Christianity has made its peace with Original Sin. It has its own way of salvation. Jehovah's Witnesses have drawn out the series of predestination of Calvinism to the mathematical exactitude of predicting that precisely 184,000 saints will be saved and everybody else will be doomed. We Jews have resigned ourselves to the idea that es iz shver tzu zein a yid. -Rabbi Jacob Chinitz
“To say the right thing at the right time, keep still most of the time.” John W. Roper Those who get in trouble most often are those cannot seem to keep still, remain silent. Life teaches many lessons. Among the best lessons of life is one my father taught me at an early age was, “If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing.” The contributions we make to life via our mouth are many and varied. Most of the time, I reckon, they are not contributions at all, but things that diminish the richness of life.
