Oh btw, I now know what those little pieces of paper on Jewishs graves are...they are requests and wishes that are written and placed on graves of Jews that are considered porminent and more spiritual, in hope that "they" will petition to God on their behalf and get their wishes granted. Also, the meaning of the Star of David...after much search, we found an answer while touring the Dohany Synagogue in Pest. It's as a reminder, or something similar to that, of the 6 continents the Jews scattered to, and the promise of a return to Israel, the incoming gathering of the Jews, united once more. The star was originally used on the shield of David's army, and taken into the modern world, the reason why it was used in King David's time is unknown to me.
