've "been a Noahide" since I could speak, virtually. Doesn't make me any better than any other Noahide in any which way. Does make me a little curious about the range and reactions evident among the lot of us, though.
//
With that, having been "this" for so long, I can't help but realize my evident lack of "progress" as regards the "whole thing", meaning "it in its entirety".
//
"Religion" and politics are dangerous topics of conversation anyway, and I hate commenting on fluxuations in my directedness with the whole thing, especially when I'm not as "into it" as I'd like to be (maybe, even, as I "need to be"?), where "into it" can be anything from "being knee-jerk" to, at the very least, being more "involved".
//
The common ground readily available to we Noahides is a rough road of travel altogether, if we're meant to go "together", which is, I think, a major presupposition to these laws and their intended structure.
//
That is, if any one of us, much less the lot of us, can even make out the correct path to follow; how clearly is it defined? Where does it lead? What does one do? And how best can we reconstruct this path together, defining its limits, anticipating its trajectory, especially when "authority" is such a suspect word in our conversation (and that rightly so)?
//
I suspect many people who call themselves Noahides are a bit "off the beaten path" as regards the whole thing, but who am "I" to "talk"? Me, I'm just "stalled at the (path's) gate" at present, waiting for.... (?) ....
