Hi from the South
« on: July 22, 2007, 12:54:28 AM »
Hi,
I was brought up in the South (US) as a Catholic, but I try to live a relatively Jewish life now. I don't wear deodorant except when I go shopping because I think all deodorants are unsafe and ultimately shorten one's lifespan.  I wouldn't even wear it to go shopping except that I don't want to be banned from stores. I'd rather live in New York or London or Jerusalem for a number of reasons. I've thought of actually converting to Judaism before, and I suppose I still might. I'm very sympathetic to the Jewish people, and think I might be descended from Jewish people although, of course, that's pure speculation on my part. I feel Jewish, somehow, although I guess that could just be my imagination. I feel more connected psychically, spiritually, intellectually to the Jewish and British people than to my fellow Americans.  I'm not espousing British Isrealism, it's just that I feel I'd fit in more in the UK or Israel.  That's probably my upbringing, in part.
Anyway, thanks for this forum.  I look forward to reading about various things here.
Shalom.

Shalom, Lefty.

I'm not a Jew, either. I was also born into a catholic home, but I now follow the 7 laws of Noah as gentiles are instructed in Torah.......... so that makes me a Ben Noach or Noachide Chassid. Have you herd of the Sheva Mitzvot (7 Laws)?

Hi Lefty, you seem like a very interesting person.  I'm looking forward to getting to know you more and hearing your opinions on things.  Welcome to the forum.

In thy power Almighty, trusting,
Did our fathers build of old;
Strengthen then, O Lord, their children
To defend, to love, to hold
That the heritage they gave us
For our children yet may be:
Bondsmen only to the Highest
And before the whole world free.
As our fathers trusted humbly,
Teach us, Lord, to trust Thee still:
Guard our land and guide our people
In Thy way to do Thy will.

Welcome. 

Regarding deodorants, you can find good ones at health food stores that don't have talc.  Try it.

Some studies have shown talc to be carcinogen.

Welcome, lefty!

Yes, they thought that aluminum in antiperspirants had some link to alzheimer's and recommended using deodorant instead. There's a lot of debate on the issue.

Could be that as well.  I'll have to do some research.

Aluminum causing alzheimers, that rings a bell.

How do the arabs manage to stink AND go crazy?
