The purpose of this blog is to act as a fist to the face of the Jewish conscience and to jar Jews out of oblivion. It is a call to return to the Torah, to start the process of tshuvah gemura, and to rid the collective body of the infectious "shtetl syndrome". The Jewish Fist is also a warning to the enemies of the Almighty, whether it be the Arab Amalakites, or the mixed multitude within. The Jewish Fist has risen, and when it descends, G-d help you!
" Thou comest to me with a sword and a spear and a shield, but I come to thee in the name of the L-rd of Hosts, the G-d of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast humiliated..." (I Samuel, 17:45-47)
The Intellect
The Almighty created man with intellect and the ability to abstract and reason. The person committed to truth would be wise to use the intellect carefully, and make sure that his/her emotions are always in line with reason. Animals act purely from instinct, pagans mimic the animals. The intelligent being recognizes that he is distinct from the animals. Free will is the domain of man alone, the ability to choose between good or evil, to sanctify one's being or debase the gift that was given to him/her by the Creator. Abusing one's body and/or mind with drugs, gluttony, pleasure-seeking, and other forms of irresponsible behavior are akin to killing oneself, from a philosophical perspective. Only rational man is capable of discovering truth. Those who focus and fixate on primitive superstitions, "mystical movements", and other "New-Age" forms of idolatry, destroy their souls and distance themselves from the Creator. There is a G-d. An omnipotent Being (so to speak) who created the universe and everything contained within it. Only rational people who commit themselves to genuine truth, will merit to find it.
