Ha ha annoying troll! The joke's on you!! I don't avoid bread for the sake of some magical mystical benefit! I do it to honor tradition, and out of fidelity to the Torah: This is what Jews do and have always done, and it is what we beleive the Torah demands. I absolutely do not expect some invisible, intangible reward for it. I expect a reward that is concrete and tangible, a reward that is linked naturally and directly to the act of abstaining from bread itself. Anyone who expects to receive a gold star on his heavenly report card is an infant operating under a delusion. As the midrash says "What does God care if an animal is slaughtered from the back or the front? Rather, the mitsvot were only given to improve us."My friend dovbear thinks that some magical and mystical benefit will accrue to him if he removes all bread from his house for 8 days! Not only that, but if he leaves all the bread items in a closet, and pretends to sell them to someone whose mother isn't Jewish, he thinks he will still get this magical benefit.
