FAQ How can you be an atheist Jew?
An atheist is one who disbelieves in (or denies) the existence of God, Gods, and other supernatural beings.
A Jew is any person whose mother was a Jew, or any person who has gone through the formal process of conversion to Judaism.

Touched By An Atheist
This is funny. It could have been funnier if I wrote it. But it is still funny.
To speak accurately: Judaism is the religion of the Jews. The Jewish people are an ethnic group. It is possible for a Jew not to practice Judaism and to remain a Jew for that reason. Persons who are finding the term "atheist Jew" confusing do not realize that there is a Jewish people apart from a Jewish religion and that the two do not necessarily have to be one and the same.
That map is crap, and is only found on a Palestinian site. Nobody said Arabs didn't exist. They only owned 20% of the land, and they made bad choices. No do overs.
That map was later established as UN map no. 94 (b)
Moreover, you seem to not unerstand the village system of the Palestinians of Palestine while they were there...well over 400 hundred villages were depopulated and then destroyed.
Eddie, I know that is a bs map because it says ownership on it. Britain and the UN did a survey and found Arabs owned 20% of Palestine. That map is bogus. Palestine was never a state, the region was under Turkish rule, then British rule. It was never Arab land. The Arabs did not accept having 400,000 Arabs under Jewish rule. The Arabs went to war before the evacuation. The evacuation was mainly because they listened to Mullahs about getting out of the way until the war was over. Bad advice. They lost the war. Had the Arabs won, there would probably not be a Jew living free in the region today. Had the Arabs accepted the partition and not been intolerant, no villages would have been destroyed. When someone makes bad choices, there are consequences. Arabs should stop looking back, they lost. Time to look to the future. Unfortunately I don't think they are capable.
Glo, I'm not sure how this post turned into another thread about Israel. And I see a lot of people on the left say Israel is bad, but no viable solutions are made. Going back to the 67 borders will stop what? Can a chicken negotiate with a crocodile when it is in the crocodiles mouth?
I'm also an Atheist Jew. It is simple to explain. Judaism is a culture as well as a religion.
ReplyDeleteGood vid.
I'm putting up a link to your blog tonight at mine.
Renegade, you once commented on my blog last year sometime, I happened to go to that post today and that is how I found your blog:)

ReplyDeleteThat's funny. I like the "Bible Dude" sketches from Mad TV, but I can't seem to find them online. Help beaj!
ReplyDeleteHalf the Jews I know just keep the god idea around so they can have someone to argue with in their prayers.
ReplyDeleteI love George Carlin. I have an ongoing debate in my mind as to who is the more convincing atheist entertainer: Carlin or Penn.
ReplyDeleteTry to deny the history all you want. We existed, we were there, and we wont forget

ReplyDeleteJack daniels and watching baseball while posting, bad mix.
If you aren't drinking while you watch baseball it is like watching paint dry.
ReplyDeleteRemember when Homer Simpson tried to watch baseball sober?
