Is Matzah Gluten Free?

Why on this night are there hungry people anywhere?

Will rich people go to jail for bribing their kids into college?

Why does anyone even notice the color of someone else’s skin?

Why are there guns?

Can we shorten the Seder?
Please.

Why can’t everyone do their own thing without feeling threatened by someone else’s thing?

Why? Just why?

Are we still wandering in the desert?

Why are the words desert and dessert so deliciously similar?

If you saw a burning bush, would you put it out?

Would you yell at rocks if you knew that they would spout water.
Or would you just talk to them kindly.

Would you send the water to Flint, Michigan or keep it all for yourself?

Have you ever talked to a bush, a rock, the sky, your God, our God,
My God.

Are you sure we haven’t reached the promised land?

Didn’t they say recently we could now eat corn on Passover? How do you feel about that?
Are you reaching for a soda.

Are you going to finally get to the second part of the seder this year, or are you going to call it quits when the meal comes?

If Elijah really showed up when you opened the door, would you let him in, or would you ask for ID first? Would you call the police if he didn’t have any.

Who really drinks from Elijah’s cup…it’s you isn’t it?

Are you free? Have you ever been free?
Shouldn’t everyone be free?
