Re: Your Religious and/or Spiritual Beliefs Version III -

I am a Chassid. Chassidut is Hebrew for devotion. It basically means that I am devoted to Torah Judaism and also view it from a Kabbalistic standpoint. I put/will put a lot of my religious thoughts on my blog (recently created).
I swear never to be silent whenever wherever human beings are enduring suffering and humiliation. We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion, or political views, that place must — at that moment — become the center of the universe.
