What Are Weapons Of Mass Destruction For?

[bungyscuba]

The problem with accrediting ‘salvation’ with one particular region, people, or religion is it discredits everyone else. The idea of a chosen people can only stem from deep rooted sense of insecurity / fear, whereas acceptance, on an equal level, of every other school of thought demonstrates tremendous confidence and respect for others.

Certainly this kind of acceptance would not result in conflict..

Look inwards to your own insecurity & need for validation and find answers to end the conflict.

[cupomash2]

Well weapons of mass destruction are for em em !!! mass destruction.

[gymclasshero88]

good question. good answer. funny when he says what are they for? and moves his head forward. i rewatched that part and laughed.

[iceman23332]

So, basically you are saying that every human's goal is to reach complete perfection? And you are also saying ALL history is on the "path of pain" as you call it? And you say that weopons that we have created are useless? What would we have for defense? I hate to break it to you, but there always has been war, and there always will be war. No stopping it. Although, as technology progresses, whether human kind will actually present in the war is a pnenomenon. These are useful machines, nuff said.

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman23332 - I think you make a lot of good & valid points here, but... I don't think the "answer" should be to shrug our shoulders & go "well, this is just the way it is."

It doesn't HAVE to be this way. Humanity CAN improve itself & chose a better "path" (so to speak), and it's the job of the enlightened people to help push humanity forward down this correct path.

The problem we have is that EVERYONE thinks they are "enlightened" & special. There is no humility & only arrogance. (:-{

[iceman23332]

@KabbalahSherry Thanks. There is always war as long as there is animals and humans. Animals fight all the time, humans are more intelligent, therefore our wars are much more violent and long lasting. Yes, we can change, but we won't. I can almost gaurantee that, atleast in my lifetime. There is always winners and losers, the only thing is no one wants to be a loser. So, this creates competition, which creates an egotistical behavoir in self righteousness which is arrogance. well Never be perfect

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman23332 - I know how you feel mate. I take a look @ the state of the world sometimes, & I think, "Will we EVER reach a state of total altruism & love for the other?" How can it even be possible, when most people don't even want to bother to TRY?

But remaining hopeless like this doesn't solve the problem either. At some point, we all must develop that "point in the heart", where we reach a state where we know we can't live like this any longer & are crying out 2 the Creator for a solution.

[iceman23332]

@KabbalahSherry The creator is evolution, it's just makes more sense, look at the world, why doesn't "god" do something? What kind of god is he? What is he doing up there? You know?

Not to get on a off note, but to me, politics are sort of pointless to a certain extent because all politics lead to is trouble and corruption.

And sorry but, conflict is inevitable, we will never be able to make "world peace". It's not impossible, but it's very unlikely. Religion is the #1 cause for war and chaos.

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman: (1/2) "Why doesn't "god" do something?"

Again, I totally see your point here, BUT, I think (all due respect) that this thinking is sort of backwars, & I'll tell u why:

Say "God" really IS just inside of us & there's NOTHING outside of this Universe. IF that's so: then when the world is full of chaos, & everything is turning 2 sh*t, shouldn't the question be...

"Why aren't WE doing something?! " (lol) You see what I'm saying?

This is where "Love Thy Neighbor As Thyself" comes in!

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman: (2/2) Um, this is gonna sound REALLY weird now, but bear with me:

The concept of "Love Thy Neighbor As Thyself" isn't just some religious philosphy or dogma.

It's SCIENCE!

Kabbalah teaches this concept in many ways, but let me just throw ONE parable at you: All of the cells in your body work harmoniously, all doing their job & helping to make you "tick". But just imagine, if the cells in your body started to function like the way humanity does now!

Aaah! Cancer! (lol)

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman23332 - By the way... I believe in reincarnation & evolution, up to a certian point.

Again.. it would take too long to explain here, but..

Just know that your concerns & questions make total sense, and you have not offended me in the least bit!

I love talking religion, science & philosophy!

(:-D

[iceman23332]

@KabbalahSherry I'm gonna PM you to continue this conversation in a quicker more in depth fashion, because youtube comments can only be so long, so...PM inbound!

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman23332 - Right on man!

I welome the conversation!

Looking forward to it,

Sherry (;-D

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman23332 - (con't) I'm not just talking about picking a right religion, mind you. I used to be a Christian, & I thought that if everyone would just accept Jesus Christ into their hearts, the world would be a better place. But we can both see this idea is folly.

Religion doesn't poison everything, but it can poison a lot. People are what have 2 change. When the people change, then religions will change. How do we change the people if religion doesn't help?

That's what lead me to Kabbalah!

[iceman23332]

@KabbalahSherry Ok, If no one ever beleived in god, no one would of been accused for crucifying him, therefore less wars are started over religion. Hitler might not of hated jews so much, etc...

I don't beleive in god, atleast not in the sense you or most people do, god is inside us all, and I'd rather not have to hear about wars that are started over people's OWN interpretations of "god".

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman23332: "I don't beleive in god, atleast not in the sense you or most people do, god is inside us all..."

Oh I actually AGREE with you here mate! (:-D

I don't quite view God in the same way evangelicals do, or that sort of thing. (A big guy, sitting on a cloud, stroking his big, gray beard & getting ready to throw plagues & famine down onto people for dirty thoughts- lol)

It would take too long to explain it all here of course, but just know that I absolutely DO see your points! :-)

[KabbalahSherry]

@iceman: I'd really luv 2 send u a video from the Bnei Baruch Learning Center called "Do I Have to Believe in God In Order to Lead a Spirtual Life?"

Don't worry: Bnei Baruch's videos are always interesting & aways entertaining. Oh, and other than the full-length lessons, most of the videos on the website are only 2-6 minutes long! This one is about 5 minutes I think.

I hope this does not offend u. Our Rav doesn't believe in "converting" people or something. I'm truly only sharing.

Thanx!

He that identifies with the vessel will contract and becomes enmeshed and more tightly bound. He that has locked himself in the proverbial 'atom' will be released and freed - one way or the other on the Path...

[truthisknowledge1]

if you could create a weapon that, on impact, formed a singularity, you could theoretically destroy whole worlds or solar systems.

It happened in the new star trek movie :)

[84cio]

TV is considered a weapon of mass destruction too.

[KabbalahSherry]

@84cio: "TV is considered a weapon of mass destruction too."

Great comment! I absolutely think that children are being given a tv as a form of "babysitter" so that a tired & hurried parent doesn't have to "deal" with the child at that moment. I know all about this- I was raised by a single Mom. She did the best she could for me, I have no complaints.

But we as parents MUST turn off the tv sometimes & encourage our children to go out & play! That will "cure" the ADHD in all of them! (lol)

[227Morgan]

@84cio

weapon of mass distraction you mean

[rosettast0ned]

Its all in order to force you to come out of what you want in others.

[NigelAndres]

yes

[VerystrangeMaster]

There is no pleasent way. Both are pain. You scared me, I thought you weren't going to mention Ego here :P

[birdfly43]

that guy that needs a shave is a dickhead the amount of engengy to destory the sun or even the moon is in the billions if not the trillions there no way at this point in time we can destory the sun with a atom or any shit we may have stored away

[tribalwayz]

wao, so many people here missing the point completely. hilarious.

[realisoph]

I think the fly sitting on my laptop, having seen your brilliant comment, just uttered a feeble:

So what?

...and then asked me to tell you that it thinks that you missed the point.

[billygundum]

what they for?

reshaping and or moving things all i can think of.

despite emotionally exaggerated questionings/claims in beginning, somehow the video made sense.

p.s.

we probably wont have sun destroyers of our sun's class let alone solar ones till around 43rd to 85th century, probably a lot later.

Ego vs. Altruism

find the balance in you, is idea i found in it.

[rosettast0ned]

did you guys just not watch the video or something? weapons were made for the pleasure of destroying someone next to us. the path of pain.

[dazza5897]

weapons will always advance due to the need to survive and overcome threats

it started out as bones to pointed rocks to swords and so on until we got to where we are now

there will always be a need to advance our civilisation in all areas including weapons

[kalcano]

may i aske wen did u last get a cat scan you may whonna get one soon

[wineyamehouse]

Instead of trying to build newer and bigger weapons of destruction, we should be thinking about getting more use out of the ones we already have.

[illevity]

my ego, my reasoning, my beliefs, my heart, my eyes, my ears, my hands, my body, every last inch of hope is telling me that kabbalah is the only way, and that at the end of the tunnel i will find the creator, the answer to all my reasoning WITHOUT actually having to change.

its called hope, and this is exactly how your ego will trick itself into preparation. everything i do up to that point will be for myself until i cant bear reasoning anymore, until i cant bear answering questions for myself.

[camandoe]

we do not have bombs that can destroy nether earth nor the sun definitly not the sun however we do have wepons that can end humanity

[raby760]

As an Atheist who was raised by Hindu parents, I've always had respect for Jews but not for the religions of Christianity, Islam and Judaism. I respect Jews because they don't push their beliefs on anyone. You don't have to be religious to understand the ideas in this video. This is something that I came up with on my own. It's good to see that people out there are thinking like me. Now, if only people can accept that we are animals and let go of the belief in an imaginary god...

[illevity]

werent you listining? the ego includes -everything you see, everything you believe, everything imaginable, all conceivable, the universe,

you can not imagine god! you must test him!

[raby760]

I was listening. Ego also includes man's desire to believe that god does exist because we also want to believe that there is an after-life, because we don't want to believe that we are going to cease to exist, because we have the ability to reason but can't let go of our ego. Also, ASSERTING that I can't imagine this imaginary god and I must test him doesn't prove the existance of this imaginary god.

[illevity]

thats excellent, only we're testing something we wish were imaginable so that it would give our ego hope that we can answer the meaning of life ourselves. i sooo hope that you study further into kabbalah your perfect!

[ChristopherLucky]

the sun is already a gigantic explosion

[John8x42to47]

I am pretty shur we did create the WMD's we see these days because of a book! Maybe those books had an influence on the lifes of the makers but the deciders to make these weapons, DID NOT share a religion. Those texts you attempted to discredit with wild claims of the humble people written about. Maybe in the brainwashing that our world does these days we can continually blame others for the problems we leave for our children.

Have a pleasant day!!!

[Joshreaper]

Wow Well there is 3 minutes and 35 secinds of My Life I will Never get Back

the Comment On Why we have Weapons of Mass Destruction is

In our Conquest for Knowledge and Power we uncovered a Destructive energy that we thought would End a War in Fact we did end a war BUT we unleashed a greed and Hunger For more of that Destructive Power and it has Spread world WIde

[cjla1987]

I agree with you buddy...well said...

[Reido2828]

Where is the scientific evidence for Kabbalah?

[cjla1987]

What? What are you talking about?

[Reido2828]

They say Kabbalah is a science passed down from generations. I want to see some evidence for their scientific claims if there is any. Thats all. Is there any? Or do they take it by faith?

[cjla1987]

Hey, what's up? Well, I don't actually study Kabbalah. I was trying to learn about it, too. But I don't know where to start. I think I have the same questions just like you. I will try to learn about. Also, are you a religiously enclined?

[Reido2828]

Nope I believe in an upper force or power or god or w.e you want to call it. I do not look at religion like it is my life. I believe in evolution and the universe's evolution as well. I do however believe in faith. To me it is not faith versus reason it is faith and reason. Faith being Intuition and reason being thinking. Lol sorry for the story. The teachings of Kabbalah seem amazing. It does have a bit of psychology to it when they speak of desires. Have you found out anything good?

[cjla1987]

Very rhethorical. I have faith, too. And, evolution? What do you mean by that? Which evolution are you talking about? evolution of the elements? How hydrogen (H) turned into helium (He) and how (He) turned into Lithium (Li) that is evolution. Or Micro-evolution? Or Macro-evolution? Macro-evolution is an animal transforming into another. Micro-evolution are small changes within the species. Like salt-watered fish fitting into a sweet-watered river? Which one is it?

[Reido2828]

I do not know very much about evolution just that we can see it as can I so I do believe in the survival of the fittest and the evolution of species. What is with the big questions on evolution? Do you have an alternative? Also if the Kabbalah knows so much of science and its origins why did it not talk about evolution during its first time in the public eye during the beginning of civilization? hard question to answer eh:P:P

[MachinimanX]

Russia kind of dropped the ball on the whole weapons of mass destruction, and if we never dropped the bomb then Russia would have, and would've never warned anybody just like the Japanese did as a revenge. They called the peace bomber because this ended a possible war. If you don't believe then why was Russia racing us to build one ey? Why were they the first ones to detonate the larger Hydrogen bomb? If it was never dropped then people would be mourning this like a holocaust. They eveacuated.

[boomshesdead]

Rav Michael Laitman, PhD: Even before we achieve a certain techno-ecological limit of development, humanity will destroy itself in the Third World War. It is impossible to reach the limit of technical development, because we evoke much greater problems with our thoughts and our incorrect attitude towards each other. This is why there is no ecological limit to economic development.

[boomshesdead]

In general, the ecological problem is not caused by the technical development, but only by the development of the ego and the evil that lies in it. This is why the only possible salvation here is for the whole world to understand that we belong to one body, to one global system, that we are interconnected and are obligated to take care of one another.

[boomshesdead]

As soon as we understand that we belong to one system, one organism—at that very second we will immediately be finished with all of our problems and nature will begin treating us good and wonderful, just like we will treat each other. The worse we will treat each other, the worse nature will treat us. The better we will treat each other, the better nature will treat us."

[Intangible88]

This is SO GOOD and makes so much sense of my thoughts and experiences over the last ten years!

[cwazycat]

MeanHarryman, It is great to explore the spiritual side of life. You make life seem two dimensional. However, life is extremely multidimensional and takes great understanding to see the big picture. I notice that the Atheists insist on spiritual ignorance. I used to be ignorant too. When I finally had a spiritual awakening, all the pieces of life came together. I may not agree with you or this movie, but I would never discourage others from searching for the truth of our existence.

[watchover82]

it tells us to do bad?

and what da heck is bad and what is good?

where do you know - there is no good and bad; or is there just black and white?

[abram730]

fear is the darkness... I got to know the darkness and it's not evil and it is the reality of most.. it tells us to do bad and we learn from that.. it's a form of learning... yet if you answers correctly that the advice brings harm and how it does we are rewarded. It's the push.

[watchover82]

he forgot fear...

[TheRza4ever]

The sun is are biggest bomb if the sun blew up there wouldnt be a solar system nor earth so yes we do have a bomb that can take out the whole solar system its called the sun

[asdfusuck]

as soon as we can make anttimatter faster then we can blowup the earth but im more conserned with dirty bombs and biological weapons such as a biologicly enhance strand of ebola

[london061687]

I have definently thought about these things before. I agree with his statements. We need to shift our awareness so that we can find what TRULY gives us pleasure and fulfillment, rather than what we PERCIEVE gives us pleasure and fulfillment.

[joshuaASK]

Hey - mq03nma - a bomb doesn't need to destroy the solar system to worry me. Just the fact that it can destroy my neighborhood is destruction enough.

[theegg2002]
