When Did You Meet The Star of David Emblem For The First Time
From my own experience, I dare to reckon that most of you readers have no account of your meeting with the Star of David emblem for the first time. I have a faint early childhood memory of playing with my fathers’ police hat, which arrived at my nose, but I don’t remember the police badge on its front, that was in the shape of the six-pointed star. I don’t remember singing about it in kindergarten or learning about it in school. I assume I can’t blame my memory – it is the nature of this symbol to communicate directly with the sub consciousness and to bypass memory.
