nobody understands wtf it says, but in his case that's secondary to knowing which numbers it encodes

oh that's not fair, we've got most of it, but i do enjoy the bits of lost knowledge like what a takhash is (so you can just translate it as "badger" or "unicorn" or whatever you like)

look, buddy, you did this to yourself so you don't have an excuse for why you polluted your mind with the worst kind of monotheism the upside of it is that it's so bad that Jews had to invent atheism to deal with it

i just couldn't understand why anyone would want to be a part of a religious organization that was primarily legalistic and didn't seem to offer much in the way of affirming mythologies or liberation

rabbinical judaism is legalistic, and a lot of that is very long lingering influence of the deuteronomists, but as a legal code it's so full of holes and so subject (and in need of) contextual interpretation that in practice it's not legalistic, it's theocratic

the lack of a liberation theology is a much more interesting question and I ought to read up on that. The Exodus myth partially fills the role there though, so it's not completely absent as such. It's not personal liberation though, it's actually proto-nationalism.

from what i'm told Reconstructionist Judaism and Posadism both feature a prominent role for The Space Comrades, maybe they should get together
