One of the disadvantages of having a low demographics is that our community is struggling to rectify its mistakes.
I will tell you about a particular error.

In Hebrew, "cohen" means "prophet".
As you may know, Cohen is a family name that is very common in the Jewish community.

It seems to me that it is not something good.
I think that this organization of our community, with prophets, is not something good.
I think it's something that has had its place at some point in history, but it's not beneficial anymore.

For me, naming prophets, and encouraging people in this way is a mistake.
I think that this structure organized with prophets is a mistake: for me, it shows a lack of pragmatism.

We can not have a healthy society if we convince ourselves for no reason that some people have powers that they do not have in reality.
As a scientist, I think it's quite absurd to believe that some people are prophets.
There is no evidence of such a thing.



Since the Yalta conference of 1945, experiments for which the initial hypothesis is implausible are prohibited.
If anyone wanted to do an experiment to prove that lions are able to live on Mars, without oxygen, it would be forbidden to him.
There is, however, a very small chance that this is possible (there is a very small chance that lions are able to live without oxygen on Mars).
But to experience such a thing is forbidden in the name of decency.
(lions have a right not to become the objects of mad scientists)

In the same way, I think it's wrong to name prophet people in the Jewish community.
It's too implausible.

I think this organization of the Jewish community around prophets is something wrong.
So, what organization to adopt instead?
I think that the best organization to adopt for the Jewish community is to do as in many other communities: to gather around symbolic places.

According to my experience, Jews gather little except to recite prayers.
I think it's something wrong.
It's important to get together.

It's important to talk to others, and get to know them.

Here is a quote I like about travel and meetings:
« Voyager sans rencontrer l’autre, ce n’est pas voyager, c’est se déplacer »
Alexandra David Neel

« Traveling without meeting each other is not traveling, it is moving »
Alexandra David Neel

I think Jews have to learn to meet.
I think that Jews must learn to appreciate moments of exchange and complicity with others.
We are not productivity machines.
We have the right to appreciate life and the world around us.
It is only in this way that donations to poor countries will increase.
It is only in this way that charitable, humanitarian and ecological organizations will really be encouraged.

It is by enjoying life that we will learn to love life.
C'est en appréciant la vie qu'on apprendra à aimer la vie.

I'm done with this blog.
I hope it interested you.
I hope you learned things.
I hope you have come to know me, and to know the Sephardic community and the Jewish community.
I hope my works will serve something.
I hope that this social science I created will serve to re-organize the international community.

The best of wishes for the future.
Our future, to you and me.

I hope that... we will succeed in organizing a healthy and peaceful society.
I love... life.
I am afraid of... malevolence.
I know... there is a need for social sciences.

If you want to help me, post these pictures on twitter please.

Here is a message I sent to an American:
