My response to @DaveRubin pertaining to his question of why the machine always seems to be one-step ahead of us:
Dave I am of the opinion that the reason the "Machine" is always one-step ahead of the sane is because they have no life apart from screwing with the world. We in sane world have lives in which we surround ourselves with family, friends, companions, things to do, places to go and people to see; have fun with and great discussions. The machine has none of this. As a result we find ourselves always reacting to what the machine does and says next. To gain the lead we must stop being reactionary and more revolutionary in our behavior and speech. If the Founders of this great nation had only continued to react to the Monarchy's devices then there would have been no Tea Party, no Declaration of Independence and no U.S. Constitution (the greatest non-religious document ever penned). Those were Revolutionary.
Parshat Naso is the longest single parsha in the Torah, clocking in at 176 verses. That’s Torah’s way of saying, “Hey, you might want to take a long , serious and contemplative look at what you’re about to learn.”

Haftarah Lech Lecha: "Fear Not, I Am With You!"
Who, are what, is gained from our obedience to His holy words; and who, or what, suffers in uncounted ways when we, His children - His chosen to be a light to the nations and repairers of the world - fail to follow His words…not rituals, but actual obedience that comes from a daily choice on our part?
