Who are the chosen people?

Writer Naomi Wolf wrote something very interesting (article got removed so later I linked to a different website) on who the chosen people actually are, who chose them and to do what:

Quoting: 

IF you visit those imprisoned…act mercifully to the widow and the orphan…welcome the stranger in your midst…tend the sick…do justice and love mercy ….and perform various other tasks…THEN YOU WILL BE MY PEOPLE AND THIS LAND WILL BE YOUR LAND.

So “my people” is not ethnic — it is transactional. We are God’s people not by birth but by a way of behaving, that is ethical, kind and just. And we STOP being “God’s people” when we are not ethical, kind and just."

Was Jesus the Chosen One? The Buddha? Muhammad? Neo perhaps?

Are the Jews the Chosen People? Z!onists seem to think so. But are they actually Jews? If so... what of their (not so secret) bond with the actual nazis? Who also considered themselves to be 'the chosen people'.

Why do z!ionists disobey the ancient Jewish laws and even deny Judaism is a religion?

Who or what do you think is meant by 'The Chosen'?

Do 'the chosen' have their own land? And what if other people live there?

It really shouldn't matter where and when someone's ancestors were born. Giving someone more or less human rights based on their ancestry or their chosen religion, skin colour, etc. should be something from the past by now.

Why can't it be simple? 

Anyone who considers themselves to be Jewish, Palestinian or Ukrainian is one. Same goes for 'man', 'woman' or whatever. If someone has a problem with how you like to be called, it's théir problem.

Is someone more or 'real' 'English' if not only the person self was born in England but also that person's grandparents? As opposed to someone who just received an English passport?

Maybe people could finally realise we are all descendants from the same group of ancestors, dating back some 100,000 years in what now is known as the continent of Africa. Either way, it's very interesting to read about all the different viewpoints. And mostly it's a little more than that.  

Basically speculation based on thin evidence and hear say. Not to mention the hundreds or even thousands of years old stories that some consider 'fact', while often whole bits are lost in translation and over time. Guess it's why it's called 'believing' and not 'knowing'. 

Several peoples have called themselves 'the chosen' but none of those can provide evidence to base that claim on. 

Maybe people should give it a rest and put as much effort in living peacefully together as putting effort in denying the claims of others.

Me-time

All the time you have is 'me-time'. i.e. You decide how to spend that time. And choices have consequences. In some countries and era's that would mean you would die from hunger if you decide not to work but enjoy 'me-time'.

Being selfish is not the right way to go about life.

Hence I work for my money. I don't mean to buy a house, waiting for the market and to sell it for a profit. I also don't mean seeing the shares I bought from my daddy's money rise in value. To me using a lot of money as start capital to trade in real estate and stocks is not 'work' but 'being privileged'.

One of my jobs is actor. That means you have to audition, unless - based on past merits - the producer specifically asks for you.

Going on an audition is like going on a first date: you're excited to go but would rather not. And there are other candidates for the part.

What do or did you do for work? Or do you live of 'old money'?

Being bored. How to do it.

Honestly, I don't remember if I have ever been bored. But I heard some good things about it. So how is it done?

Do you simply slump on the couch and forget about the two days of dishes? How do you forget your child asked you to help them with their homework? Can you really forget your handicapped neighbour could use a bit of help? Even with something simple like changing their bedsheets or cutting their toe nails? Is it possible to forget the promise to yourself that you would clear out the shed this weekend? 

Do you really have the time to spend a few hours feeling sorry for yourself because you're bored but don't have the time to write a piece on how much you despise racism?

Of course you are never bored, just like me. You don't belong to the 63% who is regularly bored, right? 

But if you do: what's your main reason for being bored?

Basic knowledge

They don't know the difference between a transvestite and a non-binary person. But shout 'their opinion' on the subject concerned.

They don't know the difference between reflection and refraction and get angry when you ask them not to shout 'their opinion' on the subject concerned.

Rotation and gravity are just 'difficult words' to them. Hence you find a lot of Flat Earthers among them:

All the stupid remarks from wappies come from a lack of knowledgde. What makes them stupid is not the lack of knowledge but comes from their willingness to be and stay ignorant.

When sane people like you and I don't know something, we express our willingness to learn. We don't pretend we know all about it while only repeating the soundbites from our favourite populiststs. Or do you?

50 Completely true things

Thanks to several friends, I came across this brilliant piece by Mo Husseini on Medium. It's an extensive list of facts surrounding the Isr4el/P4lestine conflict. 

39 Really ís brilliant. About a dog - or maybe several dogs - that sh*t on the carpet. Of course you can pray for the sh*t to magically disappear or spend the rest of your life screaming and shouting about who is to blame for which part of the pile of sh*t. Or you just clean it up together and move on. 

Fact no. 37 may be my favourite. Because I like facts that shut up agressive idiots:

Interestingly enough the same people who side with f4scists like Bibi are also - just like the n4zis were - fiercely 'anti-woke'. Watching Star Wars they cheer for The Empire and watching The Hunger Games f4scists cheer for The Capitol. In their closed minds the rebels in both franchises are too 'woke'. 

In other words: if the 'hero' is not a white alpha male, wappies cry out 'woke!' Yet they claim to follow Jesus, a long haired and dark skinned hippie in a dress who preached empathy. 

Ask the White, Christian Nationlists ('Nat. C.'s for short. Thanks to Bety Bowers

) who want the church - against the explicit wishes of The Founding Fathers - to lead the state and hang a copy of the Ten Commandments in every classroom in the USA: 'Homosexuality' is not even in the top ten of sins. But lying is. 

What would Jesus have to say about people (and their supporters) who lie and use those lies to get people who are not like them murdered, like this US citizen who was fatally shot in the head by a sniper (an act the US government lets investigate by the very same people who ordered her murder. Reminds me of FIFA investigating corruption within FIFA)?

I'm referring to this headline and article:

Documents attributed to H4mas by J3wish Chronicle, Bild forged: Ynet https://buff.ly/3MGVHYe

So, the z!o's forge documents and use what's in those documents as a good reason to slaughter thousands of people. Got it. Not very 'christian' is you ask me. 

Jesus is the total opposite of self proclaimed savior Elon 'Only alpha males should vote' Musk, who apparently likes Star Trek, one of the most 'woke' franchises ever. As the actor portraying The Doctor subtly told Musk:

 Are you anti-woke or do you side with people who know the meaning of empathy?

Why would any sane person want to live in a society that excludes large groups of people?
