Dear Zeo; When I was a senior at Florida University in 1976 I took an advanced religious course and the text’s author was Hannah Arendt. I never understood anything in the course. Roger says that Hannah doesn’t believe in metaphysical truths. I believe that metaphysical truths are the basis of all reality. A simple description of the root metaphysical truth is: • The metaphysical reality is that we are each the leading actor in the Great Movie the Revealed Path & we are to struggle through the fire to be an empty cup so that the Script-Writer/Producer/Director (God) can gift us with the good knowledge our heart most earnestly desires.
What an absolutely phenomenal interview - you were both so great and I learned so much. I found the whole framing of being Jewish, both through you and Arendt resonates with my own experience as a Jew. Moreover, the nuance of your non-polarizing conversation is similar to the way that work as an eco-artist. I explore Climate Change as change, rather than through the political lens of environmentalism. I also believe in hope and love, and in the future of younger generations who are demonstrating innovative ways to cope with Climate Change, as well as new possibilities for being with the natural world.
Our lives our finite, our understanding is ultimately finite, although together we can get closer to the truth. We know the concept of infinity even though we will never fully calculate infinite. Infinity is a true concept. Truth is by definition objective. This was all covered over 2k years ago by Plato--Arendt's philosophy is perfectly in line as described here.

Zionism: do only Jews NOT have a right to private property that they purchased from owners, the owners being Turks and Arabs? Most people, when they purchase land or a house, have the right to "occupy" the land or house that they purchased. Zionism: can Jews owning a private property in the area around Judea, the Judean Hills and Judean mountains, choose to live under a secular democratic form of Govt, with a Jewish ethical Foundation, and choose not to live under Sharia, since Islamic Law says that Muslims MUST subjugate and humiliate Jews, or else kill them if they resist. The answer to these questions explain why anti-Zionism is hatred of Jews, if the answer is that Jews do NOT possess any private property rights if Arabs or Muslims say that they don't, after collecting money for selling their land to Jewish families, and that Jews, unlike Hindus or Christians or anyone else, have NO LIBERAL RIGHT to reject being subjugated under 7th century Sharia, and the edicts of Islamic scholars.

Only if you think that Jews don't have any right to own private property they purchased and don't have any right to live in a region near Muslims without being subjugated by Sharia.

Obey My Voice Part 2 The Place of Life (Gen 2:9, Gen 3:22, Gen 3:24) Is the foremost in importance (G4413), “the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast” (Mt 25:10) “Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. “When once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, open to us,’ then he will answer you, ‘I do not know where you come from.’” (Lk 13:24-30), ie the narrow gate, and “we will travel the wide way that leads to destruction” (Mt 7:13-14) in the abode of contiguity (G2078) in the hind (H310), the domain of the recompense, the Fire. “Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” (Matthew 3:10) “The ones who hear the word and accept it, will bear fruit” (Mk 4:20) And “return to the Lord our God” (Dt 4:30, Jer 3:22) and “Obey His Voice” (Ex 19:2-6) then we will travel “through the fire” (Gen 3:24, Num 31:23, Is 43:2) and with “God’s gifts of blessings” (Genesis 22:18, Dt 28:2) we will “enter the Kingdom of Heaven" (Lk 12:32, Mt 3:2, Mt 4:17, Luke 4:43). People Esteem God So Little “Since all creatures are void, how is it that they can so easily turn a person from God? Is not the soul in its smallest particle of greater worth than heaven and all the creatures? Meister Eckert answers “It is due to the fact that people esteem God so little. If people esteemed God as they should, it would be almost impossible for them ever to fall from grace” ~Meister Eckhart Passion for Creation Pg 83 Hence vision is through the veil “The glories of the face are the rays of the Essence. When they are deployed, the entities of the possible things become manifest, so the possible things are the veil between us and the glories. Will the eating be of the Tree of Knowledge or of the Tree of Life? When at the instant of the reception, the moment of being swept away by the storyline, being clothed in the robes of lordliness, being taken spiritually and psychologically by a new event, a new divine name, whatever its nature and composition, if we take with the light of creature then we will taste wretchedness in the after (the contiguity). But if we take with the light of affirmation then we will experience nearness and felicity in the next world, the hereafter. Foremost In Importance And The Contiguity Jesus carefully chose these 2 “words” to assist us in learning the nature and reality of 2 spiritual and psychological domains, abodes which dominate every second of our lives. The understanding of the foremost in importance and the contiguity is a great gift of knowledge from our Beloved, for He/She loved to be known (B). The foremost means the first in place; the most advanced, the first in dignity, the most honorable place. The foremost in importance is the place of earning light and knowledge (B). It is when the door is open for those who are awake and who have oil. The contiguity seeks the foremost in importance, but the foremost in importance does not seek the contiguity. Contiguity is the place of recompense for what we were doing in the foremost in importance. Contiguity means touching; meeting or joining; actual contact and it is the psychological and spiritual world where the recompense (B) God discloses to us in the foremost in importance, knowledge and light. If we witness in the knowledge of the taking of the light of affirmation, our heart will gain knowledge and light and grow, and we will experience nearness and Felicity. God's words will come suddenly upon us, and we will travel the path as our God wishes us to. Jesus calls the first part of this spiritual and psychological reality the foremost in importance, AKA the first (Lk 13:24-30, Mt 6:33, Mk 10:33)(G4413) . This ‘first time spark’ is the spiritual place of climbing and earning lights (Mt 5:14-16). “My Lord God, your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Ps 119:105). The foremost in importance (Mt 22:38) is the exact moment of the first step (Psalm 37:23) and the first breath (Psalm 94:11). When we received the word which proceeds from the mouth of God by which we live (Mt 4:4). “Our Lord God would be the light, and He will go before us in the wilderness to show us the way”(DT 1:30-33) when we “Obey His Voice” (Ex 15:26). The second part of this, spiritual, psychological reality is to be held in contiguity, (G2078). It is the abode of recompense for what we were doing in the foremost in importance. You know within yourself as the tasting of wrath, aka the Kingdom of Hell (the wide way) or the light of the nearness and felicity aka the Kingdom of Heaven (the Narrow Gate). When we are in the foremost in importance domain it is very important to “stay awake” (Mt 24:42). This involves building the habit of witnessing that God literally brings forth all things and events of life (Lk 4:4) for the purpose of growing our spiritual heart. Staying awake is to “remember to take oil for our lamp” (Mt 25:4). The taking of oil is witnessing of taking Walk Blamelessly Before Me”, (Gen 17:1) Take of the light of affirmation Isaiah 26:3 NGV You, our Lord God keep us in perfect peace when our mind is stayed on You, because we trust in You our Lord God. Isaiah 40:31 But they who wait for their Lord God will renew their strength; the strugglers in the path of their Lord will mount up with wings like eagles; they will run and not be weary; they will walk and not faint. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Deuteronomy 31:8 It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Genesis 50:20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good The narrow gate is the foremost in importance. (G4413).Is a living God Lev 22:29 I your Lord God will be your hearing and your seeing and all your faculties Ex 4:12, Ex 4:15, Is 51:16, Is 59:21, Lk 21:15, Dt 18:18, Jer 1:9, Mt 28:20 “Obey my voice” (Ex 19:2-6 more) The Lord our God says 145 times in the Bible “Obey My Voice (H6963)” (Gen 3:1, Gen 3:8 Gen 3:10 Gen 3:17 Gen 22:18, Gen 26:5; Ex 3:18 Ex 4:8 Ex 4:9 Ex 5:2 Ex 9:23 Ex 9:28 Ex 9:29 Ex 15:26, Ex 18:19 Ex 19:5; Ex 19:19 Ex 23:22, Numbers 7:89, Numbers 14:22, Dt 4:12, Dt 4:30 Dt 4:33 Dt 4:36 Dt 5:22 Dt 5:23 Dt 5:24 Dt 5:25 Dt 5:26 Dt 6:6, Dt 8:3, Dt 8:20 Dt 9:23 Dt 11:13 Dt 11:18 Dt 13:4 Dt 13:18 Dt 15:5 Dt 18:16 Dt 21:18 Dt 26:14 Dt 26:17 Dt 27:10 Dt 28:1 Dt 28:2 Dt 28:15 Dt 28:45 Dt 28:45 Dt 28:62 Dt 30:2 Dt 30:8 Dt 30:10 Dt 30:20 Joshua 5:6 Joshua 22:2 Joshua 24:24 Judges 2:2 Judges 2:4 Judges 2:20 Judges 6:10 1 Sam 3:11 1 Sam 7:10 1 Sam 12:14 1 Sam 12:15 1 Sam 15:1 1 Sam 15:19 1 Sam 15:20 1 Sam 15:22 1 Sam 28:18 2 Sam 7:22 2 Sam 22:14 1 Kings 19:12 1 Kings 19:13 1 Kings 20:36 2 Kings 18:12 1 Chronicles 17:20 Job 37:5 Job 40:9 Ps 18:13 Ps 29:3 Ps 29:4 Ps 29:5 Ps 29:7 Ps 29:8 Ps 29:9 Ps 46:6 Ps 81:11 Ps 95:7 Ps 103:20 Ps 106:25 Isaiah 6:8 Isaiah 30:20-22 Isaiah 30:30 Isaiah 30:31 Isaiah 40:3 Jer 3:13 Jer 3:25 Jer 5:21 Jer 6:10 Jer 7:23 Jer 7:28 Jer 9:12 Jer 9:13 Jer 10:13 Jer 11:4 Jer 11:7 Jer 16:9 Jer 18:10 Jer 26:13 Jer 32:23 Jer 38:20 Jer 40:3 Jer 42:6 Jer 42:13 Jer 42:21 Jer 43:4 Jer 43:7 Jer 44:23 Jer 51:16 Ezekiel 1:25 Ezekiel 3:10 Ezekiel 12:2 Ezekiel 40:4 Daniel 9:10 Daniel 9:11 Daniel 9:14 Joel 2:11 Joel 3:16 Amos 1:2 Micah 6:9 Haggai 1:12 Zechariah 6:15 Mt 3:17 Mt 4:1, Mt 4:4, Mt 7:24-27; 24 Mt 13:15 Mt 13:16 Mt 17:5 Mk 1:3 Mk 1:11 Mk 8:18 Mk 9:7 Lk 3:4 Lk 3:22, Lk 4:4, Lk 9:35 Lk 14:35)
The early point about moral and political truth is taken but the discussion is confused - truth is never out there or a feature of the world. Truth is an attribute of a statement. The world exhibits facts as states of affairs, many of which are conglomerate ideas in which direct states of affairs are filtered through a set of statements or theories. Truth is attributed by human cognition to our own utterances whether these relate to public or privately accessed states of affairs. Many states of affairs are not easily incommunicable and yet a person can still trust that a private truth is the correct one, an analogy for which might be when I say the music is in tune but a master of music says it is not, and I have failed to perceive within the publicly shared domain what specialised perception makes available to another person but not to me, viz., that the music is out of tune. How the music is appears as a state of affairs, statements about its being in tune or not possess the attribute of truth purely on their coherence with states of affairs. Best to keep these domains clear.
Truth is a projection of human consciousness. It is the result of apprehension and subsequent comprehension and finally description of events as objectively as possible given the limits of our senses and cognition with the intention of providing an uncolored account of what was observed. Scientific truth is seductive because it involves objective measurement and reproducibility of it findings. Most other truths depend on a consensus of observers who are motivated to accurately describe what the experienced with no coloration by emotion or prejudice. We must have some standard of truth in order to be able to accomplish anything.
"Truth is an attribute of a statement"? By what metric better than the reality of what happened? Yes, we can disagree about an event, but that doesn't change the event. Unfortunately, people will manipulate statements to alter perspectives of an event, but that still doesn't change what actually happened "out there as a feature of the world".
“Joan, the Mysterious Life Of The Heretic Who Became A Saint”. By Donald Spoto. this book is a clear example of God speaking to a person. The spiritual, psychological path.

Zionism, Islamism, any of the many thousands of major beliefs are all branch beliefs. A branch belief is a belief that "excludes" other beliefs. A person has to be Catholic or a Jew, or a Muslim and they all 3 believe they are correct, but these are not root beliefs. A root belief is one that can encompass all beliefs and I believe that is what it means to travel the Revealed Path and is the purpose of life.

Power is relative and of different kinds. Rich jews in america always weilded political and economic power, and just as then, today's rich jews do the same and are of the same kind-power to dominate and to exploit-the fringe outliers are represented out of proportion to their total numbers in society-only because a far greater power gives them license to do so for its own vested interests-the State.

A feminist is a person who understands how traditional female roles affect women particularly with regard to their access to equal opportunities traditionally available to men and acts to oppose those cultural or social barriers based on gender or who acts to eliminate barriers to accessing services such as medical care. In addition a feminist acts to eliminate the barriers to equal opportunity that prevent women from exercising their free access to the same opportunities available to men. These actions include any legal means such as speaking, writing, organizing peaceful assemblies of likeminded individuals, aspiring to political offices, among others. Needless to say feminists are diverse in their beliefs and goals and are not a monolith.
Berkowitz makes a few intriguing statements - and a few intriguing omissions: "Blaming Jews and Israel for colonialism" is wrong. "Claiming Israel is White settler colonialism" is wrong. "Jews didn't do colonialism'. Also states: "Jews were the bankers". Summarises Arendt: "Racism is an ideology which has very little to do with Jews or Black people". "Prejudice isn't racism". Ignores anyone can have a prejudice against group x or y, which can be racial. So, I'm guessing White people (Ashks are between 50%-to-90%+ Caucasian; Sephards 50%-to-75%) did/do colonialism and racism, which seems quite historically localised, and restrictively historicist. He claims anti-semitism has little to do with Jews but does function through institutions. Seems to be claiming there is a mottling of whiteness (which is, of course, apparently not aimed negatively at white people, but we do have hiring preferences against them, so there does appear to be an overlap) and jewishness. So remove the confusions, and the institutions will be fine. Jews won't be blamed for 'whiteness' (So, I guess Noel Ignatiev wasn't 'woke' ?). Then all will be 'diverse'.Yet what of decisionism and the question of who/whom? Subtly entropic, but naive.
Berkowitz talks as if walking on egg shells. The numbers of Uh... Um... Umms in this call show how much acrobatics Berkowitz needs to do to hide the fact that she is a beacon for humanity and would 100% stand by the oppressed. As for Booth... it''s totally lost on her.

• The metaphysical reality is that we are each the leading actor in the Great Movie the Revealed Path & we are to struggle through the fire to be an empty cup so that the Script-Writer/Producer/Director (God) can gift us with the good knowledge our heart most earnestly desires.

To label Jewish people “self-hating” just because they are critical of Zionism is sick, anti-Semitic, and wrong.

Pro Palestine or Pro Israel is not the path, compassion, friendship, and a desire to understand the wonder of consciousness is the way. Pro Palestine or Pro Israel these beliefs restrict a person and their world that they can experience, nothing is more important than friendship.
Zoe you seem to be extremely well read, have you read “the Sufi Path Of Knowledge. ibn al Arabi Metaphysics Of Imagination.” by William C Chittick.. and “the Self-Disclosure of God. Principles of ibn al Arabi's Cosmology.” by William C Chittick.
These 2 works by a NYSU Professor Chittick describe what I believe is a scientific description of reality.

Obey My Voice Part 2
The Place of Life (Gen 2:9, Gen 3:22, Gen 3:24)
Is the foremost in importance (G4413), “the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast” (Mt 25:10) “Strive to enter through the narrow door. For many, I tell you, will seek to enter and will not be able. “When once the master of the house has risen and shut the door, and you begin to stand outside and to knock at the door, saying, ‘Lord, open to us,’ then he will answer you, ‘I do not know where you come from.’” (Lk 13:24-30), ie the narrow gate, and “we will travel the wide way that leads to destruction” (Mt 7:13-14) in the abode of contiguity (G2078) in the hind (H310), the domain of the recompense, the Fire. “Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.” (Matthew 3:10)
“The ones who hear the word and accept it, will bear fruit” (Mk 4:20)
And “return to the Lord our God” (Dt 4:30, Jer 3:22) and “Obey His Voice” (Ex 19:2-6) then we will travel “through the fire” (Gen 3:24, Num 31:23, Is 43:2) and with “God’s gifts of blessings” (Genesis 22:18, Dt 28:2) we will “enter the Kingdom of Heaven" (Lk 12:32, Mt 3:2, Mt 4:17, Luke 4:43).
People Esteem God So Little
“Since all creatures are void, how is it that they can so easily turn a person from God?
Is not the soul in its smallest particle of greater worth than heaven and all the creatures?
Meister Eckert answers “It is due to the fact that people esteem God so little.
If people esteemed God as they should,
it would be almost impossible for them ever to fall from grace”
~Meister Eckhart Passion for Creation Pg 83
Hence vision is through the veil
“The glories of the face are the rays of the Essence.
When they are deployed, the entities of the possible things become manifest,
so the possible things are the veil between us and the glories.
Will the eating be of the
Tree of Knowledge or of the Tree of Life?
When at the instant of the reception, the moment of being swept away by the storyline, being clothed in the robes of lordliness, being taken spiritually and psychologically by a new event, a new divine name, whatever its nature and composition, if we take with the light of creature then we will taste wretchedness in the after (the contiguity). But if we take with the light of affirmation then we will experience nearness and felicity in the next world, the hereafter.
Foremost In Importance And The Contiguity
Jesus carefully chose these 2 “words” to assist us in learning the nature and reality of 2 spiritual and psychological domains, abodes which dominate every second of our lives. The understanding of the foremost in importance and the contiguity is a great gift of knowledge from our Beloved, for He/She loved to be known (B). The foremost means the first in place; the most advanced, the first in dignity, the most honorable place. The foremost in importance is the place of earning light and knowledge (B). It is when the door is open for those who are awake and who have oil. The contiguity seeks the foremost in importance, but the foremost in importance does not seek the contiguity. Contiguity is the place of recompense for what we were doing in the foremost in importance. Contiguity means touching; meeting or joining; actual contact and it is the psychological and spiritual world where the recompense (B)
God discloses to us in the foremost in importance, knowledge and light. If we witness in the knowledge of the taking of the light of affirmation, our heart will gain knowledge and light and grow, and we will experience nearness and Felicity. God's words will come suddenly upon us, and we will travel the path as our God wishes us to.
Jesus calls the first part of this spiritual and psychological reality the foremost in importance, AKA the first (Lk 13:24-30, Mt 6:33, Mk 10:33)(G4413) . This ‘first time spark’ is the spiritual place of climbing and earning lights (Mt 5:14-16). “My Lord God, your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path” (Ps 119:105). The foremost in importance (Mt 22:38) is the exact moment of the first step (Psalm 37:23) and the first breath (Psalm 94:11). When we received the word which proceeds from the mouth of God by which we live (Mt 4:4). “Our Lord God would be the light, and He will go before us in the wilderness to show us the way”(DT 1:30-33) when we “Obey His Voice” (Ex 15:26).
The second part of this, spiritual, psychological reality is to be held in contiguity, (G2078). It is the abode of recompense for what we were doing in the foremost in importance. You know within yourself as the tasting of wrath, aka the Kingdom of Hell (the wide way) or the light of the nearness and felicity aka the Kingdom of Heaven (the Narrow Gate).
When we are in the foremost in importance domain it is very important to “stay awake” (Mt 24:42). This involves building the habit of witnessing that God literally brings forth all things and events of life (Lk 4:4) for the purpose of growing our spiritual heart. Staying awake is to “remember to take oil for our lamp” (Mt 25:4). The taking of oil is witnessing of taking
Walk Blamelessly Before Me”, (Gen 17:1)
Take of the light of affirmation
Isaiah 26:3 NGV You, our Lord God keep us in perfect peace when our mind is stayed on You, because we trust in You our Lord God.
Isaiah 40:31 But they who wait for their Lord God will renew their strength; the strugglers in the path of their Lord will mount up with wings like eagles; they will run and not be weary; they will walk and not faint.
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Deuteronomy 31:8 It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”
Genesis 50:20 As for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good
The narrow gate is the foremost in importance. (G4413).Is a living God Lev 22:29
I your Lord God will be your hearing and your seeing and all your faculties Ex 4:12, Ex 4:15, Is 51:16, Is 59:21, Lk 21:15, Dt 18:18, Jer 1:9, Mt 28:20
“Obey my voice” (Ex 19:2-6 more)
The Lord our God says 145 times in the Bible “Obey My Voice (H6963)” (Gen 3:1, Gen 3:8 Gen 3:10 Gen 3:17 Gen 22:18, Gen 26:5; Ex 3:18 Ex 4:8 Ex 4:9 Ex 5:2 Ex 9:23 Ex 9:28 Ex 9:29 Ex 15:26, Ex 18:19 Ex 19:5; Ex 19:19 Ex 23:22, Numbers 7:89, Numbers 14:22, Dt 4:12, Dt 4:30 Dt 4:33 Dt 4:36 Dt 5:22 Dt 5:23 Dt 5:24 Dt 5:25 Dt 5:26 Dt 6:6, Dt 8:3, Dt 8:20 Dt 9:23 Dt 11:13 Dt 11:18 Dt 13:4 Dt 13:18 Dt 15:5 Dt 18:16 Dt 21:18 Dt 26:14 Dt 26:17 Dt 27:10 Dt 28:1 Dt 28:2 Dt 28:15 Dt 28:45 Dt 28:45 Dt 28:62 Dt 30:2 Dt 30:8 Dt 30:10 Dt 30:20 Joshua 5:6 Joshua 22:2 Joshua 24:24 Judges 2:2 Judges 2:4 Judges 2:20 Judges 6:10 1 Sam 3:11 1 Sam 7:10 1 Sam 12:14 1 Sam 12:15 1 Sam 15:1 1 Sam 15:19 1 Sam 15:20 1 Sam 15:22 1 Sam 28:18 2 Sam 7:22 2 Sam 22:14 1 Kings 19:12 1 Kings 19:13 1 Kings 20:36 2 Kings 18:12 1 Chronicles 17:20 Job 37:5 Job 40:9 Ps 18:13 Ps 29:3 Ps 29:4 Ps 29:5 Ps 29:7 Ps 29:8 Ps 29:9 Ps 46:6 Ps 81:11 Ps 95:7 Ps 103:20 Ps 106:25 Isaiah 6:8 Isaiah 30:20-22 Isaiah 30:30 Isaiah 30:31 Isaiah 40:3 Jer 3:13 Jer 3:25 Jer 5:21 Jer 6:10 Jer 7:23 Jer 7:28 Jer 9:12 Jer 9:13 Jer 10:13 Jer 11:4 Jer 11:7 Jer 16:9 Jer 18:10 Jer 26:13 Jer 32:23 Jer 38:20 Jer 40:3 Jer 42:6 Jer 42:13 Jer 42:21 Jer 43:4 Jer 43:7 Jer 44:23 Jer 51:16 Ezekiel 1:25 Ezekiel 3:10 Ezekiel 12:2 Ezekiel 40:4 Daniel 9:10 Daniel 9:11 Daniel 9:14 Joel 2:11 Joel 3:16 Amos 1:2 Micah 6:9 Haggai 1:12 Zechariah 6:15 Mt 3:17 Mt 4:1, Mt 4:4, Mt 7:24-27; 24 Mt 13:15 Mt 13:16 Mt 17:5 Mk 1:3 Mk 1:11 Mk 8:18 Mk 9:7 Lk 3:4 Lk 3:22, Lk 4:4, Lk 9:35 Lk 14:35)
The early point about moral and political truth is taken but the discussion is confused - truth is never out there or a feature of the world. Truth is an attribute of a statement. The world exhibits facts as states of affairs, many of which are conglomerate ideas in which direct states of affairs are filtered through a set of statements or theories. Truth is attributed by human cognition to our own utterances whether these relate to public or privately accessed states of affairs. Many states of affairs are not easily incommunicable and yet a person can still trust that a private truth is the correct one, an analogy for which might be when I say the music is in tune but a master of music says it is not, and I have failed to perceive within the publicly shared domain what specialised perception makes available to another person but not to me, viz., that the music is out of tune. How the music is appears as a state of affairs, statements about its being in tune or not possess the attribute of truth purely on their coherence with states of affairs. Best to keep these domains clear.
Truth is a projection of human consciousness. It is the result of apprehension and subsequent comprehension and finally description of events as objectively as possible given the limits of our senses and cognition with the intention of providing an uncolored account of what was observed. Scientific truth is seductive because it involves objective measurement and reproducibility of it findings. Most other truths depend on a consensus of observers who are motivated to accurately describe what the experienced with no coloration by emotion or prejudice. We must have some standard of truth in order to be able to accomplish anything.
Twaddle.
"Truth is an attribute of a statement"? By what metric better than the reality of what happened? Yes, we can disagree about an event, but that doesn't change the event. Unfortunately, people will manipulate statements to alter perspectives of an event, but that still doesn't change what actually happened "out there as a feature of the world".
“Joan, the Mysterious Life Of The Heretic Who Became A Saint”. By Donald Spoto. this book is a clear example of God speaking to a person. The spiritual, psychological path. Begins and ends with obeying the voice of God.
Is a scientific work on Joan of Arc. Mark Twain spent 5 minutes preparing to write Tom Sawyer but spent 12 years of research on what he considered to be his greatest work, "Joan of Arc"
Zionism, Islamism, any of the many thousands of major beliefs are all branch beliefs. A branch belief is a belief that "excludes" other beliefs. A person has to be Catholic or a Jew, or a Muslim and they all 3 believe they are correct, but these are not root beliefs. A root belief is one that can encompass all beliefs and I believe that is what it means to travel the Revealed Path and is the purpose of life.

Interesting how Arendt said Jews need to learn power..to pararphrase.. what is the power for.. to what end..?
What was the purpose of this?
To make you realize you never understood how daft Hannah Arendt was. To think I conceptualized her as a pioneering antifascist when really she was as anti-knowledge as any other Boomer.
@@Beretta249she wasn’t any of those things. maybe try reading her books or else just refrain from having an opinion
@@Beretta249arendt was neither an “antifascist” in the anarchist tradition nor was she “anti-knowledge”. and how could someone who was an adult (in her 30s!) during world war 2 be a boomer?? 🙄
@@Beretta249 Maybe it's all this labeling that's the problem
Power is relative and of different kinds. Rich jews in america always weilded political and economic power, and just as then, today's rich jews do the same and are of the same kind-power to dominate and to exploit-the fringe outliers are represented out of proportion to their total numbers in society-only because a far greater power gives them license to do so for its own vested interests-the State.
Life on the Edge? The Coming of Age of Quantum Biology.” by McFadden. And Al-Khalili. This book. Describes the reality that miracles. Are common.
Is the proof that in fact it is only because of "miracles" (trillions and trillions at every second) that life exists.

What's a "Femist" ?
A feminist is a person who understands how traditional female roles affect women particularly with regard to their access to equal opportunities traditionally available to men and acts to oppose those cultural or social barriers based on gender or who acts to eliminate barriers to accessing services such as medical care. In addition a feminist acts to eliminate the barriers to equal opportunity that prevent women from exercising their free access to the same opportunities available to men. These actions include any legal means such as speaking, writing, organizing peaceful assemblies of likeminded individuals, aspiring to political offices, among others. Needless to say feminists are diverse in their beliefs and goals and are not a monolith.
@dennissilber287 Yes I know - but what is a "femist"?
@@dennissilber287 she's a fascist that doesn't care about the consequences of her actions. The ultimate narcissist.
Berkowitz makes a few intriguing statements - and a few intriguing omissions:
"Blaming Jews and Israel for colonialism" is wrong.
"Claiming Israel is White settler colonialism" is wrong.
"Jews didn't do colonialism'. Also states: "Jews were the bankers".
Summarises Arendt: "Racism is an ideology which has very little to do with Jews or Black people".
"Prejudice isn't racism". Ignores anyone can have a prejudice against group x or y, which can be racial.
So, I'm guessing White people (Ashks are between 50%-to-90%+ Caucasian; Sephards 50%-to-75%) did/do colonialism and racism, which seems quite historically localised, and restrictively historicist.
He claims anti-semitism has little to do with Jews but does function through institutions. Seems to be claiming there is a mottling of whiteness (which is, of course, apparently not aimed negatively at white people, but we do have hiring preferences against them, so there does appear to be an overlap) and jewishness. So remove the confusions, and the institutions will be fine. Jews won't be blamed for 'whiteness' (So, I guess Noel Ignatiev wasn't 'woke' ?). Then all will be 'diverse'.Yet what of decisionism and the question of who/whom? Subtly entropic, but naive.
Berkowitz talks as if walking on egg shells. The numbers of Uh... Um... Umms in this call show how much acrobatics Berkowitz needs to do to hide the fact that she is a beacon for humanity and would 100% stand by the oppressed. As for Booth... it''s totally lost on her.
I read this carefully but didnt understand any of it. What were you trying to say? I think we disagree but I'm not sure.

Hi Yoel, my belief is that this is due to women caring more about protecting the "vulnerable" than the truth "women... have more empathy and desire to protect the vulnerable" quillette.com/2022/10/08/sex-and-the-academy/
I plan on making a video about this soon :)
I hope you've made some better friends! I sure have.
