A place to read and write about God(s), religion(s) and similar obscure entities. |
A piece of news recently circulated online, announcing that the rapper Kanye West is planning to convert to Judaism to avoid accusations of antisemitism. Three notes on this topic: 1. Our short article is not at all about Kanye West’s opinions and statements. Even if there is much to write about on this topic, it […]
THIS was published here a while ago. Due to current news it’s being mentioned again.
Well… not the famous Christian thing you may have thought of. This time we will discuss another Holy Trinity. In one corner of this triangle, we find the Muslims. They believe that Muhammad traveled overnight from Mecca to Jerusalem, to the Temple Mount, and later also rode a horse from there to heaven to meet […]
There is currently a huge debate in Israel about an issue that has great potential to bring down the government: The obligatory army service (conscription) of ultra-Orthodox Jews, a.k.a. “Haredim”. Ultra-Orthodox Jews in Israel do not currently enlist in the IDF, while the conscription law applies equally to the rest of the Jewish population. The […]
Hamas and Hezbollah are known terrorist organizations, but just like ISIS they are also religious terrorist organizations. The ideology that drives them is mainly a religious-Muslim ideology. The leaders of Hamas, like other religiously oriented fanatics, are convinced that God is with them. The decision-making process of the movement’s leaders (and Sinwar in particular) is […]
“And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should […]
I’m not sure to what extent this is also the case in some other countries, but the political division into “right” and “left” in Israel largely (even if not perfectly) corresponds to a citizen’s “religiousness”. And the affiliation seems relatively clear: “Religious” Jews (of any kind) will usually associate themselves with the “right” wing, while […]
My country is being robbed. There is no other way to describe it. A mixture of extreme religious parliament members together with some other self-proclaimed democracy experts gathered to turn this paradise into hell. They promote the notion of how good the idea is to control any supreme court’s decision. They seriously talk about “God” […]
I have heard this line of thought several times — You talk with a religious Jew about the borders of the State of Israel, you raise all kinds of considerations: The need for a Jewish majority, the need for secured borders, the much-needed support of the various countries of the world, the Palestinians, the economy […]
And again… elections in Israel. What do you know. And the “new star” this time is an extreme-right party. The name? “Religious Zionism”. The agenda? Depends on whom you ask. The candidates of “Religious Zionism” have two faces. One face they present to their usual voter base. With them they discuss religion, religious laws, religious […]
