If I had to collect all the information / wisdom of the past, all the words and more importantly thoughts, the bottom line is very simple – as our sages teach, “Science from Gentiles you may learn, but never Torah/truth/the meaning of life” – for all gentile wisdom falls into either, in the case say of jihad, antisemitisim – hate – in the case of politics – self-interest (on the whole) in the case of worldviews – accommodating one’s instinctual passions – While the Jewish saints teach, that the truth, Torah, meaning in life, is precisely in the opposite: letting go of your desires and allowing God’s wisdom to be you
