The Hypocrisy of False Repentance

Please see my new article in The Times of Israel called “The Hypocrisy of False Repentance.”

We firmly believe that there is true Divine justice by the Almighty (even if not always by our court system), and that if we don’t do good and work at perfecting our deficiencies as is our purpose in Olam Hazeh (this world), then we will suffer the consequences in the World to Come.

Don’t Follow Haters and Liars

I liked this sign:

Truth does not mind being questioned. 

A lie does not like being challenged. 

This seems like truth to me!

People who push an agenda and their propaganda never like to discuss it or answer questions about it. It’s usually prejudice in some way and they just want to ram it down people’s throats. 

Questioning and shedding light on things that don’t seem right is part of our moral and civic duty.  

Of course, the haters and liars would rather that we just accept the falsehoods they are peddling like stupid sheep who blindly follow them down the road to perdition. πŸ˜‰

Lawyer or Liar

Funny shirt this guy chooses to wear:

Trust me I’m a lawyer.

My dad used to joke:

Not a lawyer, a liar! 

I think he was referring to the ones who knowingly and dishonestly defend guilty violent criminals. 

But like with all people, some people are good and some are not so good.  πŸ˜‰

The Mind’s Eye

The mind’s eye can see what the real eye’s don’t.Perhaps, we see something (or not) and then rationalize it away or use any other of the cognitive biases to not pay attention or distort the facts and the truth.
Not sure why this 3rd eye is off-center and also looks upside down (with the eyelashes on the bottom).
The age old question is whether it would it be better to have the extra eye in the back of your head?
360-degree vision, way cool!
Now if we can add some high-tech sensors to augment our eyes then we could also routinely see at night, in fog, etc.
It isn’t true that what you don’t see can’t hurt you. 
Eyes wide open, and pay very good attention!  πŸ˜‰
