Come On, People!
.
The last standing outer wall of the Holy Temple is one of the holiest places to visit. It is said that whoever prays there, their prayers will be fulfilled, just as King Solomon requested to God that it should be this way.
Many people come with little notes and leave them in the cracks of the wall, as a message to God and a prayer request. These items should never be taken and read and used for profit!
I am so ashamed to learn that Obama's prayer paper was taken and sent to various media outlets for publication. Thank God, many did not publish it.
How sick is that?
It is very reflective of the growing problems that I am seeing here. Lack of Derekh Eretz. A lack of knowing the right path of behavior. Sometimes I worry that we are so concerned to make sure there are no bugs on a piece of lettuce, that we forget the laws regarding man towards man. *sigh*

Mommy Advice -What Do You Say?

Is it okay to call a child who loves to talk and ask questions, a chatterbox? Could that become a stigma? Is that a stretch?

Quantum Physics Anyone?
.
I really would like to understand Quantum Physics. In particular the idea that photons can turn either into waves or particles -but only when no one is looking!!! Even if a scientist is trying to track it. It seems to know how to "wait" and switch. You can read more about it here.
sigh. So much to learn. Is there a chip one can put into my head and I can download this information? lol

Just Musing
Why Do Blacks Flock to Islam?
.
After the Christian Black Churches, the other place of worship where I see an overwhelming amount of African Americans are in Islam. Why not New Age? Why not Judaism? Why Islam? And why does Islam carry the cresent moon as its symbol? Why have African Americans begun to talk harshly to one another, almost crass? Where does black hatred comes from and what can be done about it.
I believe all these questions can be answered via Torah, Talmud, and the Holy Zohar. But rather than write a book as some suggested and also rather than leaving tidbits info on peoples comment section when such topic come up, I will first create a blog whereas I can brainstorm on the issue. I'll leave it open for comments but its not really meant to be a public blog, just NOTES.

In other news...
In the recent Economist magazine, I read that last year Abu Yahye Al-Libi, a prominent al -Qaeda leader, gave six tips to wage ideological warfare. But I can't seem to find that video. Does anyone know of this?
