How I Stopped Being a Jew


"I'm living in the Israeli state. I'm living in Telavive, most of my life. Now – Israel defines itself as a Jewish state –, I'm living in a Jewish state that a quarter of the population are not defined as Jews, by the minister of the interior... 20% of Arab Israelians, I'm not speaking about the occupied territories, I'm speaking about citizens in the state of Israel; 5% of emigrants dissident from East Europe who were not from Jewish mothers, together [they are] 25% of the population of Israel [...], not considered Jews. But Israel defines itself as a Jewish state... And most of the Jewish in the world accept it. And most of the establishment (Jewish) communities in the world, not only accept it, are very, very happy with it.
Imagine that tomorrow, Britain decides to define itself as an English state, or a Christian English state. How long will it exist, your kingdom? Great Britain? How long? If it defines itself, not as a state, a kingdom of all the British but only of the English. How would the Scotts feel? How would the Welsh feel? How would the children of the emigrants that became British citizens feel? They would feel like Arab israelis are feeling in Israel. They are living, walking, dying in a state that considers itself the state of Woody Allen, not of them. [...] Continuing to be a Jew, today, in Israel, is immoral, because a Jew in the state of Israel is a privileged citizen. And I don't speak about the occupied territories... 47 years... A population without any political or civic rights. [...] If I define myself as a Jew, because of the past, because of the memory... in some way the nazis won. Why? Because they consider the Jews as an essentialist figure in History."

Is human consciousness creating reality? - Biocentrism

A new study claims networks of observers are responsible for determining physical reality.

The scientists propose that observers generate the structures of time and space.
The paper could help yield insights into the God Equation, which attempts to unify quantum mechanics and general relativity. Here

A Gente Que Não Lê

Rui Veloso- A Gente Não Lê


Ai senhor das furnasQue escuro vai dentro de nós

Rezar o terço ao fim da tardeSó para espantar a solidãoRogar a deus que nos guardeConfiar-lhe o destino na mão
Que adianta saber as marésOs frutos e as sementeirasTratar por tu os ofíciosEntender o suão e os animaisFalar o dialecto da terraConhecer-lhe o corpo pelos sinais
E do resto entender malSoletrar assinar em cruzNão ver os vultos furtivosQue nos tramam por trás da luz
Ai senhor das furnasQue escuro vai dentro de nósA gente morre logo ao nascerCom olhos rasos de lezítiaDe boca em boca passar o saberCom os provérbios que ficam na gíria
De que nos vale esta purezaSem ler fica-se pederneiraAgita-se a solidão cá no fundoFica-se sentado à soleiroA ouvir os ruídos do mundoE a entendê-los à nossa maneira
Carregar a superstiçãoDe ser pequeno ser ninguémE não quebrar a tradiçãoQue dos nossos avós já vem

As Terças com Morrie

 Morrie Shwartz, sociólogo, que trabalhou durante vários anos com Frieda Fromm-Reichmann, morreu na .sequência de uma esclerose lateral amiotrófica.

Resolveu partilhar com quem quisesse, o seu processo de morte.
Mitch Albom, um seu antigo aluno, publicou o livro, As Terças com Morrie.
Ted Koppel também o foi entrevistando regularmente até ao fim.
"Identify the way in which you want to die. With fear, sorrow, rage, gentleness, acceptance, welcoming, denial, with awe or serenity.
You may go through each of those responses, but try to dig deep for your courage and stick with the one you want most..."
