<HTML>I was surprised by Jack Bieler's suggestion to see Rav Avraham Bno shel Ha Rambam. If memory serves, he mainly recommends treating Aggada as lessons or metaphor. His comment on medicine is simply that Chazal didn't really know what they were talking about. I am not sure that your average high school student should be taught that about the Chachamim of the Gemara. The Gra that I quoted in my last message rejects the Rambam's approach to these things out of hand. One has to
be very careful how Chazal are presented to students who do not have a full sense of Emunat Chachamim yet.
