I don't know either way, both ways are compatable with the Torah, but 1 question for the "billions of years"
 What was the purpose of G-D making such a long stretch?
 I did recieve an answer about this, but i'm not convinced. I was told that humans were not the main purpose and reason for creation, that their are higher beings.

 LOL, That was good. But his main (or strong) argument at least here (greater details and other things in his book (I read most of it, but forgot what I read), but in the video he makes the point of layers of rock and where the dinosaur follils were found. All in the same layers.

 A lot of what he says is true and good (and I'm the one posting his video's), but also some of the things he says is wrong. You would also agree with me on this as well. For example reincarnation and the proof he brought for it. It was very weak, he shows a video from a Druze kid claiming to be someone else.
 If one believes in it, yes its concincing otherwise one can see the fallacy of the propaganda clip that the Druze made because that is part of their religion and they want the people to believe in it. Soo then they took their clip and put it part of the Torah lecture as a proof, the truth is otherwise.

Tag-MehirTzedek:
I just came across this (I saw it before in a different R' Amnon Yitzhak video).

2:27:30 those verses are talking about RESSURECTION, and NOT reincarnation. Also that video of the Druzi is probably a fake, its not convincing, the Druze beleive in it, soo they made it.

--- Quote from: Dan Ben Noah on April 23, 2012, 10:16:45 PM ---Yes, I agree that Rabbi Amnon Yitzhak has a lot of good things to say but I have also found questionable things about him so I haven't really stepped on his bandwagon even though he does seem to attract the crowds.  For example, he has some questionable beliefs on Zionism from some of the things I've seen, on the other hand he really tore into a Neturei Karta heretic once.  Similarly, I like some of the videos that this Rabbi Asher Meza puts out but not all of them so I would not associate fully with him.

 Basically agreed. One thing on zionism though, I believe he is agains't the same people we are against here and refers to them as the "zionists". You would probably not refer to them as "Zionists", but leftist anti-zionists. Besides the NK, where he crushed him, I also remember him saying that those rich people (I believe in North Tel-Aviv) should invite the Arabs to their places instead of telling and forcing simple Jews to deal with them and give up their land(or something like that). Also he said that the peace plan would not work.
  BUT on the other hand his plan for saving Israel is (partly) correct and partly not. His kiruv and preaching is vital, yes. He does say Israel needs to make Teshuva, BUT we differ with what type of Teshuva. We definitly must make Teshuva in things like Shabbath, Tefillin and the personal Miswoth. BUT we also need to make national Teshuva as well and go back to the Torah in ALL its laws, including the laws of war and the running of the state properly according to Torah law (everyting with time or course). That I beleive he fails to mention and articulate (or even perhaps have in his conscious).
