okay say hi say hi so we have some guests from China in this particularly any type of question and that question was why why is well there are still big difference that so why is religion so important in Israel and and I asked this nice lady here I asked her what was important in China and she said that it's that what's important in China is yeah a physically better life it could be that that things in Israel I mean I I don't know how to answer this exactly like the way I was going but but the main point is that is that existence like existing as a human being with all of your needs is to us it's meaningless it doesn't mean anything I mean on a Darwinian level it does meaning like the animal kingdom like existence survival is very important for the plant kingdom survival is very important and for the human Kingdom survival is important but but it's um but once you're surviving so then it leads to more questions of well what do we survive in for on why what am i what am I doing here and what where'd i come from and you know very important questions come up that that are answered by Judaism very important questions come up that that Judaism answers and not only Judaism but I think all the religions of the world are in some level or another there they're out to answer life's questions and and to make sense of our world to make sense of and meaning out of life
