Duh, oral Torah was made up.

If you're in this sub you likely believe this as well. Some believe the whole Tanach was made up too. That's fine I'm not here to convince you of it being real or not. I'm just here to present with what is saw written in one and not the other, and my experience.

The Akeida post made me think of writing this one.

Have you tried tell the orthodox or anyone who still believes in oral traditions, including those who believe in wearing a kipah custom, that is all made up and showed them textual contradictions of why.

I have. I've tried so many times to show them but even the secular who don't know enough but respect the books, answer " do you think you're smarter than those very learned in Talmud rabbis ???" They make circular arguments and take out their blind sticks or say " will know the truth whiten Moshiach comes"

Um... read the actual written Torah instead of the rabbis nonsense.

Rabbis made stuff up and have been misleading the nation for centuries. Some did because of control, others because of inconvenience and who knows why else.

Did you know that the precalculated calendar does not follow the moon as it is directed in the written Torah to do. And the Passover followed by many , is only proper if they observe the Aviv, also as directed by the written Torah that the oral Torah supposedly is based on. Thus this year, Jews were eating chametz on Passover, as the new moon came out later than the precalculated calendar.

Deborah's Date tree website or page records the moon sightings , in case you're every curious about that.

So many contradictions,superstitions and just made up stuff in it. Once again, not trying to convince you or validate anything. Just venting I guess

What are some of the most ridiculous superstitions in Judaism that you heard of

I remember one about cutting nails how you have to gather them, or that they have to be in certain order because you will have to come back as lower life form to gather them.

What have you heard or know of that is pure superstition that many Jews in the religious community believe?

Hello,

The top of my hair is mostly grey but the half under is still black. I want to try something without synthetic compounds on my hair that works. Haven't had dye in my hair for 2 years. What would you recommend that works on grey that isn't henna. Henna turned my hair a red tint. I don't just want no ammonia, but nothing synthetic if at all possible. I do understand that the more natural stuff washes out faster than permanent color.

Thank you in advance
