Ask JTF for Sunday, January 17, 2010

<< < (6/7) > >>

Gimatria:
Achi ha yakar, Chaim!
Ma'enyanim? Unfortunately my brother went through with his plan to visit the evil, satanic realm of Disney. Please join me and say a prayer for his soul.
My question this week has to do with a favorite topic of mine - cosmology and astrophysics. As you know, in standard physics models, Einstein stipulated that the speed of light (186,000 miles/sec) is the "speed limit" of the universe. However, in modern physics, astrophysicists like Michio Kaku and others have written much about higher dimensional models - chronicled in detail in books such as "hyperspace". One of the conundrums we encounter in this realm of physics is that if one can "fold" space time, and therefore exceed the "speed limit" conveyed by Einstein, the repercussions visa vis time dilation are staggering - namely, that it can allow for time travel.
In the meantime, this subject remains largely relegated to science fiction. However...do you think it will ever be possible? Stephen Hawking once remarked "if time travel is possible, where are all the tourists from the future?"

If by some breakthrough in science time travel became possible, and you could visit one person from the past (let's say before 1900), who would it be and why?

Toda Raba Chaim for indulging my curiosity.
Your disciple,
Gimatria

imaknick:
Why do you think Al Sharpton did not accuse Harry Reid as a racist? should Harry reid step down for his comments?  Also what was your opinion of Trent lott and Strom  thurmon?

christians4jews:

2)can you explain the significance and meaning of the story of lot and his wife in the torah?

3) do you still keep in contact with craig winn and will you do any more videos with him???

Maimonides:
Shalom Chaim and Thank you as always for your hard work and for answering my questions.

What do you think of Israel sending help to Haiti? The Israeli government is sending medical teams to rescue people. Do you think that there is anything good that could come out of this for Israel? Perhaps Israeli medical teams could gain valuable medical experience by operating on people in an emergency situation?

Fighting For Truth:
Shalom Chaim,

What is your views about Theodor Herzl who founded Modern Zionism? The reason I ask this is because since he was really an Atheist and not a believer of Judaism, what were your views about him since you yourself believe in the Jewish faith?

Thank you.
