    The third and most misinterpreted word.. "God"

    This is a follow up for the previous post: (Although this one does not relay on the previous one) Second... One of the most misunderstood things in the OT is the naming of God. Although all names refer to the same God, each name represents a different aspect of it. The most famous name is...

    Second...

    This is a follow-up to this: https://www.religiousforums.com/threads/the-first-word.252004/ The second word in the Hebrew bible is ברא. It is used very little times in the OT. The word "create" in English, is more similar to the word יצר. There are times the word ברא is used, times יצר is...

    Forget a second about spiritual...

    Regardless of the question of god or not, the Judaism, contains in it (as many other religions) many amazing insights about humanity and life. The "ten commandments" (which are not really commandments, but thumb rules, and there are only 9 rules and one statement). Looking at the history of...

    Please, prove me wrong.

    I've been an atheist for some time. Quite a long time. I had good life. I still do :) But today i fear, i wasted a lot of time in my life if what i've learned about God is true. Not that I am not grateful that i discovered it, but it is a scary thought to suddenly understand how blind you were...

    The good and bad

    Eventually. There is Good and there is bad. This has got nothing to do with moral. Moral is a social concept. Moral, is what "bad" we accept as "good". There is one good. It is the root cause of life. In science we call it evolution. In the Jewish text's its called "Pru Ur Vu" (פרו ורבו). In...

    So... what is God?

    The simplest answer is that no one knows. no one ever presumed to know what God is. What people, usually religious, will maybe claim, is that they are familiar with God's ways... This is not to be the same as knowing what it is, rather how it operates. The fact is, no one knows for sure if God...

    Putting aside the term God, would you agree?

    This question is mostly to people who lack the belief in God (Mono). Let's put aside for a second the term God and all the ways people try and define this god. Would you agree that there must be an initial cause to everything? I mean that from our human POV, we today know that time had a...

    Why Christians are not Jewish?

    I ask it out of ignorance as I lack the information regarding this question... If Jesus was Jewish, and Jesus kept saying that he never came to change the words of the Hebrew bible rather "explain" them, where did he say one shouldn't follow God's ways as given to the Jewish people? Wouldn't...

    It is done, I think i've found it

    I am a very logical person. I'm skeptical in thought and I love studying about the different religious and myth of different cultures. I've been an atheist for several years, but only recently I've discovered I am really not (???) It feels like "Coming out", but feels right to write this. From...

    Is it ok to eat meat based on your religion?

    Based on the Torah, a permission to eat meat was only given in later times. Looking back at the interpretations of the Torah, the loading rabbis of the old era (Hazel) seemed to agree it is forbidden and humans should avoid eating meat and today meat is eaten only due to the inability of humans...

    It all adds up and i must say it gives me the chills

    the Jewish study i am making keeps surprising me every day. I might say it is at times in debate with other religions and at times it is similar (interpretation wise). there are some things that seem far from a lucky guess. I have a very honest question to Christians. do you accept the...

    Life's "expiry date" of the Jewish religion

    In the recent months, in a very unsettling way, all the leaders of the religious (Jewish) communities in Israel mainly and around the world, are spreading the word of the final revelation of the messiah. It was forbidden to discuss in the past years, but these days (based on their own claims)...

    An Interesting challenge

    Hi All, I was a very active user of these forums. I have taken some time (A few month) to do some studying. I've been studying quite a lot and still am. I have many reasons to assume god (Any of them) doesn't exist. Actually.. the correct statement will be I have very little reasons to believe...

    answers about morality?

    I Have yet to come across a situation that involves a "morality" dilemma, that cannot be easily solved if you had more details about the situation. I find it to be very contradicting with the question of objective moral. So the answer of theists (that i have met so far) to the objective...

    The illogical logic...

    Usually when I debate, i make sure that the person I talk with, understands my definition of the words i use (only when there is more than one common definition). as i see it, it is vital for a debater to have a clear understanding of the terms being used by the other debater in order to have a...

    If science was a religion

    Many time people blame me for following the religion of science instead of other religions. Once they understand i am an atheist, they look for reason (that it seems they can't really understand) why i don\'t believe there is a god. For some reason, it seems they think science really is a sort...

    The top wrong assumptions i've came across when debating theist about evolution

    I Debate a lot. I love to share my ideas and hear ideas other people have. I love being exposed to many different points of view people have. Unfortunately, many times, when i debate theists, they have many arguments against evolution, yet all of them (without an exception) are due to...
