However, we are going to be talking about a different (although somewhat related) side of his postdoctoral research. This aspect of his work involves theoretical explorations of molecular computation, which are deeply inspired by Randy Gallistel and Adam King's book Memory and the Computational Brain. Randy has been on the podcast before to discuss his ideas that memory needs to be stored in something more stable than the synapses between neurons, and how that something could be genetic material like RNA. When Hessam read this book, he was re-inspired to think of the brain the way he used to think of it before experimental neuroscience challenged his views. It re-inspired him to think of the brain as a computational system. But it also led to what we discuss today, the idea that RNA has the capacity for universal computation, and Hessam's development of how that might happen. So we discuss that background and story, why universal computation has been discovered in organisms yet since surely evolution has stumbled upon it, and how RNA might and combinatory logic could implement universal computation in nature.

Send us a Text Message.In this insightful sermon, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath delves into the human aversion to criticism through the lens of Torah teachings and Chassidic wisdom. Using the biblical narrative of Moses rebuking the tribes of Reuben and Gad, Rabbi Bernath explores why criticism is often met with resentment and how it can be transformed into a tool for personal growth. The sermon also draws on the poignant Chassidic story of the Sefas Emes and the philosophical journey of Solomon Maimon to highlight the importance of embracing criticism as a pathway to self-improvement and spiritual elevation.Takeaways:Embrace Criticism: Criticism, especially from wise and respected individuals, should be cherished as an opportunity for growth rather than a personal attack.Historical Lessons: The story of Moses rebuking Reuben and Gad teaches the value of patience and listening to criticism before reacting.Self-Esteem: Building a solid core of self-worth helps one to handle criticism gracefully and utilize it for personal development.Humility: Recognizing our own imperfections and areas for growth is essential in accepting and benefiting from criticism.Relationship Dynamics: In personal relationships, especially marriage, viewing criticism as a constructive dialogue can strengthen bonds and promote mutual understanding.Support the Show.Got your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

IS THERE A ONE TRUE GOD OVERVIEW: There are many sources of information that people use to infer what might be true about God, including observation and revelation: Observation Some say that general observations of the universe support the existence of God, such as the idea of a non-eternal universe as shown by the Big Bang theory. Other observations that might support God's existence include the Earth's weather patterns, which some say are finely tuned to support human life, and the way nature works to form life. Revelation Some say that God may have entered the universe and told us true things about himself, morality, and how to have a relationship with him. This includes the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth. The Bible also includes passages that some say indicate that God has made evidence of his existence so obvious that there is no excuse for denying him.  IS THERE PROOF OF GOD'S EXISTENCE? The existence of God is a subject of debate in the philosophy of religion.[1] A wide variety of arguments for and against the existence of God can be categorized as logical, empirical, metaphysical, subjective or scientific. In philosophical terms, the question of the existence of God involves the disciplines of epistemology (the nature and scope of knowledge) and ontology (study of the nature of being or existence) and the theory of value (since some definitions of God include "perfection"). The Western tradition of philosophical discussion of the existence of God began with Plato and Aristotle, who made arguments for the existence of a being responsible for fashioning the universe, referred to as the demiurge or the unmoved mover, that today would be categorized as cosmological arguments. Other arguments for the existence of God have been proposed by St. Anselm, who formulated the first ontological argument; Thomas Aquinas, who presented his own version of the cosmological argument (the first way); René Descartes, who said that the existence of a benevolent God is logically necessary for the evidence of the senses to be meaningful. John Calvin argued for a sensus divinitatis, which gives each human a knowledge of God's existence. Islamic philosophers who developed arguments for the existence of God comprise Averroes, who made arguments influenced by Aristotle's concept of the unmoved mover; Al-Ghazali and Al-Kindi, who presented the Kalam cosmological argument; Avicenna, who presented the Proof of the Truthful; and Al-Farabi, who made Neoplatonic arguments. In philosophy, and more specifically in the philosophy of religion, atheism refers to the proposition that God does not exist.[2] Some religions, such as Jainism, reject the possibility of a creator deity. Philosophers who have provided arguments against the existence of God include David Hume, Ludwig Feuerbach, and Bertrand Russell. Theism, the proposition that God exists, is the dominant view among philosophers of religion.[3] In a 2020 PhilPapers survey, 69.50% of philosophers of religion stated that they accept or lean towards theism, while 19.86% stated they accept or lean towards atheism.[4] Prominent contemporary philosophers of religion who defended theism include Alvin Plantinga, Yujin Nagasawa, John Hick, Richard Swinburne, and William Lane Craig, while those who defended atheism include Graham Oppy, Paul Draper, Quentin Smith, J. L. Mackie, and J. L. Schellenberg. Traditional religious definition of God In classical theism, God is characterized as the metaphysically ultimate being (the first, timeless, absolutely simple and sovereign being, who is devoid of any anthropomorphic qualities), in distinction to other conceptions such as theistic personalism, open theism, and process theism. Classical theists do not believe that God can be completely defined. They believe it would contradict the transcendent nature of God for mere humans to define him. Robert Barron explains by analogy that it seems impossible for a two-dimensional object to conceive of three-dimensional humans.[7] In modern Western societies, the concepts of God typically entail a monotheistic, supreme, ultimate, and personal being, as found in the Christian, Islamic and Jewish traditions. In monotheistic religions outside the Abrahamic traditions, the existence of God is discussed in similar terms. In these traditions, God is also identified as the author (either directly or by inspiration) of certain texts, or that certain texts describe specific historical events caused by the God in question or communications from God (whether in direct speech or via dreams or omens). Some traditions also believe that God is the entity which is currently answering prayers for intervention or information or opinions. Ibn Rushd, a 12th-century Islamic scholar Many Islamic scholars have used philosophical and rational arguments to prove the existence of God. For example, Ibn Rushd, a 12th-century Islamic scholar, philosopher, and physician, states there are only two arguments worthy of adherence, both of which are found in what he calls the "Precious Book" (The Qur'an). Rushd cites "providence" and "invention" in using the Qur'an's parables to claim the existence of God. Rushd argues that the Earth's weather patterns are conditioned to support human life; thus, if the planet is so finely-tuned to maintain life, then it suggests a fine tuner—God. The Sun and the Moon are not just random objects floating in the Milky Way, rather they serve us day and night, and the way nature works and how life is formed, humankind benefits from it. Rushd essentially comes to a conclusion that there has to be a higher being who has made everything perfectly to serve the needs of human beings.[8][9] Moses ben Maimon, widely known as Maimonides, was a Jewish scholar who tried to logically prove the existence of God. Maimonides offered proofs for the existence of God, but he did not begin with defining God first, like many others do. Rather, he used the description of the earth and the universe to prove the existence of God. He talked about the Heavenly bodies and how they are committed to eternal motion. Maimonides argued that because every physical object is finite, it can only contain a finite amount of power. If everything in the universe, which includes all the planets and the stars, is finite, then there has to be an infinite power to push forth the motion of everything in the universe. Narrowing down to an infinite being, the only thing that can explain the motion is an infinite being (meaning God) which is neither a body nor a force in the body. Maimonides believed that this argument gives us a ground to believe that God is, not an idea of what God is. He believed that God cannot be understood or be compared.[10] Non-personal definitions of God In pantheism, God and the universe are considered to be the same thing. In this view, the natural sciences are essentially studying the nature of God. This definition of God creates the philosophical problem that a universe with God and one without God are the same, other than the words used to describe it. Deism and panentheism assert that there is a God distinct from, or which extends beyond (either in time or in space or in some other way) the universe. These positions deny that God intervenes in the operation of the universe, including communicating with humans personally. The notion that God never intervenes or communicates with the universe, or may have evolved into the universe (as in pandeism), makes it difficult, if not by definition impossible, to distinguish between a universe with God and one without. The Ethics of Baruch Spinoza gave two demonstrations of the existence of God.[11] The God of Spinoza is uncaused by any external force and has no free will, it is not personal and not anthropomorphic. Debate about how theism should be argued In Christian faith, theologian and philosopher Thomas Aquinas made a distinction between: (a) preambles of faith and (b) articles of faith.[12] The preambles include alleged truths contained in revelation which are nevertheless demonstrable by reason, e.g., the immortality of the soul, the existence of God. The articles of faith, on the other hand, contain truths that cannot be proven or reached by reason alone and presuppose the truths of the preambles, e.g., in Christianity, the Holy Trinity, is not demonstrable and presupposes the existence of God. The argument that the existence of God can be known to all, even prior to exposure to any divine revelation, predates Christianity.[clarification needed] Paul the Apostle made this argument when he said that pagans were without excuse because "since the creation of the world God's invisible nature, namely, his eternal power and deity, has been clearly perceived in the things that have been made".[13] In this, Paul alludes to the proofs for a creator, later enunciated by Thomas Aquinas[14] and others, that had also been explored by the Greek philosophers. Another apologetical school of thought, including Dutch and American Reformed thinkers (such as Abraham Kuyper, Benjamin Warfield, and Herman Dooyeweerd), emerged in the late 1920s. This school was instituted by Cornelius Van Til, and came to be popularly called presuppositional apologetics (though Van Til felt "transcendental" would be a more accurate title). The main distinction between this approach and the more classical evidentialist approach is that the presuppositionalist denies any common ground between the believer and the non-believer, except that which the non-believer denies, namely, the assumption of the truth of the theistic worldview. In other words, presuppositionalists do not believe that the existence of God can be proven by appeal to raw, uninterpreted, or "brute" facts, which have the same (theoretical) meaning to people with fundamentally different worldviews, because they deny that such a condition is even possible. They claim that the only possible proof for the existence of God is that the very same belief is the necessary condition to the intelligibility of all other human experience and action. They attempt to prove the existence of God by means of appeal to the transcendental necessity of the belief—indirectly (by appeal to the unavowed presuppositions of the non-believer's worldview) rather than directly (by appeal to some form of common factuality). In practice this school uses what have come to be known as transcendental arguments. These arguments claim to demonstrate that all human experience and action (even the condition of unbelief, itself) is a proof for the existence of God, because God's existence is the necessary condition of their intelligibility. Protestant Christians note that the Christian faith teaches "salvation is by faith",[15] and that faith is reliance upon the faithfulness of God. The most extreme example of this position is called fideism, which holds that faith is simply the will to believe, and argues that if God's existence were rationally demonstrable, faith in its existence would become superfluous. Søren Kierkegaard argued that objective knowledge, such as 1+1=2, is unimportant to existence. If God could rationally be proven, his existence would be unimportant to humans.[citation needed] It is because God cannot rationally be proven that his existence is important to us. In The Justification of Knowledge, the Calvinist theologian Robert L. Reymond argues that believers should not attempt to prove the existence of God. Since he believes all such proofs are fundamentally unsound, believers should not place their confidence in them, much less resort to them in discussions with non-believers; rather, they should accept the content of revelation by faith. Reymond's position is similar to that of his mentor Gordon Clark, which holds that all worldviews are based on certain unprovable first premises (or, axioms), and therefore are ultimately unprovable. The Christian theist therefore must simply choose to start with Christianity rather than anything else, by a "leap of faith". This position is also sometimes called presuppositional apologetics, but should not be confused with the Van Tillian variety. THE HISTORICAL JESUS According to Christianity, Jesus is the Son of God as chronicled in the Bible's New Testament, and in most Christian denominations He is held to be God the Son, a prosopon (Person) of the Trinity of God. Christians believe him to be the messiah, or a saviour (giving him the title Christ), who was prophesied in the Bible's Old Testament. Through Jesus's crucifixion and resurrection, Christians believe that God offers humans salvation and eternal life,[1] with Jesus's death atoning for all sin, thus making humanity right with God. The commonly held belief among Christians is the phrase, "Jesus died for your sins," and thus they accept that salvation is only possible through him.[2] These teachings emphasize that as the Lamb of God, Jesus chose to suffer nailed to the cross at Calvary as a sign of his obedience to the will of God, as an "agent and servant of God".[3][4] Jesus's choice positions him as a man of obedience, in contrast to Adam's disobedience.[5] According to the New Testament, after God raised him from the dead,[6] Jesus ascended to heaven to sit at the right hand of God the Father,[7] with his followers awaiting his return to Earth and God's subsequent Last Judgment.[8] According to the gospel accounts, Jesus was born of a virgin, instructed other Jews how to follow God (sometimes using parables), performed miracles and gathered disciples. Christians generally believe that this narrative is historically true. While there has been theological debate over the nature of Jesus, Trinitarian Christians believe that Jesus is the Logos, God incarnate (God in human form), God the Son, and "true God and true man"—fully divine and fully human. Jesus, having become fully human in all respects, suffered the pains and temptations of a mortal man, yet he did not sin.

What happens when a profound decision alters the course of history? Enter the realm of insightful Jewish narratives and join us as we dissect the profound effect of Jacob's decision to return to Har Hamoriah for prayer. The story of Rachel Emeinu naming her son Naftali, epitomizing struggle and growth, is woven into this tapestry of wisdom. Our knowledgeable guests will share fresh perspectives and interpretations to broaden your horizons.The essence of resilience is echoed in the dedication of Jewish leaders like the Rambam and the Chafetz Chaim. Despite hurdles and tribulations, their resolve to achieve their goals remained unbroken. We explore the strength that orchestrated their decision to write the Mishneh Torah and the Mishnah Berurah, respectively, shedding light on the power of unwavering commitment. As we navigate the lives of Moshe ben Maimon, the Chofetz Chaim, and Esther, you'll see how an unwavering commitment to a decision can lead to success. We conclude by illuminating the potency of decision-making and the relentless pursuit of goals.

When Cecilly Routman discovered that most of her Jewish kinswomen supported abortion, she was shocked...and became an advocate for the unborn. She quotes Moses ben Maimon...“It is important to not believe everything you think. People idolize their intellect. Especially intelligent people…educated people, people who spent a lot of time in higher education. Or come out of families where that is important…look at how we think and question what our views are...we are very wedded to them…unfortunately we are human, and the mind can be bent, distorted and warped.” Paraphrased from The Guide For The Perplexed. This is an extraordinary episode as one women questions why her people could think such a thing, and fights to save every Jewish child. About Cecily Routman: Cecily Routman is the President of the Jewish Pro-Life Foundation, an educational non-profit public charity, that she founded in 2006. The Jewish Pro-Life Foundation provides much needed Torah based pro-life education to the Jewish community, Jewish friendly pregnancy care and adoption referrals, and healing after abortion to Jewish women and men who suffer after abortion. Cecily obtained her MSW from the University of Pittsburgh. She lives with the memory of her late husband, Tom, in the Pittsburgh area. About Awakened Nation: A Deep Dive Into The Extraordinary.

Although Kant considered him the greatest critic of his work, and Fichte thought him the most impressive mind of the generation, Salomon Maimon (1753-1800) has fallen into relative obscurity. Apiqoros: The Last Essays of Salomon Maimon (Hebrew Union College Press, 2021) draws attention to works written during the final years of Maimon's life. These essays are of particular interest: they show that even though Maimon was a self-proclaimed apiqoros grappling with the implications of Kantian philosophy, his thinking remained deeply influenced by his Jewish intellectual inheritance, especially by Maimonides. The volume is divided into two parts. The first is a general account of Maimon's intellectual biography, along with commentary on his final essays. The second part provides translations of those essays, the principal themes of which concern moral psychology. The reader is thus able to see the degree to which Maimon, at the end of his life, became skeptical of his effort to unite Kant and Maimonides, and remained a thinker caught "between two worlds." The book concludes with a translation of an account of Maimon's final hours, penned by one of his friends. Learn more about your ad choices.

Fraudology is presented by Spec. Join us at MRC in Las Vegas and mention code word FRAUDOLOGY at booth 306 for your secret Spec swag.David Maimon is back (after Tuesday's episode) with even more insightful observations from his team's research of the cybercrime ecosystem. He first shares what the "Evidence Based Cybersecurity Research Group" at Georgia State University has observed about different groups & types of groups of cybercriminals. Including the online fraud methods, tools, and tactics that Russians cybercriminals prefer to the measurable impacts of the Russian Invasion of Ukraine on international cybercrime.David then talks about one of the biggest changes over the last 2-3 years within the online fraud ecosystem, especially those targeting US companies' fraud methods that have grown exponentially. -The biggest threats are no longer external. "The call is coming from inside the house." The fact that the biggest threat actors to online companies & financial institutions are within the borders, by US citizens makes the types of fraud & methods being used much harder to identify than foreign threats. Whether it's identity fraud using stolen or fraudulent identity documents (driver's licenses, passports, etc.), check fraud, or refund claims fraud, American cybercriminals have the most to gain from American businesses. -With very little, if any repercussions.After talking about some of the reasons why internal cybercrime is so much more difficult for fraud detection technology (especially detection technology that hasn't been updated in the last 2 years), Karisse & David talk about what the US government would need to do to even start to get a handle on these issues. But private companies can only do so much, no matter how much they spend to detect fraud; if changes aren't made to the low requirements to obtain identity documentation w/ a fake or stolen identity, there prevention efforts can only detect & prevent so much.David ends the episode with probably the most informative 15 minutes you will hear this week as he talks about the top cybercrime threats he & his team are seeing being discussed and shared within the "criminal underground". From check fraud no longer being preventable by using gel pens to the millions of fake identities that are quietly aging, these new threats remind all of us that this battle to make it more difficult for cyberfraud to be committed is endless; often with more battles lost than won. -But that also highlights the critical importance of collaboration & information sharing, like we do on Fraudology, more than ever.If you don't already follow David on LinkedIn, it will be the smartest decision you make all day: https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-maimon-29343632/To read some of the public research reports, and to learn more about the Evidence Based Cybersecurity Research Group at GSU: https://ebcs.gsu.edu/about/ Fraudology is hosted by Karisse Hendrick, a fraud fighter with decades of experience advising hundreds of the biggest ecommerce companies in the world on fraud, chargebacks, and other forms of abuse impacting a company's bottom line.

Yeah, we've heard the melodies from prayers in shull. But does our sense of tune go beyond that? Is the melody really just there to make the prayers more interesting? Or do Jews, both religious and secular, embrace a deeper and more meaningful heritage of music? Jonathan Maimon, producer, and director of I Hear You, jumps onto Bad Jew with Chaz Volk to shed light on the Torah's perspective on music. They learn its importance to Judaism, how modern trends in music and dance were introduced, and the importance of preserving the past's feats while rediscovering the new. Jonathan Maimon is a film director. His first film, “Journey from Tunisia” (2017) about his grandparents and family's journey from Tunisia to Israel, was selected to play at film festivals in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles and screened in London and Europe. When he's not working on film, he's attending music shows, building mobile apps and websites, and playing tennis. *Donate to Jonathan Maimon's film "I Hear You" *Enjoy exciting Kickstarter reward levels here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1556248266/i-hear-you-the-israeli-folk-music-film?ref=bqbbex&token=6793334c Connect with Bad Jew: Join our online community HERE: https://linktr.ee/badjew BadJewPod@gmail.com Ig @BadJewPod TikTok @BadJewPod

Fraudology is presented by Spec. Join us at MRC in Las Vegas and mention code word FRAUDOLOGY at booth 306 for your secret Spec swag.In this episode of Fraudology, cybercrime expert & head of the Evidenced Based CyberSecurity Research Group at Georgia State University, David Maimon shares insights on collecting data from the darknet, identifying emerging trends systematically, and how the cybercrime industry has changed in the last 5 years.As he describes the various components within the world of cybercrime and online fraud, David starts making the comparison of this world to a deep underwater ecosystem. Throughout the conversation, he continues painting the picture of the factors that feed the continuous changes within the ecosystem, including how the ecosystem responds & adapts to antifraud measures in the industry. (This brilliant analogy might just replace Karisse's "infamous" "Zombie metaphor"!)David also talks about the importance of understanding the entire ecosystem of cybercrime in order to implement the right methods to identify & compete with the "parasites"; and he sheds light on some of the misconceptions surrounding fraud prevention. David & Karisse end this conversation by addressing the misconception that any fraud or identity solution will make a difference in the eco-system, or even on the "organism" you are charged with protecting. The truth is, in some cases, cybercriminals have their favorite fraud & identity detection solutions....and that's not good news for the fraud-fighting industry.Join David & Karisse for Part two of this enlightening conversation Thursday's episode (3-23-23).
