This is what happens when a schmutznik decides to believe in God.
Hey Miki
Now I have found a worthy reason to raise matters of importance in the appropriate guise of holiness:
For several weeks now I have wanted to tell you that my condemnation of libertarianism does not stem solely from the fact that in the State of Israel we must, for our very existence, create a strong and cohesive society, a society in which the talents of each individual will reach their fullest potential, a society in which all its members, even if they are not Jews, will feel that they belong to it. [Of course there will always be a few disturbed ones]
But now, following several articles in “Shabbat” on the subject of Sabbath observance, an understanding has formed in me that has allowed me to expand on and refine the matter:
Many observant Jews seek the experience of holiness, I assume you are not one of them – [or am I mistaken?]
I do not claim that I cannot feel the awe of holiness, but I do not seek it, and I always seek the rational basis for majesty and sublimity.
Well, what holiness can there be in a world where people know about the suffering and suffering of others, but since the other is not visible, then the world behaves as it is. How does this relate to my defiance against libertarianism? If I understand the concept of libertarianism correctly, then it comes as the antithesis of socialism. Because the parameter of libertarianism is economic efficiency [did I understand correctly?] But don’t think that I don’t understand the rules of the game, to illustrate: I come up with a technological idea and manage to prove its feasibility. Then people are convinced and put money towards R&D, and then towards a production line. [For now, we’ll ignore the fear that someone else has thought of a similar but different idea.] And that’s it – I’ve brought employment to workers, engineers and technicians, and then you have to market the product. There’s no other choice. When the shareholders are breathing down your neck, who cares about which special salamander that has prepared the spring from which the factory is drawn for its needs as a seat. Then comes the moment when the factory is moved to another country where the labor wage is lower.
So maybe central planning isn’t so bad, even if the standard of living isn’t high!
Do I need to tell you that cultivating expectations for purchasing a particular product is the main engine of the economy, and that these expectations have nothing to do with hope, which is something of a different order of magnitude?!
From television, I got the impression that the Haredim, who live in dire straits, do not feel miserable and vulnerable.
In conclusion, I apologize: Maybe I made a big mistake and mixed up gender with non-gender.
All the best
Indeed, it’s a lie. I didn’t understand what the argument was.
A prosperous economy is achieved through ever-greater production. This is achieved by increased consumption - either of the same population, or of a growing population.
In the first case, this is wasteful hedonistic consumerism, in the second case - causing a continuation of the “population explosion”.
In both cases, this means wasting the earth's resources.
Ostensibly, these things have nothing to do with holiness - from my point of view, they do - because although the religious public [of any religion] experiences holiness as something unique, I, as a person who believes that even if the laws of nature and evolution are a significant factor in the development of creation without God's planning of every detail, I believe that in complex systems of plant and animal life, God was a planning and shaping factor. Therefore, ignoring harm to what God created is nothing less than sacrilege.
Now on to something else: Rabbi Yomtov Gindi [electronics engineer] translated the translation of the Ras”g from Jewish Arabic into literary Arabic.
Thanks to this, Muslim religious scholars were exposed to the original version of the Bible for the first time. And Rabbi Gindi is inundated with inquiries from Muslims interested in the subject.
I contacted him because it meets the needs of my vision for dialogue with Islam
Good. As far as I'm concerned, there's no need to tie all of this to holiness. It's all a matter of common sense. What makes sense makes sense and what doesn't doesn't. I'm not related to God Almighty.
