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 […]
Israel, Tel Aviv. A few years ago, I took a taxi. The [male] driver did not wear a “Kippah”. There were no religious papers visible around. Not even the common religious stickers you can find on many cars in Israel. The busy Ayalon Highway 20, however, inevitably established the necessary atmosphere for a driver-passenger conversation. […]
Many religious people recognize the fact that the human mind is very “limited”. In fact, they even promote this fact, to “sort of” demonstrate how we cannot fully understand “God” and his processes of reasoning. At the same time, their limited minds seem to know very well that there IS such a “God”, and they […]
The word “logic” is used quite hastily nowadays. We tend to assign it to almost everything we think. We often blame others that they’re logically mistaken if they don’t think like us. Mathematically speaking, “logic” is a very well-defined area. If B is derived from A and A is true, then B is true. This […]
Some twenty years ago, Israeli media showed a large women conference, organized by ‘Shas’ – the Haredi religious political party in Israel. During the conference, there was an “on-line blessing” transmitted by cellular means from the late Rabbi Kaduri – a renowned Mizrahi Haredi rabbi and “kabbalist”, considered by many ill-educated religious people as some […]
The Amazon rainforest is on fire, while many world leaders are troubled by customs wars, local disputes or elections propaganda. This just demonstrates the short-term thinking of the human mind. We generally don’t perceive the risks of global warming or overpopulation for the same reason we don’t really perceive animals’ and plants’ evolution. Ironically the […]
Rational people are often blamed for allegedly worshipping scientists’ words. In practice, “worshipping” and blindly following words — is something I tend to associate with religious believers, even if I hope it’s not true for each and every one of them. No man, whether a scientist or some religious authority, even if considered “respectable” by […]
There is a big difference between how we perceive the world with our brain and how it really is. Furthermore, this difference is growing bigger as we discover more and more stuff about the world, especially about the behavior of very large things (as in astronomy) and very small things (as in quantum mechanics). The […]
It is called ‘epiphenomenalism‘ and it is extremely baffling. However, considered from a different point of view – it’s as simple as ABC. The behavior of the world/universe is governed by the laws of physics. Everything we know must obey the same rules, which dictate movements, electricity, chemical reactions, you name it. We may not […]
Religious people try to convince you that there must be a “god”. One of their major arguments has to do with the direction the world has been going to: “Imagine there is no god, no one to direct things. How come the universe has managed to form such complex structures, given the absence of something […]
