Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 11 | Sunday – September 6, 2026 S eptember is here, which means that the fall is just around the corner, and I must say that from my position in the world, the fall came early this year, which may or may not be a shame, depending of course on your perspective. I have had some personal issues this summer, read " Medical Emergency Updates ", and as a result I am having some difficulties still, read as well " Personal Disintegration ". I am a strong person and there is no reason to worry for me, but even I face major difficulties sometimes, and at the present moment I am facing a "perfect storm" in many ways, really a confluence of adverse factors outside my own control. None of this means that I will be unable to continue this "Bible Study series", but it does mean that I may have to slow down. If indeed I am forced to slow down this series, I will announce this on my "INFO page"...

"Good morning Nepal" By Ravi Sharma Further Notes About Hope | Saturday – September 5, 2026 I n my post about hope, called " Is There Hope ", from June , I made it clear that there is no hope in the long term, and this has to be true, even if we only choose to view this from a merely corporeal point of view, because at the very least we should all be dead in the next century or so. Now, if we are lucky or unlucky, depending on the perspective, maybe we will be remembered through symbolism and representation, and maybe even through counterfeit, if we are unlucky that is. But none of us can possibly have any hope that we should be around in a century or so, for our biological limitations, or corporeal limitations, dictate that living past, about the age of 120, is quite impossible, and this was even said by Yahweh himself, read " Genesis Chapter 6 ". Now, I am not a nihilist and it is not my intent to advance nihilistic ideas on this page , it is however my ...

Mosaic of a Roman Comedy Mask The Matter of Comedy | Friday – September 4, 2026 S hould we be laughing? Why are people so obsessed with the matter of comedy anyways? First of all, I am someone who seldom engages in the art of comedy, mostly because of its strong political angle and tilt; I will however say that there are many absurd things about the world that truly deserves to be uncovered, and I suppose that comedy indeed has a role to play in any society to that end, to that end. The problem with modern comedy is that it is mostly nothingness punctuated by failure, and this can be said about these people who engage in what they call "stand up comedy" in particular. Since when should talking aimlessly until you happen to come upon an idea qualify for anything? It seems to me that these people would have been better off just guessing, which is what they are doing half of the time anyways. I suppose comedians of that kind are similar to the bastard poets in these so-called ...

Biblical ( תַּנַ״ךְ ) depiction of the flight from Sodom and Gomorrah Concerning Interfaith Matters | Thursday – September 3, 2026 I nterfaith matters or issues regarding the relationship between people of the same faith that belong to different orders or denominations is an issue that sometimes comes up here in the modern day, although I should admit that it seems to me that issues of this kind seem less common these days. At any rate, I am going to attempt to provide some advice and guidance to one of my readers in this post regarding exactly that matter, and then also another matter, which I will return to below. I should mention that I have already responded to a similar letter/issue in this post , although in a completely different context.     This post will be the 9th part of this series, " Answering Readers series ", and I will surely be delighted to answer this and many other readers questions to me. Again, at this point I still have some letters left to cover, but ...
