Applying a pharisaical twist to Torah denies you its benefits. That is your inheritance.

Don’t do fringes on the corners of your garments? How about mezzuzah... when you “write THEM on the doorposts of your house and upon your gates...” What do you write? How do you write it? What kind of pen? Or ink? You get my drift? What you hold is absurd...that G-d’s Torah is abrogated. His word isn’t eternally true?

And yup, it’s your inheritance. Imagine, the King of Kings gives YOU a commandment...even if it’s to dig a hole and fill it in again...you do it! Your status in Judaism is that of a “Child who was captured.” You were never nurtured as a Jew. Ok, you don’t have to blaze a trail. Others have been there. I don’t envy your challenge, but a JEWISH expression translates to, “G-d doesn’t give one a test that he cannot pass.” Good luck.
