      So what he's saying is that Hamas donned IOF uniforms before making video of themselves eating and playing silly games and looting the homes of "Israelis" that somehow looked more like impoverished Gaza homes than anything on a Kibbutz.

    If I'm for example a patrilineal Jew why can't I automatically convert after 6 years of living with the halahic Jews? According to Jewish history that was a standard procedure for a Ger Toshav? Also Zadukim (the opponents of the Pharisees) accepted patrilineal Jews as kosher so why is it not a thing anymore?

    • @yehudahecht1520
      @yehudahecht1520 Місяць тому

      Patrilineal descent has no halachic status in determining Jewishness. You don't have the status of a Ger Toshav, that is something completely different - in today's day and age you can probably equate it to "Noahide." You can go through a conversion process whenever you'd like, though.

      @@abupinhus that's just your opinion. There's 30k Karaim in Israel only. Shemronim abide by the version of Judaism that's more ancient then the majority of religions in the world. Jews like to refer to Judaism as the original, base for other Abrahamic religion. Then second temple Judaism is logically a base for the modern Judaism. By your logic reformist Jews aren't Jewish either just heretics. I just would like Judaism to be more consistent and inclusive like the old school Judaism

      @@alexfranklin1479 jews did not "built a church", they bult "temple". For jews church has very negative connotation. And meaning is also different, church is "kirka" - place of assemblage. We jews also have such places, they called "bet knesset" - house of assemblage in Hebrew, or synagogue in Greek. Temple, or in hebrew "bet mikdash" - is place deducated to God. So, we have plenty of "bet knesset", we do hope to get third "bet mikdash" soon.

    Disappointed. Claiming that all political leadership do not have empathy needs explanation or proof. Require poltitician to think long term and in societal goals above all is at best naive considereng the insentives. It hard to think long term when your job do not survive for more that one year.

      And Israel, like all these countries but unlike a number of Muslims countries does not demand its citizens be Jewish. The Arab and Druze citizens of Israel are Muslim, and there are small members of other religions. Omg, how the Druze love being citizens of Israel. Bless them.

      Maybe the most important progression in human political history was the founders of the United States Constitution declaring absolute separation of church and state. Why did they do that? Because the history of humanity is a history of one group of people believing and proclaiming that they have the inside line on God, they above all others have God's ear and thus they are all powerful and all righteous and always supposed to come out on top. Most organized religion is little more than a means by which one usually small group of people grasps and hold onto power over as many other people as they can. Democracy leaves it to each individual to decide for themselves the question of their relationship to God and the rules that people follow in a Democracy are rules that are meant, in theory, to provide the greatest good possible for the greatest number of people, human beings, not one group over another that is absolutely possible. Democracy is hard work. Democracy takes thought, knowledge, wisdom, and each person has to take responsibility for their part in it. Israel would stand a greater chance of being a strong nation if it severs government from religion. Ultimately the world will not be governed by religious zealots of any system of religious belief. That is where humanity is headed.
