Redemptive fear mongering of the Rabbis
jos boersema
- "After the redemption there is no more free will."
Scary fear mongering beyond hell 2
- "If you have not done Teshuva before the Redemption, it's all over
for you, you can never do Teshuva again."
This is not the goal of what I'm trying to do ! The goal is to make
things better not make them worse ! I seem to remember somewhere in
the Tanach it says ''when you will be attacked it will not be from
[HaShem]'' implying that injustice in the world and by the world
continues. If that continues, then presumably return to justice by
those people is also still possible. That would be from the Torah.
I would rather say that right now there is no free will. You can
only join in with the great abuse pyramid of this world, or you can
live a life of hell right here between the paganights. If you want
to make some money for your own and work: either be a slafe, or be
a slave boss. Hence you have to choose to be evil in order to live
'good'. That not being possible: there is no free will in this world.
What is free will other then the ability to do what you want. It is
often described as having choices, even between 'good' and 'evil,'
which IMHO is merely a choice between 'smart' and 'dumb.' Every
creature has its knowledge and expectation of what brings it happiness,
it tends to chace that expectation of happiness like clockwork.
Hence if the rabbis say 'there is no more free will after the
redemption,' what they are really saying IMHO is: 'after the redemption
I can't commit crimes as easily anymore, can't follow my own criminal
will anymore.' Well maybe you can't, because the laws of rent seeking
will be installed again for instance, there should be much more justice
emanating from society at large. Fewer free reign by criminals to both
act criminally and get rich from it too.
Also with the Teshuva: why do you have to make it so hard ? Once the
redemption is here, and we're all living a better life, then that's
great isn't it ? It's here even for the animals, then how much more for
the goyim, and how much more for those who ever in their existence
fought for social justice on Earth ? Even if they've let go of that
right now ? Why try to tie yourselves in all these 'spiritual knots' ?
Redemption comes, everyone thinks it's great, people change some of
their evil inclination attitude for the better, maybe everything even,
and life should be a lot more enjoyable.
Except for those few jews, who hammer themselves on the head day in day
out forever that they just wheren't having done Teshuva at the point of
redemption ? Let it go, and enjoy life ! I mean good life of course, not
the criminal abusive parasitic life of course. Who are these Rabbis to
say anything, is it in the Torah what they said ?
It sounds rather like a jezus-cult they brought me up in, which was
always throwing around these threats of eternal damnation for nothing.
What does the Torah say: It says you will forget your transgressions,
they will be cast in the depth of the ocean.
Rabbis might want to try to read the Torah some day, maybe it would do
them good.
