R' Fivel Yedidya Glasser wrote this week's Canfei Nesharim Torah Commentary. I especially liked this paragraph:
For Your Community - Parshas HaShavua | Canfei Nesharim
But it's hard for me to read Torah teachings by people who live in places like Bat Ayin, a West Bank Settlement associated with extremist Jewish nationalism. Rumor has it that non-Jews are not allowed to enter the gates of the community. How can the teaching in the link above be kosher if it comes out of a Yeshiva that produces "treyf" teachings of hate?

Much of today’s environmental crisis stems from laziness, detachment and simply cutting corners, not malicious destruction. If everyone, from the average consumer to the corporate CEO, dedicated time each day to rekindle their own inner-potential as vehicles for G-d in the world, their use of the natural world would be informed by their relationship with the Creator of the natural world. It does not really matter if one is controlling a multi-national corporation or running a household, the reality is that mindfulness of the bigger picture is an essential tool for any individual who cares about the world in which we live.
