A place to read and write about God(s), religion(s) and similar obscure entities. |
“Then said Achish unto his servants, Lo, ye see the man is mad: wherefore then have ye brought him to me? Have I need of mad men, that ye have brought this fellow to play the mad man in my presence? shall this fellow come into my house?” — 1 Samual 21:14-15 “The whole religious […]
“Doesn’t the vast majority of people believe in God…?” – You’ve probably heard this overwhelming argument in one of your endless debates with some religious preachers. The calculation made by our conversational partners is quite clear: Let’s add the number of Christians worldwide (say, about 2 billion) to the number of Muslims worldwide (some 2 […]
There’s something hard to explain with Islam… Don’t extreme Muslims believe in the power of God? Why then they must conduct his battles for him? Let’s see now: In Sweden, threats to burn the Quran by a far-right group triggered several nights of violence. In Israel, threats to sacrifice a young goat on the Temple […]
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 […]

In the meantime, countries of the “new world”, especially in Europe, formulate new rules about how animals should be killed in order to be eaten. The main idea is electrocution, namely death by […]
The recent couple of weeks have been chaotic in Israel. Even though the struggle against Covid-19 seemed to succeed – new challenges have popped, in particular the war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip and its implications inside Israel on the relationships between Jews and Arabs. This is not the proper place to describe the […]
This is the Middle East here, which means: If you don’t get religious coercion from one side – you get it from the other. Israel has just gone through its 4th elections within a period of two years. One of the main issues is the ancient religious rules that are mixed with modern Israeli law. […]
“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 […]
“The State of Israel … will ensure complete equality of social and political rights to all its inhabitants irrespective of religion, race or sex …” — From the Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel Wait a minute… Suppose someone’s religion is in favor of killing innocent people? Does he or she still […]
Proportions are nice. Putting things in proportions is an important thing. Often it makes us feel a bit humble, causes us to think a little about the world around us. Thinking, you know, may promote unwanted actions :) Consider for example the rocks and stones in Jerusalem. The Western Wall – one of the most […]
