thought id share this
Not long after turning off BG1, and doing some reading in something unrelated, i read this:
"The Hasidic writers placed special emphasis on the "forgotten realms" of simple and insignificant action, and Hasidim's transformation of them into vehicles for the sacred was one of the most original aspects of the moment" Gershom Scholem, essay entitled "Martin Buber's Interpretation of Hasidism" from "The Messianic Idea in Judaism"
Coincidence? Granted Ive been playing BG for weeks, but how often does the phrase "forgotten realms" come up outside DnD context? And doubly coincidental, reading a line ABOUT folks finding spiritual significance in the everyday. What could be more "insignificant" then playing a PC game?
