Thanks Chabad.org for segments of this great series! As one trained in Greek classics I love hearing such clear Torah responses to questions that arise from the Greek philosophical perspective.

There are people who are free of mitzvot, they are connected to G-d but not through their work, just by their existance.

I am what I know??? Chas ve Shalom! -
May be after a frew years I get Alzheimer desease. Than I know nothing. But that does not mean I am nothing. I have a neshama, G-d breathed into me, when He created me. And that neshama is my most important part and will go back to my creator when He calls me. To really have a relationship with God, means I love Him. (Its written in the Shema.)
