Torah lessons: Curtosy of Chabad.org
Chassidus Chabad opens the gates to the chambers of Chochma and Bina, enabling one to know and to recognize - with intellectual comprehension - "He who spoke and the world came into being. (1)
It awakens the feelings of the heart so that it is aroused with the emotion engendered by that particular intellectual comprehension. (2)
And Chassidus Chabad shows the way that each individual - commensurate with his innate abilities - can "approach the Sacred," to serve G-d with his mind and heart.
Footnotes: (1) See Siddur p. 30, line 37 (Baruch She'amar); compare
Tehillim 33:9.
(2) Of G-d. A specific intellectual contemplation arouses
(or engenders) a specific emotion related to it.

Science & G-d
-------------
In the nineteenth century, many scientists had no use for G-d. Instead, they worshipped a tight chain of cause and effect that left no room for miracles, providence or prophecy.
But then the scientist looked into the atom and the wonder of the universe opened before him. The iron chain of cause and effect was loosened and Determinism deposed from its throne. Today, once again there is room for G-d in the minds of men.
