A place to read and write about God(s), religion(s) and similar obscure entities. |
Rumor has it that during the “Black Plague” in the Middle Ages there were those who blamed the Jews for its spread, because of the lower mortality among them, which was associated with the religious customs of washing hands. Much water has flown since then, even in Jordan River. And nowadays? Miraculously, various elements related […]
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 […]
Tens of thousands of Breslev Hasidic Jews intend to fly to Ukraine, to the town of Uman, in order to attend the yearly ceremony near the grave of their rabbi. This is generally an extremely crowded event, and the people in charge of public health in Israel want to prevent this madness from taking place, […]
One of the strangest claims, widely spread in the world of religious preaching, has to do with the phenomenon known by science as “the Big Bang”. The religious believer imagines a big explosion, say, like the one we observe when a bomb goes off. A great amount of things is blasted in all directions, and […]
“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 […]
Knowledge of religion is often portrayed as “wisdom”, and memorizing religious verdicts is often referred to as “studying”. However, the real attitude of religion towards true studying is like a double-edged sword. This is true for many religions of the world, is in particular true for the big Western ones, namely the various trends of […]
A soldier in the IDF has been put into a month of detention, because… a package of hamburger was found in his private fridge, in his room. Now, let me make this clear: This was not an issue of health. It was not some commercial thing. No money was involved in the reason for this […]
The big parties in the Israeli parliament (the “Knesset”) quarrel over the image of the future government. One of the main issues? Things associated with a bit more separation of church and state. In particular: Public transportation in the weekends, the right of every couple to get married regardless of religious constraints, compulsory basic education […]
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 […]
