Today, something very important is going to happen. I say “very important”. Let me rephrase… Dramatic. Significant. Epical. Necessary. Vital. Historical. I could keep going by merely opening a thesaurus and just picking any word that relates to “important”, for you see today something wonderful is going to happen, something which we have been waiting for a long time. President Trump is going to announce his recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel. Now, before I ...

Fairy Tales Exist
I want to follow up with expounding on something from yesterday’s post, especially since I know I probably won’t write for a while with the holidays coming.

Morning Musings
Too much of "Life" is arbitrary. How we define our ontology must have a foundation, or Life is meaningless. "What is real? What is good? What is beauty? What is truth?" — all these questions, not only their answers, are futile if there exists no predetermined construct. That's our problem with G-d: we don't want to have our own lives predetermined, pre-defined for us. We want to find meaning within ourselves. However, if the Scriptures are true, then we cannot find meaning apart from ...
