This, from the man who says that the Jewish question about evil isn't
"Why?" but "How does G-d call on me to respond?" In Qol Dodi Dofeiq
(where I also got the above idea), he bedavka rejects the whole effort
of trying to answer tzadiq vera lo, saying all such efforts would either
be emotionally cold or intellectually dishonest, and likely both.
