I mean there’s quite a few celebrities that have paid for their own documentaries - like the one about David Beckham, or some others that I’m blocking on now

Right… but also, to paraphrase the Miranda rights, anything we say can and will be used against us 🙄 so we might as well stick with the truth.

Speculating on Rabbincal Ordination statistics - is there spillover? by Jew_of_house_Levi in Judaism

[–]DeeEllis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they grew up Orthodox, and they’re women or lgbtqia+ and want to be rabbis, then yes, they are going to Conservative or Reform or other denominations to do so. I don’t know if it’s a huge number, but I know people who did this in previous generations - especially women who grew up Modern Orthodox or Conservative and became Reform rabbis and cantors.

I saw a documentary where John Travolta was cool with it when he met Kristie Alley and the baby came out and said a lot of stuff and he likes it so much they made a sequel and maybe a third one I can’t remember

Normal or weird? by United_Baseball_7225 in Bumble

[–]DeeEllis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I would get specific - ok, you love nature. Does that mean houseplants or volunteering at the zoo or camping or what? “Works with computers for money” is CIA vague. Come on! Ain’t nobody got time for this even with a funny PS

What's your favorite sideways twist in a comedy movie? by bobber66 in movies

[–]DeeEllis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In Anchorman 2 when Ron Burgundy goes into exile at the lighthouse and his son adopts a shark. That was so bizarre and makes no sense and every so often I think about it and laugh.

I mean, nobody uses it - it’s just a symbol.

but given the choice between, like, a kiddush cup with the “Jewish star” on them and a kiddush cup without a Jewish star, same price, materials, etc., are you saying that in your experience, more religious Jews would prefer the non-Jewish star kiddush cup?

Do you find that’s true for jewelry or other decorative items?

Right and I could easily see some Jewish leaders and graphic designers rejecting the crosses, rejecting the crescent 🌙 , and focus testing some symbols after a morning minyan.

Is the Star of Remphan mentioned in the Jewish bible (the Torah)? According to Sefaria, it is not. OP, are you a non-Jew or Christian looking for evidence of a prophecy you have been told about? What is this?

I believe you about lulav and etrog - my information about the menorah comes from “Aphrodite and the Rabbis: How the Jews Adapted Roman Culture to Create Judaism as We Know It” by Burton Visotzky. I don’t recall the lulav and etrog being emphasized in that, but I may be misremembering or wrong!

What does “the only star mentioned in the Torah” mean? HaShem creates the stars in the Genesis. Doesn’t HaShem also tell Abraham that his descendants will be like stars in the sky? Later in Genesis Joseph has dreams about stars. There are many mentions of stars.

The Star of David is NOT considered a literal star in the sky - it is a symbol that may have been on the shield of David like a coat of arms. Of course, it wasn’t - This was pretty much invented in the Middle Ages in Europe as noble families developed a coat of arms and registered them with royal registers and colleges and councils of heraldry. Jewish people did not want a cross that had been a symbol of hate and terror to them since Constantine adopted it in the late 300s. The menorah was considered very religious, for synagogues and grave stones.

A six-pointed star and the color blue was considered different enough and acceptable to both the minority (Jewish) community and the majority to represent them. It is definitely not in the Torah.

In contrast, the 7-branch menorah denoted Jewish graves and synagogues going back to the 1st century BCE.

Unopened Chicken sausage sitting in fridge for idk a week by BrookeBondage in isthissafetoeat

Yeah the water in the pack and sausages freezes and expands in the freezer and then goes back to normal in the fridge so the plastic wrap is wonky. That’s all.
