I'll give them that

2018-05-14 04:32:10 UTC  

For instance, the entire point of Passover is to acknowledge that they were once slaves, and are now free.

2018-05-14 04:32:27 UTC  

They remind themselves that they were slaves, but they give thanks for every step that led to their freedom.

2018-05-14 04:32:30 UTC  

I think Jews are pretty good at separating it's religion and the state

2018-05-14 04:32:54 UTC  

That's actually a pretty strong perspective, in my opinion.

2018-05-14 04:33:46 UTC  

Well, they're better from its children like Christianity and Islam.

2018-05-14 04:34:04 UTC  

Christianity has it's own entirely different problems.

2018-05-14 04:34:37 UTC  

Christianity, as we know it, is a convenient derivative of a convenient derivative, of a convenient derivative

2018-05-14 04:35:07 UTC  

of a religion that was bastardized politically by fact finding missions with death as the consequence of failure.

2018-05-14 04:35:29 UTC  

Everything north of Constantine is fucked.

2018-05-14 04:36:00 UTC  

Jesus, if you think about, Christianity is pretty much the child that ran too far from and just stayed somewhere it wasn't native to

2018-05-14 04:36:36 UTC  

Jesus famously celebrated Passover, for literal Christ Sake...

2018-05-14 04:37:00 UTC  

I actually have a strange respect for Jesus

2018-05-14 04:37:21 UTC  

If you want to be more Christ-like, start by observing Torah, including the parts that are inconvenient to you.

2018-05-14 04:38:09 UTC  

But that's the criticism I keep to myself, except when it's warranted.

2018-05-14 04:38:12 UTC  

Ehh, the Torah's pretty big. I've the read the Bible btw and I thought that was too long

2018-05-14 04:38:40 UTC  

It's really not.

2018-05-14 04:38:49 UTC  

It's mostly the Old Testament.

2018-05-14 04:39:02 UTC  

And most people won't follow that, even.

2018-05-14 04:39:24 UTC  

But even the Old Testament. I just think it's really long

2018-05-14 04:39:25 UTC  

Now if we're talking about the Talmud, that's some muddy waters, there.

2018-05-14 04:39:51 UTC  

There were originally 613 commandments that you're supposed to follow

2018-05-14 04:39:51 UTC  

Lol, what about the Dead Sea scrolls?

2018-05-14 04:40:40 UTC  

The 10 commandments were just what Moses could carry, if you believe the mythos.

2018-05-14 04:41:44 UTC  

Lol, think about Moses carrying 50 stone tablets. I actually went to go look up the history of the DSS and it has a very interesting history.

2018-05-14 04:42:10 UTC  

very thin stones

2018-05-14 04:42:57 UTC  

Yeah, but he would still have to make a lot of them and carry them down just to get pissed

2018-05-14 04:43:29 UTC  

Most of the commandments are listed in Leviticus.

2018-05-14 04:44:19 UTC  

Moses: "You motherfuckers! I've been gone for literally 40 days!"

2018-05-14 04:44:44 UTC  

lel

2018-05-14 04:47:53 UTC  

You know, I think Abrahamic religions need to get more closer to its relation to weed. I mean, come on, talking to a burning bush? Yeah, I bet he's talking to a "burning bush"

2018-05-14 04:48:14 UTC  

I bet he WAS burning bush...

2018-05-14 04:48:44 UTC  

Oh fuck yeah, it must be a great pass time

2018-05-14 04:49:46 UTC  

Let's talk Jews and Degeneracy, shall we? Since the people who speak out about Jews tend to also speak out about Degeneracy...

2018-05-14 04:50:38 UTC  

Is smoking weed really degeneracy? I think it's as degenerate as drinking.

2018-05-14 04:51:03 UTC  

Well, I mean... there's an argument that it's the Jews that are condoning things like Transgenderism

2018-05-14 04:51:27 UTC  

(A commandment) Not to give occasion to the simple-minded to stumble on the road (Lev. 19:14) (this includes doing anything that will cause another to sin) (CCN76).

2018-05-14 04:51:57 UTC  

(A Commandment) Not to castrate the male of any species; neither a man, nor a domestic or wild beast, nor a fowl (Lev. 22:24) (CCN143).

2018-05-14 04:52:38 UTC  

Hey, I think everyone would be aight with thatb

2018-05-14 04:52:50 UTC  

Seems like that would be at odds with religious judaism.

2018-05-14 04:53:15 UTC  

Shit, I gotta head to bed. Seeya man.
