I find it no less than amazing that so many people are opinionated about issues that they know absolutely nothing about. Regarding any issue there are three possible attitudes someone can have: 1) How can I have an opinion when I know nothing about it? 2) I know nothing about the issue but I still have an opinion about it (even a very strong one). 3) I have researched the issue and understand the different angles and have come to a conclusion. Number 1 and 3 are honest, number 2 is idiotic and arrogant.
For instance abortion. (I don’t mean the Authentic Torah opinion about this, but from a political/social outlook). How many of those “enlightened” liberals know even what an abortion is? Do they know how it is done and what the fetus goes through and what subsequent medical effects it has on the mother?
I have a relative who boasts of being “liberal”. She is for abortion, and against animal suffering (that means even an animal is better than an unborn human being) and of course against capital punishment. She has no idea what an abortion really is, and has spent ZERO time doing homework on the issue but of course has a very strong opinion about it.
That’s just the way people are. They are ignorant and arrogant.
I know absolutely nothing about Chinese history (I am interested, however, who and when they invented paper, because our Sages refer to paper quite frequently. Maybe another Authentic Jewish first. Like electricity, which was not discovered by Ben Franklin (who by the way was a gay lowlife) with his kite and key, but by our sages 2000 years earlier as is mentioned in Tosefta Beitza. Also the one of the Baalei Hatosfos and the son of the Vilna Gaon apparently discovered the light bulb or something similar to it). Therefor I have absolutely no opinion regarding any issues of Chinese history. I am totally ignorant about it and openly admit so.
It is amazing how many lash out at a variety of issues we have discussed in this blog and absolutely know nothing about what they are talking about. For instance, regarding the impostors AY Kook and JB Solovechick. I have been called the worst names by many a commenter, but all of them share a common denominator: They haven’t done their homework. They know nothing about the EPIKORSUS that these impostors have written. It’s not that they haven’t studied the issue with an open mind, they haven’t studied it at all.
So all you have to do is think it through and then you will realize the truth (hopefully…)
