Join us as we examine the morality of evil and its consequences in our modern world, using the narrative of Noach from the Torah as a lens. We reflect on why God decided to obliterate all life forms from the face of the earth, and why such an extreme action is deemed necessary in the face of evil. We grapple with the concept of how man's wickedness impacts the innocent, leading to the destruction of birds, animals, and creatures. Noach, the man who maintained his righteousness in the midst of all this wickedness, is also a focus of our discussion.

The discussion continues with a contemplation on maintaining a moral compass amidst ridicule and a wicked world. We explore the need to address our own flaws and promote good in the world, drawing lessons from God's instruction to Noach to obliterate evil. We also talk about how the current global events mirror the tales of the Torah, especially the ongoing violence and terrorism from Hamas in Gaza. Tune in for an enlightening conversation that links ancient wisdom with current events, challenging us to reflect on our own actions and choices in today's world.
