Yes. Many years ago. The husband of a friend of mine in FL was a Rabbi who made a point of counseling them. One time, they came out to visit him (from some other Southern state).

I do not call myself a Noachide even though I have no problem with the basic Seven Laws or even the 23 extensions developed by Rabbi Azariah. But I do find it somewhat odd that the latest elucidation of what is required comprises three volumes. In Hebrew.

I do not understand the difference between the first reason and second, and I have seen people and websites mention this before. Isn't saying "it is the right thing to do." an acknowledgement of the general commandment already given to mankind? Do you need to experience a personal commandment?
