Carlton D'metrius Pearson: Christianity refuses to "let Him go"
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche: God is dead; God remains dead and we have killed Him…
Carlton D'metrius Pearson: Many People only know Jesus as the mythical fleshly Person; they don’t know Jesus by Spirit or in the Spirit or as Spirit and so they fight for the Idol [Icon in Greek].
United Church of Christ: Describe your Gospel of Inclusion.
Carlton D'metrius Pearson: Well, it's really Basic Universalism, but I couldn't have called it that. I needed another name. I am an Evangelical Pentecostal Fundamentalist and we'd always believed Universalism was wrong, but the Gospel of Inclusion says that the whole world is already Saved; they just don't know that. If Salvation is a Reality and People have been Saved, the question becomes "Have they been Saved from God or for each other?"
Carlton D'metrius Pearson: I don’t believe that Jesus came to start a new Religion but only to Reform His own. He was a Jew; He remained fundamentally a Jew, but He extended the Love Factor... He moved from the Literal to the Logical; the Bible says that the Letter kills, but the Spirit gives light:

DOV BAR-LEIB: "Sanctify yourselves for tomorrow, and you will eat flesh!" Huh??
DOV BAR-LEIB: Bachya says that we should not pronounce שָׁנִים as Shanim but as Shnayim which means "two prophets" describing the word הַנִּבְּאִים in this case meaning Eldad and Meidad (those were not their real names).
Meidad: A nickname for one of two people (either one of the sons of Elitzafan ben Parnach Prince of Zevulan for whom the Land for his tribe was apportioned by Yehoshua bin Nun or Qemuel ben Shiftan, Prince of Ephraim also at the time of Yehoshua’s apportionment. See BaMidbar 34). Meidad means Beloved of Water
Revach.net: Rav Schwab answers that the gemara in Sanhedrin [98a] says that when the geula comes, if we are zocheh [deserving] Moshiach will arrive on clouds, if not then Moshiach will come come as a pauper on a donkey. Why? The whole world needs to know that Hashem is bringing the geula and Moshiach has no power by himself. If Bnei Yisroel are Maaminim and Ovdei Hashem then Moshiach can come in grand fashion and we will all place thanks in Hashem and not Moshiach. But if we do not recognize Hashem’s hand, then Hashem will need to send a Moshiach who is powerless and destitute to show that it is not his charisma, brains, or money that will release us from the galus.
Moshe was the Goel in Mitzrayim. Bnei Yisroel was not zocheh and Moshe came riding into town on a donkey lacking any pomp or grandeur. He came with the stick in his hand and the shirt on his back. To show his poverty he should have asked Bnei Yisroel to pay for his donkey. Even then he did not, since he did not want to take anything from any member of Klal Yisroel

jacobinesque: A man came across a beach covered in starfish that had washed ashore. Further along he saw a boy throwing the starfish back into the ocean. “What are you doing?” he asked the boy. The boy responded “The tide is going out and if the starfish don’t get back into ocean they will die.”“But there are thousands of starfish on this beach!” the man said. “You can’t possibly save them all. Even if you worked all day, it wouldn’t make a difference.”The boy picked up another starfish and threw it into the ocean. “It made a difference to that one.”
That starfish was Albert Einstein.

متى: فَأَيُّ مَنْ أَرَادَ أَنْ يُخَلِّصَ نَفْسَهُ، يَخْسَرُهَا؛ وَلكِنَّ مَنْ يَخْسَرُ نَفْسَهُ لأَجْلِي، فَإِنَّهُ يَجِدُهَا
מַתִּתְיָהוּ: כי מי שמנסה להציל את חייו - יאבד אותם ואילו מי שיוותר על חייו למעני – ימצא אותם
Mohammad Reza Naqdi: the destruction of Israel is non-negotiable
שָׁאוּל: ואז כל עם-ישראל ייוושע ככתוב ובא לציון גואל ולשבי פשע ביעקב
aide: the prime minister will host consultations
If Y’all don’t choose life,
But choose Death, instead of life,
Life will choose, for Y’all.
מֹשֶׁה: הַעִדֹתִי בָכֶם הַיּוֹם אֶת הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֶת הָאָרֶץ הַחַיִּים וְהַמָּוֶת נָתַתִּי לְפָנֶיךָ הַבְּרָכָה וְהַקְּלָלָה וּבָחַרְתָּ בַּחַיִּים לְמַעַן תִּחְיֶה אַתָּה וְזַרְעֶךָ

Silent Partnership
Ismar Schorsch: The transmission of culture cannot be done on the cheap.
Ismar Schorsch: Leah bore Issachar before Zebulun (Genesis 30:16–20). What prompted Jacob to speak of Zebulun first? The tribe of Issachar would one day be sedentary, devoting itself wholly to the study of Torah. From its midst would spring the teachers, scholars and judges who would imbue society with the spirit of Torah. Hence, Jacob lavishes praise on Issachar. In contrast, Zebulun is depicted as mercantile and mobile, a rank of a lower order in a culture of learning. And yet, Jacob speaks of them first because their wealth is earmarked to support the studies of Issachar. The merchants of Zebulun are the silent partners, the great enablers that ensure the transmission of Judaism.

Christopher Lee Cornell: I believe that we should just wage jihad under our own orders and plan attacks and everything. I believe we should meet up and make our own group in alliance with the Islamic State here and plan operations ourselves.

Miguel Augusto Gabriel J. Syjuco: Marina Bay Sands (2010, by Moshe Safdie), the most expensive building complex in the world ($4.7 billion). Its three 55-storey towers house 2,651 luxury rooms and the Sky Park, with its spectacular infinity pool that vanishes into Singapore’s skyline. #singapore #marinabaysands #moshesafdie #architecture #archiporn #archilovers #ic_architecture

Jonathan Goldstein: There was very little non-commercial interaction, such as dating and marriage between Jews and Chinese or, for that matter, between Russian, Central European, and Baghdadi Jews in Shanghai.

Jordan Pisey Windle: We slept in baskets hanging from the ceiling.
Jordan Pisey Windle: I was born in a small village in the province of Prey Veng, Cambodia. My birth parents died when I was a baby. I was placed in an orphanage in Phnom Penh, the Capital of Cambodia, when I was just a year old. I lived in the orphanage until I was two;
