The
picture of European leaders marching through Paris a couple of days ago
upset the mad fringe of Jewish orthodoxy because it included females.
The figures of Mrs Merkel, Denmark's Thorning-Shimidt and Paris mayor
Anne Hidalgo were all air brushed out of the picture in their newspaper
in Israel so as not to upset the orthodox Jew who see his women folk as
belonging to the home !
Is it something to do with "Abraham" ?
Both this Jewish fringe and the Muslim believe in keeping their women at home, out of sight. Abraham is the connective biblical link between the faiths so the connection to this mad miscellany of ideas is yet again a religious one.
Once more we have to question the whole basis of mankind's obsession with seeking an extension to this life through religious dogma, a solution to the unpalatable knowledge that death awaits all of us and this persona which we have created in our minds over the years is nothing but a bag of air, rapidly deteriorating.
When the moment comes we, as in the self image I have of me, will cease to exist and only memories people might perhaps have of me will remain.
Oh of course I was forgetting there will be, in the cloud, my blog and what it has to say about me and the people I knew.
