[HANASHIR:8287] Re: Healing

[Les Goldsmith <lesgoldsmith...>]

What do you mean, Shirona, to kill every cancer cell in the body? What do you 
propose to do, stamp out Orthodox Judaism and all other beliefs that you object 
to?

You and the others who have contributed to this raging debate have made your 
points eloquently and passionately, and given us all something to ponder. Let's 
move on to Jewish music topics.

  As the debate rages on - concerning the Kol Isha Ervah issue, I'm still 
surprised, and disappointed, that so few people  focus on the fundamental 
premise of the problem.  In medicine, and in psychology, it is common knowledge 
that for true healing to take place - one needs to get to the CORE of the 
problem. In order to cure Cancer - we need to kill every cancer cell in the 
body, because if we don't - it will develop all over again.  In healing 
relationships we try our best to get to the bottom line of what is causing the 
problem - because if we don't - the same problem will erupt again, just like 
the cancer.

  Can we all agree that we have a serious problem here?  Can we all agree that 
we need  healing?  

  We need to get to the root of this "pathology".  Why are we wasting so much 
time and energy on  minutiae? How much longer can this dialogue continue poking 
around the surface?   It's like trying to heal Cancer with band-aids.  If we 
don't understand why this problem is so tough to resolve, - we will never heal. 
 It will never just "go away".

  I asked this question before - but no one answered me yet. (except for a 
"diss" from Eric...) 

  There are only TWO sexes in this world,  to the best of my knowledge.  Is it 
OK that one sex has the power to make all the rules that bind both sexes, and 
that the other sex has no say in that process.  For me it is that simple, and 
the answer is either yes or no. If this is not the core issue - then what is?

  Adrian, I hope you don't find this posting too "off-topic".  I'm actually 
trying to hasten a "conclusion"!

  With much respect and anticipation for the full spectrum of opinions out 
there.
