Yes absolutely - we don't all wear the same clothing. Also the ultra-orthodox are not the only community that keeps the Torah laws. If you ask any of them, however, if they wear the clothes they want to wear, the vast majority of them will tell you that they're dressing exactly as they want to. The concept of being…

I moved over to Chrome, and then to Comodo Dragon, which, to my knowledge, is one of the only companies to make use of Chrome being OpenSource.

Why would you disagree with that? We have laws from the Torah, but nobody makes you keep them. We encourage one another to keep the laws of the Torah but each person has free will. Otherwise, how could a rather wealthy Jew just marry a non-Jewish girl?

Yes, your mature response to this discussion has given me new perspective. Thanks.

As far as I know anybody can lobby for changes, but I believe it will be non-Jewish lobbyists who will lobby against porn on the internet first. The Jewish way is to focus on the Jewish community. If others want to make changes to themselves as a result of something the Jewish community did correctly, that's great,…

I believe that a great deal of them are interested in just what you said - filtering the porn. That's the kind of internet service I use. It's called Internet Rimon. It's Israeli based, but available everywhere via VPN. Pretty much the entire internet is available, and you can choose, dynamically, from 6 filtering…

Please see my comment to commander_k

They probably would prefer that the internet would not be in the homes of most of the orthodox community, as TV's are also not in them, and as they do not frequent movie theaters. We do not subscribe to a control mechanism. Every Jew is free to do as he pleases. This is the fundamental basis of the Torah - that…

In Judaism Hell is not a main theme and is rarely discussed. You're thinking of Christianity.

I doubt they invited you. Nobody was telling YOU how to live - the event was for those who attended it.

Like Kosher meat - we already have several kosher ISP's.

I'm Jewish too. They're not stupid. They're trying to build awareness in a community that is beginning to use the internet more and more. There are plenty of good ways to use the internet, and multiple kosher ISP's. They're helping the orthodox community become aware of the kosher options. I personally use…

They didn't protest _your_ religion. You think we should live our lives our way. They think they should live their lives in accordance with the Torah. Judaism views pornography at the very least as a habit that could bring about what the Torah views as serious sins (like adultery, or masturbation), and the most,…

Thanks for the distinction - North Korea. I believe that theirs was also a test, and that this private company is, even in their eyes subconsciously, superior in this respect, and so the expectations would be very high.

The Koreans are laughing at us right now.

Yes, but with pre-defined instructions. This robot autonomously decided to build a cup that it can use based on the need for it to accomplish a task. It could just as well have decided to build a ramp and move the entire water bin to spill it over the rocks. What's not clear here is if it also invented the cup (way…

Either you're making fun of heroineworshipper (who apparently was high when commenting) or you guys have a secret code.

That was the scariest thing I've seen in a long time. Why would the spin cycle automatically start on a machine without putting in money first?!

That's a fairly immature approach to international affairs.
