Apparently you can't accept that because you hate religion, but it's fact. It's part of who we are. A big part. Telling everyone to ditch it won't bring us anywhere except to confusion about who we are and where we are going.

Everyone seems to agree: Ovadiah, brilliant creative thinker, is wasting his and our time with some of these wild excursions into Torah. "Shoemaker, stick to your last," i.e., stick to those matters (contemporary politics) you are fully versed in. Otherwise, you won't be taken seriously by anyone.

It its truly mindbogglingly that a brilliant man, like Obadiah would waste his time arguing what Torah is saying about blood. =============== When it comes to nutrition, apply scientific research, not some 3000 years old Bronze Age superstitions. = The thing that I am most sad about is that precisely because of such nonsensical obsession, a truly bright man like Obadiah, can only have a very marginal impact. = We need leaders who can unify, rather than divide Jews. A strong unified proud Jewish Israel can establish peace, and earn respect of the world including Arabs. The above article is an example of what I was saying in another comment:

Let those issues for the specialists. You "suppose" a lot and "perhaps" a lot. Perfection is not made of this.If you have not some things clear, ask and you'll be answered.
