Kabbalah? No thanks, I had some for breakfast.
I was a bad Brota and skipped the gym today. I'm not busy Saturday, though, so I'll make it up then. My neck is pretty much better, but my shoulder is still sore. Why risk it, eh?
So today's thought of the day is that I think I want to be Jewish.
side note: I don't mean any offense to Jewish people by this post.
This all started when I heard a friend of mine wanted to be an embalmer. That's when I realized that I don't want to be embalmed. Having my innards scooped out and my blood replaced with formaldehyde is kind of a weird thing to do to a body.
What's this have to do with Judaism? Well, I hear that Jewish funerals happen within 24 hours of the death because they don't believe in desecrating the body with the embalming process. Besides, the little I've heard about Judaism is pretty cool.
1) Jews' bodies aren't violated when they die.
2) Jews have lots of holidays.
3) Jews are pretty laid back people (I've never seen any Jewish zealots or Jewish evangelists on the tube).
Now, I'm not a super religious person. I don't really believe in...well...anything. But I figure I was a pretty bad Catholic as a kid, so I could be just as bad of a Jew and get all the benefits.
