The point of the video - the bible is as good a source of information on the topic of LOVE, as any ancient desert scribblings. Sure, taken on its own, 1 Cor 13:4-7 is very nice, but not as nice as other descriptions of love that human beings have come up with. And anyway - would you take advice about love from someone whose biography revealed them to be an appallingly UNLOVING character in the first place?
The bible demolishes itself as a useful source for anything, other than an anthropological study in the history of metaphysical wonderings, superstition, ignorance, and delusion. When you read the words on the pages of the bible, what you actually see is horror, fear, violence, anger, rage, jealousy (fuck it, I think jealousy is a pretty low emotion/characteristic), pettiness, death, fear, - the very worst of human nature.

Why the Jewish People Should Care about the Events in Japan
Rabbi Ephraim Z. Buchwald, Director of our parent organization, the National Jewish Outreach Program, tells us why the Jews should help Japan and any other country in need. Even though the Jews tend to be an ethnocentric people, we should do more than care, we should reach out to them.
The Talmud tells a story of a man who starts drilling a hole under his seat on a boat. The other passengers started screaming. He said, its my seat, I can do what I want. And they said, but its going to affect us all. We can learn from this, that what happens in Japan will affect us all.
The Bible also tells us we must be concerned with all humanity. We learn this in the story of Jonah. Jonah was sent to Nineveh, a non-Jewish city, to tell the people there to repent. He was reluctant to do it so he tried to hide by getting on a boat. He was thrown overboard and swallowed by a big fish. When he was spit out, God again told him to go to Nineveh and to prophecize as he was told to before. And the people listened and repented. When Jonah came out he slept and a gourd protected him from the sun. And then suddenly the gourd disappeared and Jonah was upset that that his protection was gone. God said to him, you're worried about the gourd, but you weren't worried about humanity?
We must all be concerned for humanity. Not only because the radiation or lack of car parts coming from Japan will affect our lives, but because its humanity. We have to care for all of God's children.

Herman Cain refuses to appoint a Muslim in his administration
Earlier this week, Herman Cain gave an interview to Christianity Today in which he declared that, “based upon the little knowledge that I have of the Muslim religion, you know, they have an objective to convert all infidels or kill them.”
Question: Would you be comfortable appointing a Muslim, either in your cabinet or as a federal judge?
Herman Cain: No, I will not. And here’s why. There is this creeping attempt, there is this attempt to gradually ease Sharia law and the Muslim faith into our government. It does not belong in our government. This is what happened in Europe. And little by little, to try and be politically correct, they made this little change, they made this little change.
Will Herman Cain appoint a black judge?
