I follow and enjoy your blog and essays. I came across a website that I am finding interesting and useful on Judaism. You may have encountered it, and no doubt know of many other such references. Give the number of postings you have written on what folks say about one another, I thought one of the articles on this site might interest you. My first reaction was, ‘I have a lot to learn from this..’

The website is www.jewfaq.org and the specific article deals with Lashon Ha-Ra, literally ‘the evil tongue’, what we might refer to as gossip and slander.

Thanks for your always encouraging and entertaining blog.

Cordially,

You give me a lot more credit that I’m worth in terms of familiarity with Judaism on the web. But thanks for the link!
