A place to read and write about God(s), religion(s) and similar obscure entities. |
The debates between religious and secular, between “believers” in some god and “non-believers” – are as old as human imagination. In the ancient world where scientific knowledge was much inferior to nowadays, most of these debates tended to favor the religious side. Yet, even then there were quite a few people who opposed the simple […]
There is a big thing in Israel against Reform Judaism (a.k.a. Progressive Judaism). The opposition comes mainly from Orthodox Jews, but they have managed to indoctrinate many others into considering Reform Jews as some sort of evil. In fact, you can find many statements emphasizing that Reform Jews are “even” worse than “Goyim” – the […]
“But most people believe in God…” – You’ve probably heard this winning argument in one of your endless discussions with some religious preacher. The calculation done by our partner to the discussion is pretty obvious: Let’s take the number of Christians in the world (say about 2 billion) together with the number of world’s Muslims […]
Stories change over time. This known to everyone who’s had the opportunity to join a “telephone” game (sometimes known as ‘Chinese whispers’). You can more read about it here. One of the strangest things that seem to have change is our… God. Well, not directly him (or her), but rather their name, and – actually […]
Thursday, October 27, 2016 — The chairman of the Knesset’s financial committee, Mr. Moshe Gafni, rejected the request of a local Christian organization for certain tax benefits. Its members were said to be observed performing “missionary” activities. Rightfully so. You can easily guess I have nothing to do with hallucinatory Christian groups, but look what […]
The word ‘Jewish’ is open to more than one interpretation. I remember once staying at the Scots Hotel, Tiberias, Israel (great restaurant, by the way). One of the features they offer visitors is a lecture about the hotel, its history and guidelines. They emphasize the fact that one third of the employees are “Christians”, another […]
New Year’s Eve is named “Sylvester’s Day” in some countries, Israel included. The reason has to do with Pope Sylvester I who presumably died in December 31, almost two millennia ago. According to one legend, it appears that Mr. Sylvester was not so kind to the Jews. The contemporary outcome is a major ban by […]
Yesterday I saw a movie about Ireland in the beginning of the previous century (“Jimmy’s Hall”, recommended). True it had also some political contents, left-right and all that, but lots of religious stuff. You’re “evil” if you’re “anti-Christ”. You’re banned from society if you don’t believe Jesus is the son of God. The beginning of […]
The argument can go both ways, and indeed it does, very often. What’s more, there is lots of criticism heard from religious people, of things associated with secularity. Have you heard that schools of the secular sector introduce more violence? Do you know that secular people as a whole are blamed for maintaining weaker relationships […]
“Us, and them. And after all we’re only ordinary men.” – ‘Us and Them’, Pink Floyd, Roger Waters Using passive voice is a great thing, a must for skillful politicians and salesmen. “Promised Land” and “Chosen People” are both amazing expressions without needing to explain who promised and who chose. So, who are God’s chosen […]
