Also this year, 5775 since creation (Sept. 25, 2014 - Sept. 13, 2015), is a Shemittah year. Like the seventh day of the week, every seventh year is holy.
The Shemittah (Sabbatical) year is a year devoted to strengthening our bond with God - specifically, honing our faith in His omnipotence and our trust in His kindness.
The next few days will be devoted to celebrating with our Jewish brethren in the form of some interesting posts.

RULES OF THE ROAD:
1)The Names and Titles of God our Father and Jesus Christ our Savior will be respected at all times.
2) Discussion is encouraged, however, respect for other people and their opinions is the rule---play nice.
3) No profanity, allusions, innuendos or just plain nastiness will be tolerated. Decency WILL prevail.
This is MY house and YOU are a guest here and differences of opinion will be tolerated as long as you conduct yourself accordingly. If "the exercise of civility is beyond your ability" or you were never taught by your parents, feel free to take your toys and go home and vent your pent-up anger elsewhere.
