"I'll remember that next time I get banned, and say you told me to do it."
So long as you got a temp ban for something you truly believe in (within reason), then I'd say it could be worthwhile.
Take care all.
The OT refers to it as "the grave" (or "sheol" in Hebrew).
I like it because it's the day I run U-Hauls armed with explosives into random buildings in populated areas of Hell.
I like Kung-Fu.
I have a final that day. Oh well, I don't believe in it anyways.
For some reason, here in Ontario (the cool province in Canada, not the lame city) a whole bunch of people ride their motorcycles to a city called Port Dover.

Have fun on today, the most spooky Friday.
I'm scared i don't think i'm gonna get to sleep tonight
It is better for you to die in hope than to live in despair.
Let me be your liberator.
I treat it like any other day. Mondays on the other hand, was created by some oke for the sole purpose of tormenting the entire planet. Mondays are evil
This particular Friday the 13th is my uncle's birthday. Happy 53rd to him!
Both my mother and her brother were born on the 13th (in different months and different years), so they both celebrate their birthdays on Black Friday every few years. Neither was born on a Friday, though.
I'd rather not think about it, not that I am afraid but I just don't like to think that I'll have a bad lucky day! And today I'll have anew german teacher.... What if she is a witch?!
If there is such thing as luck, I either have none or it's typically bad. Bad luck! Bad! Go to the corner!

Jack: How do you know?
Will: It's more of a feeling really.
Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?
Will: No.

Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
Huxley: NO!
Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
Huxley: You need to leave, John.
Spartan: But Huxley.
Huxley: Get out!
Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.
By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.
NOOOOOOOOOOO~! IT IS A DAY OF GREAT EVIL! OF GREAT, GREAT, GREAT EVIL! ;_________; HOW SCAWEY! SEE HOW THE LIGHTNING STRIKES?!?!?!
I am struck dead. I am now dead. How eeeevil!
Nope. No form of an after-life. You live this life, in this world, and that's all you're getting. There are mentions of an abyssal existence for extremely evil humans, or a heavenly one for extraordinarily good pones, but nothing more, and certainly not a form of an after-life. Any mention of such a thing was done post-Christianity, or under the cultural and religious influence of Christianity. Jews live in this world, according to the basic laws given to them by God (the Commandments, whom every human should follow), and also Jewish-specific laws (Mitzvahs, over 600 of 'em), in order to make them rise above the common human, and to bring them closer to one another and God, and make this world a better place. Jews are not promised any place after their deaths... they should live the life they are given to the best of their ability, because this world is where everyone is, it's the world God created for the humans, and no-one should live for an after-life resport and spa.Do Jews believe in a form of Hell?
The idea is, that if everyone makes the best effort, and live by the rules and performs all the Mitzvahs, this world will turn into a wonderful, heavenly place, just like Adam and Eve were cast out of, only this will be of our doing, and under our own responsibility. The Kingdom of God is his own, and no human is allowed in there. As for Hell... there's no Devil or God-opposing entity in Judaism (since God is all-mighty, none can challenge him), so there's no Hell either. Jews should not live with fear of what will happen to them after they're dead, but rather, live with the thought of making Tikun Olam, which is the supreme act of making this world a better place to live in, for those that will come after them, and not so that they won't be cast into some over-sized barbeque.
*waves!*but I guess I would have to find a Jewish person and ask them to know for sure.
When fighting monsters, be wary not to become one yourself... when gazing into the abyss, bear in mind that the abyss also gazes into you." - Friedrich Nietzsche
