WATCH: ‘Jerusalem in Ours,’ Say Hundreds of Jews Marching Around Old City
Source: WATCH: ‘Jerusalem in Ours,’ Say Hundreds of Jews Marching Around Old City | United with Israel
Several hundred people, Jews and non-Jews, participated in the annual march around the Old City of Jerusalem, the eternal capital of the State of Israel.
Each year, Women for Israel’s Tomorrow, popularly known as Women in Green, a non-profit “dedicated to safeguarding our God-given biblical homeland,” leads a march around the Old City of Jerusalem on the eve of Tisha b’Av, when Jews commemorate the destruction of the Holy Temple.
Women in Green co-head Nadia Matar asks, “What is so special about this year’s event?”
In fact, she continues, why do Jews still mourn on Tisha b’Av, when they have the Jewish State of Israel?
What was the “terrible reminder” this year that tells us there is still so much to do to attain full sovereignty and why was this year’s walk so important?
Why is Jerusalem considered by some as the safest city in the world?

Why We Have Gods
Mankind
has been grasping
for knowledge
from the beginning,
fear of the unknown
was always forbidding.
Why does the wind blow?
Why does the sky
crack open
with light,
sound and fury?
Why do the oceans
roil with
such anger?
How does
the unknowing
mind handle
such things?
Gods is what we said.
It’s gods
that make the
unknown
knowable.
This work for us,
it help it makes sense.
As time went on
we learned things,
we learned why
the wind blows,
why the sky
cracks open
with light,
sound and fury,
and why
the ocean roils
with such anger.
As our knowledge
grew
the gods
began to melt away,
so now for many
at least
there is just
one.
We have gathered
great knowledge
over time
and have eliminated
many gods
along the way.
One big question
we’ve not yet answered,
were do we go
when we die?
A great unknown
to be sure.
God is the answer
for some.
It helps them
make sense.
God is the one!

Define God.
What is God?
What is a god?
It’s all relative.
It’s all semantics really.
To those
who wandered
this globe
fifty thousand years ago
we’d be gods.
Would those
who live
fifty thousand years
from now be looked
on as “Gods” by us?
How far into the future,
into the past
or out into space
would we need to peer to find
the God.
In fifty thousand years
could we produce
virtual constructs
with artificially
intelligent beings?
If so,
would we be
their gods?
Could these beings
we produced evolve
to create their own
virtually intelligent beings?
If so,
how far down
the rabbit hole
could it possibly go?
How many layers
of gods
could their possibly be?
Perhaps more than can be
possibly known!
