Lisa:
I see Zelhar.
You say you're secular. What's your view of G-d and the foundation of Judaism. I'm very interested in what you think, since your posts are always excellent.
Thanks.
Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
Lisa, please go off on Tiger for me in a royal manner.
Lisa:
Well Dr. Brennan Fan, if you insist...
This Tiger Woods was married to probably the most beautiful woman on the planet, and he threw it away on a bunch of hideous hookers. Have you seen pictures of those disgusting floozies? They all look like monkeys compared to Ellin Nordregen (no offense to monkeys)!
Now granted the men on the forum will probably insist that it's natural for men to want variety. If I had a dime for every time a man told me that men are "visual creatures," I would be rich by now.
Also don't get me wrong when I call those bimbos he went with hideous. The fact is, they are hideous. And even if they weren't hideous, it's still no excuse for anyone to cheat on his wife and destroy his family. This Tiger Woods had it all, yet he chose to throw it away.
I also heard on the radio the other morning that Tiger refused to wear condoms when he cavorted with these whores. In fact, one of them said she was scared to have sex with Tiger because of that. (Yet she went ahead and did so anyway.)
So now what some people might be wondering is if it was just a matter of the fame and fortune (courtesy of rich white people) going to Tiger's head. Or was it just another example of Third World ghetto behavior.
I'm inclined to believe it's just another example of ghetto behavior, when you factor in the drugs, the refusal to practice "safe" sex, and the whole business of paying for sex.
futuramark:
Why doesn't Tiger Woods stick to his own race...is he admitting the white race is prettier I wonder...same goes for all other N's.

I am trying to sum it up compactly:
I believe, or assume G-d, however I am also pretty much convinced that G-d is impossible to prove logically, it's like in logic there may be truths that are unprovable (maybe you heard of Gödel's incompleteness theorems).
I also think that I have a sort of proof that there is some kind of entity that is the creator of the universe, however at least by my logic, it is consistent that this entity is not sentient. We actually had a rather interesting thread on this issue a few months back in the Hebrew forum.
So the only valid way to confirm G-d exists is that he reveals this truth to us mortals. Judaism is pretty much founded on the belief that such event had actually occurred- on mount Sinai in front of numerous witnesses. And the claim is that the Torah itself and the people of Israel who pass this testimony from one generation to the next in an unbroken link are the proof to that this is indeed a historic event and among other things it proves G-d exists. It is surely impossible to disprove this claim, but frankly I don't think it is a proof either.
Personally I am not convinced enough to accept this claim as a fact. I actually think the Torah and the Tanakh were written by humans. It is nonetheless rather historically accurate, because it is evident from the text itself that there is no attempt to cover inconvenient details, like for example the story of David and Batsheva. In fact I think since G-d is also the G-d of the History and destiny it would be sacrilege for a Hebrew scribe to lie and fake.
But I also think that in certain cases, much of the texts were written long after the said event and so the report is far less accurate. That's why the stories of Genesis and Exodus are more mythical, while for example Judges, Samuel, and Kings are much more accurate.
