[Avodah] Challenge: Finding Spirituality w/o Qabbalah

[T613K at aol.com]

From: rabbirichwolpoe at gmail.com
>>My friend's thesis is that  Judaism w/o Qabbalah or Hassidus is mechanical
and lifeless.

And so he  challenged me as follows: To List aspects of Jewish Spirituality
that were  devoid of Qaballah or Hassidus.

I came up with my own list.

Any  other takers out there?<<

 
 
>>>>>
I don't know about a "list" but Sefer Tehillim and Shir Hashirim would  
seem to negate your friend's thesis.  Are these dry and "lifeless" halachic  
tomes?  Not spiritual?  Devoid of love, simcha, yearning and  inspiration?
