Being Careful with the G-d's Name on The Computer - A Question for the Rabbi
How do Jews treat hard drive ROM if it contains permanently stored sacred information? Should it ever be deleted? Should a name of Gd be saved if it is encoded in data? We are careful with languages other than Hebrew. Why would the readable language a computer processes be any different? Some software is more powerful than other software when it comes to file deletion, which opens up a similar question: If the computer code for a word such as “Gd” enters a computer, is it okay to delete any of its sacred contents at all? Perhaps, computers should be made more sacred by programming them to remember every key stroke, or use picture recognition to save words such as Gd, such that Gd never ends up deleted. Even images of words in the refresh rate of a monitor could be saved. Why not?

Sales of Decadent Sugary Foods Aren't Sustainable
Recently, I encountered
the stats that within a generation’s time 1 in 3 Americans will have diabetes,
and that consequently life expectancy will likely plummet. This diabetes threat is real. It could happen, especially given the prevalence
of foods with added sugar at the average American grocery store.
Greedy capitalists have
placed faith in idols. They have no fear, for
as Judaism puts it, “They say God does not avenge.” They are fearlessly profiting by getting us
hooked on added sugar, where sugar should be regarded as a dangerous drug.
We don’t want to sustain
capitalism's greed. It is flawed and
outdated, and it must pass. Transition to the new system probably won’t be easy. This will likely present difficult times at
first, which may be likened to birthing pains, where the end result will be an
awesome and wonderful creation.
