You can never be Jewish enough.

Studying Judaism has proven only one thing to me, you can never be Jewish enough.  Just like, you can never be Discordian enough (see where this is going now?).  You can never be rich enough, strong enough, powerful enough, enlightened enough, illuminated enough, funnay enough, goodlooking enough, or even smart enough.

We are countinually trapped in these patterns, downward spirals of what we have to be, what we have to follow and how best to be and follow those things.  After awhile the only people worth calling people are those who are ,Äú-enough,Äù, those who we feel have walked far enough down this path, worked hard enough, or were born right to be considered people.

Eris, of course, thinks this is all rather funny.  During one conversation I had with her (while sitting in my Anthropology of Judaism class, no less) she mentioned, ,Äúall you apes look the same to me.,Äù  Of course, she had very little room to talk, seeing as she was speaking through a small picture of a Neanderthal that I had drawn instead of listening to the Professor.  I,Äôm sure there is something ironic there, but I,Äôm still not sure what it is.  She is probably still having giggling fits over it.

You see, it,Äôs not that Eris thinks that we,Äôre all equal (we,Äôre really not), but she can,Äôt tell us apart most of the time unless she feels like putting effort into it (and, we all know how that goes).  Eris, my dear ladies and hate-shitters, doesn,Äôt care whether you a great Rabbi, ranter, or preacher.  She,Äôs gonna fuck with your head anyway.

So it,Äôs useless to say ,Äúwhy me,Äù  or, ,Äúgod I hate you so much because you let something happen to me that has happened to the rest of the universe,Äù or something like that.  Instead, I prefer to look up at the sky, shake my fist, and say, ,Äúwhen this is over can I have a lollipop?,Äù

Or not.  It,Äôs probably better to let some 500lbs hairy man rape your nostrils on tape so you can make $300 or $400.

I can finally retire and stop ranting.

Finally.
