"Don't worry, linking politics to intangible notions of divine truth couldn't possibly turn out poorly!"
Richard Michael Blaber@markmetz It boils down to this: the Kantian - or #Catholic, or #Orthodox, for that matter - #principle that people should never be treated as means to some end, however good or desirable that end might be, but should always be treated as ends-in-themselves. You can't murder a baby, even if the result would be to create a perfect world (Dostoevsky, "The Brothers Karamazov", Part 2, Book V, Chapter 4, "Mutiny").

Bisschop Russisch-Orthodoxe Kerk in Tsjechië opgepakt met drugs in auto
De arrestatie van een hoge Russische geestelijke heeft geleid tot een relletje tussen Tsjechië en Rusland. Bisschop Hilarion (echte naam: Grigory Alfeyev) werd in Tsjechië opgepakt nadat in de kofferbak van zijn auto drugs was aangetroffen. Het Kremlin zegt dat de man er ingeluisd is.

דער קערפער פֿון השם"#TobiRubinstein – an #Orthodox #Jewish #rabbi, #author, and leading figure in the #fashion industry – received an honorary degree from #StThomasUniversity (#STU) in #Miami, #Florida earlier this month, and at the school’s graduation ceremony, she gave an inspiring speech about faith, success, growth, and purpose.
The #Catholic #university honored #Rubinstein with an honorary degree recognizing her work connecting faith, fashion, education, and cultural dialogue. Rubinstein has been working in the #fashionindustry for over 40 years and is the founder of The House of Faith and Fashion, a brand that started as a reality series but then expanded into a lecture and radio series, live events, panel discussions, and runway shows."

“Out From Under” is an ambitious and worthy #sequel to “The Evil Inclination.” Part of Lev will always feel #Orthodox in the #Brooklyn style he grew up with, but through Rachel, Rabbi Louise and #novel’s broader cast of memorable characters, he becomes open to a more flexible, yet still committed, #religious path.
With rising #antisemitism, #Victor believes both #novels carry the message that “we need to have the courage to make #Judaism meaningful in all aspects of our lives. Deep engagement with #Jewish learning and observance is critical to survival.”
In fact, outside of #Orthodox #publishing, few contemporary #Jewishnovels probe the lives of #Jews searching for meaningful religious engagement, especially from an Orthodox perspective. This makes Victor’s compulsively readable #novels that much more relevant in today’s world."
