The Torah speaks of the demolition of an entire nation that has gone awry. But the Rabbis admitted that even if one kosher mezuzah existed in that evil city, the city would be spared. To destroy a mezuzah with God's name in it would be a sacrilege.
“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.
