David Horowitz died at age 99 seven years ago today, October 27, 2002. I spent this afternoon at the UI offices thinking about his life, the past seven years and the remarkable events that have transpired and how utterly thrilled and excited he would have been to have seen his mission and vision, drawn so directly from the Hebrew Prophets, now take wings through a reestablished UIWU, the publication of Restoring Abrahamic Faith as a lovely book, and the activities through Roots of Faith and the SWW that Ross Nichols has pioneered. I lit one of the original candles I had saved from his NJ cottage and spent some time meditating on it all.
A nice way of remembering David might be to revisit his remarkable biography which you can find at:

I can also attach it as a PDF file for those of you who might want it as a more permanent file on your own computer.
Shalom to all,
James Tabor on a rainy, cloudy, day in Charlotte…
