Dear Mr. Ben Pesach:
I find the theological rationale for wearing kippa or a yamaka, observing Kosher law, and observing the Sabbath very appealing; this is because I believe such observances are truly effective in fostering righteous behavior and wise decisions: your mind is constantly redirected towards your belief in Hashem when confronted with a decision or sinful temptation. Christians tried to encourage such mindful reflections with the WWJD bands.
My question: What is available to gentiles who are more susceptible to temptation that will aid in keeping us externally mindful of Hashem?
Gd Bless you Chaim and Gd Bless the Jews

Maimonides:
Shalom Chaim and Thank you as always for your hard work and for answering my questions.
How should righteous Jews react to Shalom Achshav Jews who chant "one bullet for every settler"?
How did HaRav Meir Kahane, zecher tzadik livracha, deal with Shalom Achshav Jews when they protested his rallies and became violent?
What is your opinion of Yonah Avrushm who threw a live grenade at Shalom Achshav Jews in 1983 that resulted in one of them being killed?
Irish Zionist:
Shalom Chaim
Do you think as well as I do, that Hamas, Iran and other nazi muslim beasts objecting to these "so called" peace agreements between Israel and PLO nazi's is in some way is a nazi plan by having their cake and eating it? In one way they want Israel to give up more land, but want an excuse to continue to attack Israel saying they were always against it.
When the Kahanists take power, will you sentence all these Jewish traitors to serve long term sentences?
How were The Jews able to revive the forgotten Hebrew language and place it into words after 2,000 years?
How many months are in The Jewish calender and do they have names?
Why does Gd need a name?
Gd Bless You, Your Loved Ones, The Chosen People and Happy Jewish New Year.
Bryan.

Hello Dear Chaim, (:
What would you say about Chassidic Music? There are lots of Rabbis who say that music in general is not aloud (for Jews) after the 2nd Temple was destroyed, if not for Mitzva puposes -- such as Bar-Mitzva celebration, Marriage, Circumcision, finishing a Massechet, etc..
Also, many Chassidic singers today tend to immitate Pop Stars like the Pop Stars of Umut Ha'Olam -- with lights and smoke on stage, body poses, motions, colors, fireworks, dancing, orchestras. advertising, fan clubs, etc. -- which make the whole performance quite similar to the definition of "Ellilut" (Idolatry) according to the Talmud. These singers are often called by the public "Ellilei HaZemer" (Singing Idols). What is your opinion about all this matter, and is there some so-called "Chassidic Music" that you personally like?
Thank you and Shavu'a Tov as always, and Chatima Tova ! :)
Gam Bashan veGam Gil'ad.
