Q&A: Evolution and Age of the Universe
Q&A: Evolution and Age of the Universe
May 11, 2015
19:55
A simplistic reading of Genesis, interpolated from Adam to present day, results in a universe that is less than 6,000 years old. Scientific methods date the universe as being 13.8 billion years old, a discrepancy that is decidedly beyond the margin of error. How do we reconcile our faith with what science has empirically concluded? Perhaps a simplistic […]

Q&A: Execution for Shabbos Desecration?
Q&A: Execution for Shabbos Desecration?
May 11, 2015
28:40
The Torah rules that a Jew who desecrates the Shabbat by performing one of the 39 prohibited categories of work is executed. Should we really round up and detain all the Jews driving to shul on Shabbos, try them and execute them? The punishment seems excessive for the crime.

Mother’s Day Special: Lessons in Gratitude and Appreciation
May 11, 2015
1:21:02
Unfortunately and ironically, we often appreciate the least the people to whom we owe the most. If a total stranger gave you $235,000 – the amount it costs parents to raise a child to the age of 18 – you would be eternally indebted to him/her. But our parents contribution to us extends far beyond […]

If God decides and knows everything, what do I have to lose by walking through a highway blindfolded? God makes people sick. If so, should we try to undo that via prayer?
