Ask Me Stuff

It's from the Talmud afaik, but as I am not very familiar with that body of literature I honestly cannot tell you from exactly where and I didn't want to mislead. It's what I've learnt from listening to lectures and so on. I wasn't trying to be less than transparent.

Thanks. If and when you find Talmud reference I'd appreciate you sharing it with me.

On the 1st anniversaire of my rejoining the mod squad, another ask me anything thread :)
On RF we have frequent arguments about Creationism and Evolution. In a world full of noise about this subject how do you cope, and how do you decide what to listen to on this subject? Do you believe in miraculous supernatural creation? Is it important to you?

It's not important to me and I try to stay as far away as I can from those debates.

I apologise; it's from the Mishneh Torah, Kings and Wars chapter 10,

The principle here is that we do not permit them to make a new religion and create new commandments for themselves based on their own reasoning. They may only become Righteous Converts and accept upon themselves all the Commandments, or they must observe their own (Seven) Laws only, and not add or detract from them.

What about burial? Do you care if your body is cremated, buried underground, buried at sea or otherwise disposed of?
