But it's about different kinds of belief and ways of practice, and against funda- mentalisms of all kinds. A: My rabbi is not a modern guy. He's very old-fashioned. He's not an intellectual - his relationship with religion is very down-to-earth. He doesn't really care about God's exis- tence. He just cares about what he has to do every day. I like the idea of his coming back from Paris and saying that he doesn't know if there's a God or not, and then he goes to pray. Many people forget about this relationship to religion as a daily practice. But I've always preferred the sayings of my grandma to the dic- tates of my grand rabbin.0 Baked Salmon Dinner 13.99 14.99 15.99 Aht Carte Menu Q: So I guess the choice of comic books as a medium - A: That's my language. But it's use- ful. Rabbi's Cat? A: I feared they would hate it. But I had many letters of congratulation, especially from wives of rabbis. The head of the French rabbinate even sent my publisher a certificate proclaiming my rabbi to be an official rabbi of the French community. And he told me that my characters' criticisms of reli- gion are exactly what rabbis wait for a good pupil to do. In a yeshiva, if a pupil doesn't criti- cize the text he's just bad. Because, they say, the law is stronger than you. Your role is to fight against the law to make it even stronger. And I don't consider Judaism to be something fragile - for me it's not like a crystal glass. I can give it a hit, and it remains very strong.
