#109 - Determinism and Tefilah

In this episode we conclude looking at Spinoza’s philosophy of Determinism, and the Torah response to this idea. One of the broad life phenomenon that reflects man’s free will is the quest for the morality and moral perfection. How broad is this phenomenon? 

  One of the other places we see man’s free will is via prayer, and the basic challenge of having proper intention when praying. What is the basic structure of having proper intentions? Are there parts of Shemone Esray that are more important to have intention?
