First, anyone who compromises their speech for the sake of electability is traitor to his or [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Saturday, 11th of December 2010 at 05:17:27 PMI warn you, this is a ramble or sorts, and It definitely might make you wonder what I am up to on a Saturday afternoon, but my intent is to be though provoking. I observe Shabbat as much as I can, and a day of no technology and thinking, well makes a guy think! I [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Monday, 20th of September 2010 at 11:30:18 AMAs many if you know, I have often said that if not the largest, but in the top 5 largest expansions of the scope and size of the Federal Government occurred in the 8 years of the Republican administration (I dare not speak his name, because he and his ilk as as un-American as they [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Thursday, 18th of December 2008 at 03:12:29 PMDear Team- I would like to express my disgust and dismay at the choice of Rick Warren to give the invocation at the inauguration. As a Jew, I am always very uncomfortable with the encroachment of dominant Christian forces into the public sphere, not only because it is anti-American, but because the tendency is for [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Thursday, 6th of December 2007 at 11:56:59 PMThe memo is simple: Dear Jews, if you plan on celebrating your holiday please do it quietly and in the corner and if you happen to ever think your holiday is as important as ours we will certainly remind you of your minority status. When city officials planted a 7-foot-tall Christmas tree next to a [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Wednesday, 1st of August 2007 at 06:04:13 PMLooks like I am not the only one thinking about Christians as polytheistic idol worshipers. Check out the lectures of Rabbi Tovia Signer. Try to imagine the astonished reaction of a Jew (who has his monotheism intact) as he discovers from your question that missionaries use his cherished national creed, “Hear O Israel, the Lord [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Tuesday, 24th of July 2007 at 02:13:12 PMToday is a bad day for Jews. Traditionally we are all sad because we lost our Temple. In general, the more, well, modern amongst us, see this as a time to be insightful and think about the big plan as manifested through events then, now and in the middle – we are talking about 2000+ [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Sunday, 1st of April 2007 at 11:56:50 AMI know this might be a complicated question – or the answer might be complicated – but what would Christians be today if there were no Jesus? Would they be more pagan than they are now? Would they be Jews, Muslims, or maybe Zoroastrians? ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Friday, 23rd of February 2007 at 11:17:41 AMWelly, welly, welly, it would appear that the centerpiece of one the worlds great faiths is a fraud. Are we shocked? No. What, pray tell, might force the doctrine of infallibility and the fundamentalist evangelical movement into a seizure? The discovery of Jesus’ tomb, complete with bones of his family. Yes, Jesus was a man [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Wednesday, 8th of November 2006 at 07:40:17 AMWe win. America Wins. The World Wins. Thank G-d we finally showed the world we are not all idiots. Democrats are on the way back. Now!!!! No blow jobs, keep the curruption down, and fight for America. The America we all want, open, free, equitable, Christian right wing bullshit free, and a better world citizen.

I maintained that it was fundamentally un-American to allow your neighbors to loose their jobs so that you could have the perception of cheaper [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Friday, 18th of August 2006 at 09:24:43 PMTalmud tidbit, from 2 days go, a short version: Jews asked to be forgiven for sin of idol worship, and were sent a flaming lion cub to deal with, they did, putting it in a lead pot and sealing the pot closed. They figured, we are on a roll, lets ask for evil inclination [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Saturday, 17th of April 2004 at 11:04:14 PMIdan has been traveling through Mexico for over a month and was around the Cancun area. I looked online and found a good deal to go visit him for a 4 days weekend. In total the trip would cost about 300$. I figured staying in a resort would give him nice break from his backpacking [...] ✡ Nathan wrote this entry on Sunday, 10th of August 2003 at 11:32:26 AMThis trip has 2 parts – to hang out in Zurich and see my family members there and be at the ETH and then to go to the opening of the Locarno International File Festival in Locarno, Switzerland in the Kanton if Tessin.The few days I spent at the start of the week in Zurich [...] |
