We get into the excitement by discussing costumes, who the children will visit, and what we will buy to assemble for mishloach manos. I think we need to carry this theme of happiness and excitement all year long. We are all seeking happiness, fulfi llment, and satisfaction. I heard it said best from the Reader’s Digest years ago: “The city of happiness is in the state of mind.” We may not have everything we want or need, but we can choose to see it through a happy lens. I once heard the story of a rising college football star, who at the age of 16 years old was falsely accused and convicted of wrongdoing. Believing that the odds were not in his favor and fearing a life sentence, he chose to accept a plea deal of fi ve years in federal jail and fi ve years of probation. When he eventually got out of jail, he was able to clear his name by having an attorney from the Innocence Project set up an undercover meeting with the accuser, who admitted to having falsely accused him all those years ago. When asked how he overcame his anger after enduring so much pain as an innocent person, he said that a person might not be able to control others, but you can control how you internalize it, what you make of it in you, and how you process your next steps. I think this can be a great lesson for all of us. Yes, you can always blame someone else for your lack of success, for not having what you need, or for your childhood. But as someone once said, the day you stop feeling bad for yourself is the fi rst day of the rest of your life. Let us enjoy Purim and every day of the year.

    Legal Pluralism, Religious Adjudication and the State

    A PLURALITY OF DISCONTENT: LEGAL PLURALISM, RELIGIOUS ADJUDICATION AND THE STATE Adam S. Hofri-Winogradow* INTRODUCTION The norms that the official legal systems of North American and European states apply do not derive directly from any religion. While some of those norms, such as some of the norms governing marriage, do originate, historically, in religion and religious law, no norms are today enforced by those legal systems because the norms are part of a specific religious legal order. And yet, adjudication according to religious norms is commonplace. In North America and Europe, the legal systems applying norms associated with specific religions to adherents of those religions are principally nonstate community tribunals. Outside this Northwestern world, state legal systems, particularly those of Muslim- majority jurisdictions, often permit religious normative materials to be applied to adherents of the relevant religions as a matter of state law. Both situations are examples of legal pluralism.' The popularity of the application of religious norms by state legal systems2 throughout much of the contemporary world raises a challenge * Assistant Professor, Faculty of Law, Hebrew University of Jerusalem.
