Philosopher, there are compelling arguments for the divinity of the Torah, but there are also compelling arguments against.
Like what?
If you are talking about Eisav soneih yaakov, its actually Yishmael in this day and age.
First of all, not all Muslims are of Arabic descedants. In any case the Torah clearly says that if we won’t follow Hashem’s will we will be at the mercy of our enemies.
We know from the Torah that that’s what golus is. Being hated and persecuted by the nations.
<e>I’m not sure what your #2 means – because we still follow laws they are applicable? There are other religions that still follow their laws and customs, many years later.
I precisly mentioned tens of laws per day not some laws and customs.
The tribes in the jungle have customs dating back to who knows when as do all major religions. But which religion would people still follow if they had to adhere every moment of there lives to numerous laws?
From when we arise to when we go to sleep, every moment of our lives in dictated by halacha dating back to har Sinai.
The amish have even lower rates
The Amish have much smaller communities than the frum, hence the lower rates.
To be honest, those are the weakest “logical” proofs I’ve ever heard.
That’s fantastic. What are the strongest logical proofs that you’ve heard?
