The original restriction was on carrying burdens into or out of the gates of Jerusalem on shabbat. On the other hand you still can't do things like open an umbrella or play golf, so there's that.

I have heard from a coworker that the Chicago electric utility (Com Ed) has to report if certain electrical lines fall down. That those lines are used for the same thing, substituting for a city wall on Shabbat.

Some flights have been delayed or canceled because of religious assholes who can't plan better and don't want to have to fly on shabbat.

It's exactly the point. "God gave us brains and it pleases him when we use them". It's like if your kid gets in trouble at school in a really creative way. Sure you've gotta discipline them but it makes you a little proud. The basis of modern Jewish thought (like post second temple) is dialectic.

They didn't choose to be Jewish. God chose them. So, yeah, they screw up and sometimes bad enough that entire cities get burned to the ground or people get turned into pillars of salt, but they're still Jewish. They can always go home, even after having a double bacon cheeseburger.

Relentless posted:Let me introduce you to The Oven of Akhnai. So this guy says that the oven fits their rules and everyone else says "NUH UH" so then he gets god to do magical acts to signify that he is correct, and then god directly speaks to them and says "hey, this guy is right." But then the other guy says a quote from the torah and everyone agrees that it proves the first guy is wrong because they disagree with him. So then the second guy banishes the first guy in the name of unity. Then later says that he talked to god and god was super happy that they defeated him. I expected to see "and that Rabbi was Donald Trump" at the end of the wikipedia page.

I don't get where Shrek is in this video, and why the guy backed up. Also lol that he thinks being in that spot would have killed him. Would have messed his car up a bit for sure.

Cops could mistake you for a suspected shoplifter, yell for you to stop, you not realize they're yelling at you to stop and when they open fire and hit some random pedestrians and another cop congrats you just murdered a cop while resisting arrest.
