A reasoned analysis of the Florida school shooting. Yes, there is a way to stop these tragedies, but, no, it has nothing to do with guns. What percentage of the hundreds of people you encounter every day are really crazy? How many so-called āhomelessā are mentally imbalanced? Do you know why they are not being cared for in medical facilities where they would be safeāand so would we? Do you know any families being torn apart by having to struggle with a deeply troubled teenager all alone? Is the SCOTUS ruling of Roe v. Wade in 1973 connected in any way to the Parkland, Florida school shooting? Why did Hitler use precious resources killing 3 million Jews in Poland in 1942 while his eastern front was crumbling at Leningrad? Could you protect your family from a violent home invader?

Everything we think we know about Mutiny on the Bounty is a lie! 3 Hollywood movies distorted the truth. The 1850 novel, The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne is a great work of art nourishing our higher selves with serious thoughts about good and evil, marriage and morality, hypocrisy and nobility, the inevitability of consequences and yes, adultery. The 1995 movie The Scarlet Letter starring Demi Moore has as much to do with the book as the movie Free Willy has to do with Moby Dick, another great American novel written by Herman Melville at the same time as The Scarlet Letter. And while weāre on the topic of books and animals, I tell you something you donāt know about The Life of Pi.

Communicating effectively produces wonderful results in romantic, business & social interactions. Only in politics is the reverse tolerated. Hereās what a politician would call a spade: āItās a one person operated, foot-powered implement of ligno metallic composition designated primarily though by no means exclusively for use in agricultural, horticultural, & constructional activities for purposes of carrying out such excavational tasks as may be designated by supervisory grades.ā Why I would eliminate and ban the use of these meaningless slurs: Anti-Semite, Homophobe, Racist, Sexist, & Capitalist. My answer to a young friendās worry that āTrump will get us into a war.ā

Masturbation, the art of selfishness. Why is the smallest room in the house, the bathroom, so over decorated? Monogrammed towels? Soap shaped like seashells? Really?

If a woman never marries, is she better off with a child or without? Why are welfare recipients not the most patriotic and appreciative citizens? How to avoid all awkwardness in the masturbation conversation with teenagers. Why did the great, great, grandmother of King David dress up as a prostitute? Why did her former father-in-law not recognize her? No it wonāt grow hair on your hands or make you blind, but it willā¦ā¦.

Mrs. Lapin and I were offered a guided tour of the new Museum of the Bible in Washington DC. We accepted, planning on spending an hour there. We were confident that an hour would more than suffice. We know the Bible, right? We frequently visit Israel. Weāve already seen one too many archeological artifacts. Gosh, was I wrong! We spent five hours there. They couldnāt get rid of us. And we are eagerly planning our next visit; sooner rather than later. How often is your rabbi speechless? Ridiculous, right? But I was lost for words. The museum is deeply moving for any American regardless of faith and profoundly impactful for any sentient human being. In this show, I describe what we saw and I place it in cultural context in terms of the socio-political canyon that cuts through our American culture. This is an immensely significant addition to our nation and I feel indebted to the Green family, creators of Hobby Lobby whose generosity and vision made it possible.
