Which camp do you belong to?
« on: June 08, 2009, 02:39:28 PM »
please explain your viewpoint...Evolution vs. Creationism and racial intermarriage are hot topics on the forum...Combining the two I am curious to see who belongs to which camp.


I believe that races of the same culture and religion can intermarry...by race that includes whites, blacks, mongoloids...
I believe evolution MIGHT be an answer of HOW Gd creates the diversity of life.

I believe in personal choices, so people can chose to intermarry.

This is an unusual question.  Are you thinking that intermarriage opinion is somehow linked to evolution beliefs?

Jews can marry anyone so long as that person is Jewish and of the opposite sex... Other than that I have no opinion. Evolution is a nice theory but it hasn't been proven and there are holes in the theory.
You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities

Naa, i'm just curious... but it can be interesting study to see if there is a correlation between the two...I highly doubt it though...

Not to denegrate our Holy Torah..there are holes in them too..that's why we have the rabbis and talmud to fill those "holes" with Midrashim....and the then the holes in the Talmud filled in with Kabbalah...

There is very little we humans are capable in understanding and interpreting. I do not doubt that Gd created the universe.  However, evolution...maybe not as it is exactly described...but nevertheless, might be an answer of HOW Gd creates life.

I feel the races should better have intermarriage within similar religion and culture and think that evolution is perhaps the design and beneficial game plan within the paradigm of the G_d, which we may or may not understand.

Camp 4. I don't think we should spend too much time arguing about those issues.
