Hashkama Minyan - Rabbi Blanchard's Blog

• We human beings are, I believe, wired for seeking transcendence--wired to grow toward what is higher. As children we naturally look up to adults and seek to become adults ourselves. Actually, growing up is something we continue to do all of our lives--if we are lucky and motivated to do so. As people , we seek, individually and in groups, not only greater knowledge of our world but also greater control of it. To a great extent, modernity is built on this idea. Is there a danger of hubris [excessive pride or self-confidence] in doing this? Is it right for us to seek " to be as gods"? An old question worth asking again and again.
