Suuuuper loaded question but humor me!

Feel free to explain your answer via reblog/tag if you feel comfortable doing so

All answers are perfectly valid and they don't make you any less Jewish!

Can I put it more plainly?

[secular-jew]

Say her name. This is 16 year-old Nika Shakarami, who was murdered by the Butcher of Tehran, Ebrahim Raisi in 2022.

Raisi met the mountain yesterday, and lost. Iranians all over the world are justifiably celebrating this event, including fireworks displays.

There are 72 more - very unhappy virgins.

do you believe in God?

Yes and kinda at the same time

I am undecided if hashem is a higher being or if it is a name for a higher force, but I do belive something higher than us exists.

I used to lean more towards maybe, but I recently witnessed a straight up miracle answer of a prayer so it's hard for me to say maybe anymore.

My sister was told she was infertile, that she had no eggs, and she is still in her 20s. She really wants to be a mother, to the point that she has approached me before to be her surrogate. Well, my dad prays for her to get pregnant and have a child and a week later she hooks up with a dude and falls pregnant.

She never became pregnant when she was with her many boyfriends or even her ex husband. She hasn't been single for than a month in the past 7 years, and she only got pregnant after my father prayed.

Then there have been two less miracle type things but still unexplainable.

A few weeks before Rosh Hashanah, a lady at shul was handing out card for the holiday for free that she made. I picked one for my dad. I had erev rosh hashanah service after work and was debating bumming around town for 3 hours or going home for 2 hours and then coming back out. I had this urgent feeling to go home and give my dad the card that evening instead of the next day during rosh hashanah. So I went home and gave him the card before sunset. And turns out my dad was just really going through it that day. Like he was not having good thoughts. And me giving him the card made his day and made him feel better. Whilst I may have been a day early, it was the perfect day for him to recieve the card.

Then on the Friday after rosh hashanah, I attended a Jewish potluck. I was driving myself and someone else there. The other person was helping with directions at this one intersection which is tricky. I knew I needed to go down one street, and the person told me to go down the street I needed to take, but for some reason I took the other street (y shaped intersection), and I needed to take a side street to get back into the street I should've gotten on. Well we passed a pro Palestine protest which had antisemitic signage just before the side street and as we turned into the side street, we saw a lady from shul and we started frantically waving at her from the car and she saw us and waved back.

The next day at shul she told us that normally she doesn't notice people waving at her from their cars, and that she was also anxious about walking past that protest. But she saw us waving, waved back and felt a lot better and it gave her the courage to walk past the protest.

With all of those things happening, it is hard for me not to believe in a higher power or being of some sort.

Only HaShem has the right to juge us

For the people who think religious people (in any religion) can't be gay. Yes they can. (And it's none of your business)

Vulnerable

And in any given moment of vulnerability,

the pain will knock loudly at my door,

Looping in and out of conscious contact-

Sense the shadows sliding surreptitiously

Down the steps of ancient temples.

I’ve been in possession of better intentions,

And an observer of bitter blows.

Seen love delivered door to door,

Nurtured attraction on fog filled evenings,

Collided carelessly with ego unkempt and unsteady on its feet.

Shattered feelings lying like broken eggs on the backbone of the universe,

Bliss looks bleakly through reverse keyholes,

And casts a wistful eye over her shoulder…

…Was that reflected sordid smile meant for me…

A token of tarnished tremors,

Erected between the gates of golden tressed gardens,

Punctured by the pride of pretty persuasion,

Strung out on the handlebars of success,

Placated by the shrapnel of perversity.

And somewhere amongst a wall of wary whispers…

I hear God tell me to put it down…

Over and over past the gathered forces of absurdity …

…in any given moment of vulnerability

"Do Not Disturb" on the door

Pile of clothes on the floor

Bedside manners, profane grammar

I've seen this scene before

Ooh, it's got me down on my knees

Begging, but I won't say please

Shell shocked and rolling, bells are tolling

But this won't be the end of me”

Hashem’s paintings never fail to amaze.

Instead of saying “My brother in Christ” I’m going to start saying “My friend in HaShem”

.וְהִיא שֶׁעָמְדָה לַאֲבוֹתֵינוּ וְלָנוּ

"And She is the One who stood for our forefathers and for us."

[Pesach Haggadah]

וַיּוֹצִאֵנוּ ה' מִמִצְרַיִם בְּיָד חֲזָקָה, וּבִזְרֹעַ נְטוּיָה, וּבְמֹרָא גָּדֹל, וּבְאֹתוֹת וּבְמֹפְתִים.

"And G-d took us out of Egypt with a strong hand and an outstreched arm, and with great awe, and with signs and with wonders."

[Deuteronomy, Ki Tavo, 26:8]

Thinking about how the One who Stood (Hashem) in V'Hi Sh'Amda in the Haggadah is referred to as "She".......

Fighting worms

In the cold and grey I have lost my way Distracted by little worms who want to play Squirming around in their lust for gold Lying about a love so old It tore me from my healing self As I put myself on the shelf Hung up for battle with these worms Trying to clean myself of their germs But I can see where I am right now Gobbling up these worms like a hungry sow I won’t be defeated by them…
