    The Biblical handling of sexual violation really needs to be brought back. Which pornographers and Hollywood need to be dealt with. These things are more common than what the public knows as it goes unheard so often. If someone looks up the stats, they might be inclined to want to know why they're not informed of so much.

    I'm a humanist Jew. Relatively secular. But this Rabbi...... While I strongly disagree with the Orthodox perception of reality and interpretation of Tanach, Rabbi YY stands apart from most of his peers. He's special. He doesn't let interpretation, or dogma get in the way of his humanity. His understanding of humans on an emotional and psychological level is extraordinary and I believe sometimes hard to find in the Orthodox world. Can't imagine him ever using a threat of Gehenna against someone like I sometimes hear, or leaving someone out to dry and just telling them "because Hashem says so". He understands the weight of accepting the claim that Tanach is the word of God and that is no small thing. Especially when it comes to the young. I stopped believing in anything supernatural or mythical when I was around 9 or 10, before I even had my Bar Mitzvah, so I am not a good example, as this something I am incapable of accepting, so I can't imagine how it must be for those who do accept that. Especially the young. The pressure, the responsibility, the weight of those feelings. And Rabbi YY understands this and uses it to help and empower instead of using it against individuals who struggle. So not only is he an amazing Rabbi, but an amazing community leader. Really, great respect. All Orthodox communities should be so lucky. A mench above the ordinary.

    @@gabrielmondragon7317 Thank you. But I never left Judaism I would say. I just don't believe that Tanach is the direct and literal word of Hashem. And I don't believe that Moses was actually, like in real life, handed Torah at Mt. Sinai. I still believe in Hashem. Tanach makes many very insightful deductions, one of which is that you can't get something from nothing. And since things exist, there must be an eternal source to that existence. This is easy to accept as true. But I would also suggest we can't possibly know anything more about that entity than the simple fact that "it", or "he" if you want, must exist. Beyond that we are ignorant. And so were our ancestors. In my opinion of course. And according to all the actual verifiable evidence. But I mean, evidence shmevidence I guess. I suggest I am completely ignorant in regard to the mind and wants and motives of Hashem, and so were all humans forever. And our ancestors did their best to understand the unknowable. And they gave us some good texts so we don't have to start at the beginning. It's more a matter of, I couldn't possibly believe things like resurrection was real. And neither did many of our ancient ancestors, like the Sadducees. The Sadducees, who in many ways, overlap in belief with the majority of modern Jews today. Just in that they also didn't accept the supernatural, resurrection, a physical messiah, a conscious afterlife, and basically all of the supernatural superstition. I mean, they were also legal authoritarians and corrupt. But I'm not suggesting most modern Jews are Sadducees. Just that some of their actual beliefs overlap. Just like the Rabbinical tradition takes from both Pharisaic and Essene Judaism. And of course all modern Judaism is influenced by the Rabbinic traditions. Which is what they are, traditions, of one variety. But statistically at least, it seems only about 20-30% of modern Jews believe in the 13 principles and even try to adhere to the Rabbinic tradition, or believe that Tanach is the literal and direct word of Hashem. And of that 30% only about 10% are Orthodox, around the world. Meaning only 10% believe, theoretically, fully in the 13 principles and try to adhere to them, and the Torah law. The other 20% or so are Conservative. And of that 20%, maybe 10% try to adhere to the principles and practices. And I would say the other half, have a more loose and agnostic take. But still "believe" so to speak. So, I would argue I've never left Judaism. But thank you. And even if I wanted to, I simply could not believe in these things. I could never believe prophecy is real. It would take a blatant miracle in my face, something that overturns the laws of nature as we know them. And it would require me to have never seen all the textual, archaeological, historical, anthropological and genetic evidence that contradicts the biblical narrative. Many of the historical accounts of kernels of truth of course, some even fairly accurate, like certain parts of Kings and what not. But other parts seem to have no real historical basis. Well, sorry, I go on. I'm not trying to change your beliefs, just explaining mine and why, well, believing that a text has divine authorship is simply not something I'm capable of. But Judaism is what Jews do, the common threads that make us Jewish. Jew, from the latin Iudaeus, from the Hebrew Yehudim, meaning a person of the KINGDOM of Judah. Not the tribe specifically nor the diverse religious practices of the people of that Kingdom, called Judaism. And if we go back to just the 1st century, the religious practices, the diversity of practice and belief and interpretation within Judaism, was immense. It was all over the place. Everyone claiming they had the proper interpretation. I mean, this is in part what caused Christianity, along with the corrupt legal authoritarianism coming from the temple aristocracy. And that's anther thing, the text instituted a totally unjust social caste, that really, like all social castes, became completely corrupt and imbalanced over time. I mean we know Kohen for instance are not all descended from one man in the Bronze Age, from a genetic perspective, and that they come from over 21 separate, mostly unrelated male lineages. And when we look at the genetics all we see is evidence that Jews have been living with a 3 tier social caste for 2500 years. And that the origin of that caste, was actually relatively diverse. Meaning, "Levites" weren't the sons of Levi, but just a priestly sect who were inserted in a social hierarchy. And then eventually from that Levitical sect, came the Kohen, who were likely followers of an Aaronide/Zadokite theology. And we kind of see this in Kings with the Josian reforms actually, when he burnt and sacrifficed all the other priests from the other temples, even the other YhwH temples and kind of forced everyone to worship in Jerusalem. And then when they suddenly, miraculously discovered a lost text in the temple, Deuteronomy. I mean..... I know the Orthodox have a different explanation for this, but realistically, this is when Deuteronomy first shows up, when it was first compiled at least and edited and redacted to sort of what we have now. Sorry, anyway.... yea I've just seen to much to have such beliefs. But I still am a part of Judaism. Just not Rabbinic Judaism necessarily, all though I have a great appreciation for the literature and the culture and traditions. But that's what they are to me, traditions. Anyway, thank you for your suggestion.

    @@gabrielmondragon7317 Ah take your time of course. Yes, that is one of those things for sure. I think in the Rabbinic tradition they explain it by suggesting Joshua wrote those parts, closed out the Torah so to speak. Which, I mean, it's a reasonable assumption if you accept the premise of the tradition itself that it comes from Moses. definitely. There are just so many things. And I've read some of the Rabbinic literature and I see that Rabbis themselves have struggled with certain contradictions lets say, or oddities, anachronisms, and really they do an amazing job at least attempting to explain these things within the context of the belief. I am sure Orthodox struggle with this often too. There is also the issue I think, well, of the laws themselves, relative to our standard today. Scholarship would suggest there is reason to believe the biblical narrative shows a progression from a more primitive variety of belief, henotheism to an eventual monotheism. Which would correlate with what we know of the history of the region and mediterranean in general. Polytheism/henotheism was the norm. Putting one god above the other gods. And when I read the text, I mean, that the sense I get , and scholars I think mostly agree, that the older bits show a God contending with other Gods. One that gets jealous and vengeful. I must admit, I always found it odd that an omnipotent and omniscient being could get jealous, spiteful, vengeful, that he would dole out reward and punishment and contest his own creation. This always confused me I suppose and was one of the aspects that led me to seeing it allegorically and mythologically rather than historically. All though there are certainly historical truths in there, perhaps sometimes under layers of lore. Well. Anyway, thank you for responding. Do appreciate it. I think belief is one thing, lifestyle is another. Sometimes they go together very well. But sometimes not. And I don't think a life without such structure is for everyone. Certainly, the Orthodox life is time tested, proven, regardless of what I think about the beliefs themselves. So I judge no one who chooses such a lifestyle regardless of disagreement of interpretation.

    @@jessereichbach588 Okay that one I read a bit more, I agree. Not just the first name being plural, but many other things. Even in the Christian translations, the term gods is used many times. American Krogan did a series called "The Visigoths and the Jews" where he discusses the ancient Syro-Palestinian pantheon, and Yode-Hei-Vav-Hei was prince of the godds, and fought his way up to become El Elyon, King Of The Gods. When Moshe has the wizard battle with Pharoah's priests and turning staffs to serpents, and Exodus in general, often shows how '' was displaying superior strength. Krogan says King James changed the story in translation to make this battle for power among the gods instead the line of kings fighting to be like gods. Idk if it's on youtube, I'll see if I can link it. There's a book about the ancient pantheon of nomadic Jews as well.

    This topic is shunned and therefore we should discuss more. It's acceptable to be an alcoholic in these days. But, labeled with sexual addiction and you are the worst pariah, when it's really vanilla ice cream to another's strawberry ice cream. it's all ice cream. all addiction share one thing in common: shame of oneself. I must take exception dear, Rabbi Jacobson with your point about Abraham's respect for his father, Terah. We may or may not know the house that Terah grew up in. It probably was a shambles like the house that Abraham grew up in. So I would hope, at a minimum, that Abraham showed respect to his father, as his father. And through HaShem's kindness maybe Terah would reform his ways. There are so many broken families. Connections, seemingly superficial and on the surface, might be the only way you can stay connected with your parents. And that's ok because through your goodness, you might shine light on them.
