I think I may have flipped out

This is gonna shock everyone in the blogosphere. XD

I think everyone is gonna be like, WTF, when they hear about this. XD

Here goes XD I don't think I'm an atheist anymore.

Now, before we go any further-

1) I believe in the big bang and in evolution.

2) I still am unaffiliated with a religion, and chances are I will remain that way.

3) I believe men and women should be able to interact the way they do in secular society.

4) I don't claim to have all the answers when it comes to the metaphysical, nor any of them for that matter.

5) I still dislike halacha. XD

So don't go on and callin me a frummy. I'm still basically secular.

What got me was I saw this youtube video, granted, the delivery was veeeeeeeeeeeeeery poor and presumptuous, nevertheless the point seeeeeems to be strong, I thought about it for a long time.


There are only four possibilities for cosmology.

1) Existence is an illusion.

2) Something came from nothing.

3) Everything always existed.

4) Everything came from God.

1 and 2 is absurd on the face of it.

3 is negated by way of entropy. The fact that entropy obviously has not run its full course seems to display that the universe is not eternal. Even the big bang theory says that the universe had a beginning.

Aren't we left with 4? O.o

China Is Calling For Global Population Control

How long will Israel last without nuclear deterrence?

Mussar From Jay-Z

This song from Jay-Z has an important mussar that the orthodox community forgot.


Enjoy the song, and the mussar is from 0:24 to 0:27.






This is in reference to the stamars trying to impose their religious laws on bicyclists in Brooklyn, New York by taking away their bike lanes since satmars don't like looking at attractive women on bicycles. IF YOU DON'T LIKE SOMETHING SOMEONE ELSE IS DOING, LOOK THE OTHER WAY!!!!!! DON'T IMPOSE YOUR CRAP ON OTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Science Takes You Into Space, Orthodox Judaism Takes You Into Hours Of Teffillah and Torah Talmud Study And False Hope

Virgin Galactic to unveil commercial spaceship



1) Science takes you into space, cures diseases, and improves the lives of people. Orthodox Judaism makes sure that your lives are as strict and boring as possible. You can't cough without having to read the Gemara and the Shulchan Aruch about it.

2) The profit motive of capitalism is an important catalyst for the advancement of science in this day and age.

Hypocrites

Absolutely Disgusting

Haaretz: Satmar Hasidim rally at UN over Israel's `cruelty` toward ultra-Orthodox


If Israel's orthodox jews stopped trying to control people there wouldn't be so much dislike towards them. Attempts at religious coercion is never a strategy to make friends.

Obama Surge Speech & Drones In Pakistan & NATO In Afghanistan

Obama's surge speech offers two messages: one to placate the right, one to assuage the left
(opinion article)


C.I.A. to Expand Use of Drones in Pakistan



NATO Pledges 7,000 Troops, but Avoids Details

The Problem With A Deadline For Afghanistan Pullout

And Iraq for that matter.


The only thing enemy forces will do is sit and wait for the USA to leave, things will magically quiet down, Obama will take all the credit, and once U.S. forces pull out of these places, they will go down to Hell again.


Nothing good can come out of saying a deadline publicly.

Is Israel Becoming Like Iran?

http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/2009/12/idf-soldier-jailed-for-cooking-on-shabbat-456.html

Haredim get to riot and assault women and police, and this guy gets jail for cooking on Shabbat.

I'm a zionist if it's a Jewish America, not if it's a Jewish Iran.

Halacha = Shariah.
