Happy Yom Ha'atzma'ut!
The State of Israel is now 73.
I'm not aware of any other country that moves the celebrations of its independence day depending on what day of the week it falls on. But Israel does, whenever there's a chance that the celebrations will cause a desecration...

יְהוֺשׁוּעַ with the second Vav appears only 2 times.
יְהוֺשֻׁעַ with only one Vav appears 216 times.
What does it mean? And which is the original one?
With the 1,000s of different versions of religions and the different versions of those religions, an appearance by God is long overdue. There also billions on Earth who would welcome the knowledge of its existence just to confirm which version of its being, religion, messenger, prophets are...
If Zoonotic diseases come from being in close proximity to animals and not being evolved enough to eat them then did pigs cause disease in the Middle East thousands of years ago ? Is that the reason Jews and Muslims don't eat pork ? If that's the case then we've evolved enough to eat pork for at...
There have been several threads recently where questons have come up as to:
Why do Torah based Jews not accept Chrisitian scriptual interpretation?
Why do Torah based Jews not Jesus as a/the Messiah?
Why is there a divide between "Judaism" and "Christianity?"
It is hope that in this post these...

Edit: The following thread was created for discussion/debate by Jews and Noahides.
Last shabbat, one of the rabbis at my yeshiva gave us a talk about the almost-forgotten Fast of the 9th of Tevet, probably created in the memory of Simon Kipa, which led to talking about some of the history of...
(By "friends" I here mean any kind of ally in religious terms.)
Taking into account history, should Jews and Christians be friends? Or Jews and muslims? Or Muslims and Christians?
Which one would make a most likely friendship?
Muslims got along well with Jews for centuries. Christians have...
How do you think about the Holocaust, theologically?
There's an interesting article here, about the Holocaust.
I find it almost to think about from a theological standpoint. How about you?
Why do you think the Jews rejected Jesus? The new testament seems to suggest the jews who rejected Jesus were just arrogant but i'm not sure I buy that.
Lets say the Exodus didn't happen, or Genesis is entirely made up. Not a single instance in these books happened. Do we toss out the whole thing? can there still be spiritual truth in a book full of myths?
Or maybe say it turns out the Jesus of the bible never existed, is there still worth in...
The Final Selection Thought Experiment enables everyone to prove to themselves if God is an alternative fact or not. If there is a God that governs our existence as believed, then the two acts of selection (direct and indirect selection) cannot govern our existence which means that everyone can...
