Do We Really Need This Kind of Bigotry?

Your religion might benefit if more relaxed members of it represent Judaism to the World. I think they'll do much better.
They certainly won't be writing stuff like the above.

The various synagogues, schools, and institutions that have hired me as rabbi and teacher seem to think I do just fine representing Judaism to non-Jews when needed.

I think our religion would benefit more from non-Jews being more tolerant and less judgmental, rather than I and other Jews attempting to only say and do the things that please non-Jews.

So yeah is it harming anyone? You know apart from the SJW brigade here.

Wait a minute, are you really asking me that ********? Does trying to control people's lives by pressuring them to uphold exclusionary tribal practices under threat of being shunned by said group harm people? Really? It destroys families. Get a clue.

I dare both of you to find me the scariest or craziest thing the two of you have come across. No, I double dare you. <_< Oh no he didn't ! >_> Yes, yes I did.

I have peeked into the abyss. Only once. Once was enough. I am scarred for life. All I did was read a brief snipped of a "how to" pedophilia discussion between pedophiles.

I can't. I'll get into trouble.

Guise, I'm talking about stuff that I can crazily handle. This would be stuff like dolphins lording over humans; Cat Overlords invading the planet; or baby seals breakdancing with penguins. All that other stuff ya'll can keep to yourselves. Now please hook a brother up and get that "r" into the title. PLEASE !

Stop trying to play the "us vs. them" and victim cards. It's not going to work and is going to do the opposite of making people develop sympathy for you. It's so convenient to always think it's others who need to change and not yourself. It keeps inner reflection to a minimum.

Lol. That's what I thought. There's a lot of things I've seen online that I wish I never had and that will hurt me for the rest of my life. Let's just leave it there.

Jay, do you ever say anything of substance? I'm asking myself why I don't have you on ignore already. Seems that I need to get with the program.
Again:

Who here is doing that? Or is this just free-flowing antisemitism run amok?

Do you really imagine that after everything that has been said about Jews, Judaism, Israel, and Zionism in the past few weeks on this forum that I or any other Jew actually expects sympathy from you or others with such attitudes?

"Playing the victim card" is what people say to minority cultures when they mean "Stop pointing out how I and others like me are intolerant of you and those like you."

But please, by all means, feel free to keep telling us how we need to change Jewish practice and tradition in order to be more acceptable to non-Jews.

Go ahead and ignore the horrible things that have been said and continue to be said about Muslims, Palestinians, gays, women, etc. on here. Some of it is coming from your own tribesmen. I don't see you calling any of them out. Yet you want to act like you're special. You're not. Get over yourself. And don't try to play the minority card with me, either. I'm a member of multiple minorities. You're a Jew who lives in Chicago, and you're probably a white Jew, too. You're not persecuted so quit with the lame attempt at playing the Oppression Olympics.

And....? Your wish.......


Probably because you must have written similar drivel a few pages ago.
When you write that stuff it's looking to me like you are trying to put words into our pens, our minds even...... in which case......... How about you go and..... :D

Of course it must have been because i have written something similar. It cant be that it had nothing to do with me.

Oh goody.



Oh, really? Somehow Reform and Reconstructionist Jews seem to practice their faith just fine without it. No, this shunning, tribalism and ethnocentrism are a basic part of Jewish right-wing fundamentalism. You don't speak for the Jewish people as a whole and thank God.

Oh wow so now its already Jewish right wing fundamentalism.

I wonder if the same is being said about African, South American, Polynesian tribes trying to keep their traditions in the sea of assimilation.

Pressure? Where? Some retards who arent representative on one case?

You act as if there was some kind of Jewish secret police maintaining law and order.

Then you haven't been paying attention.

Yet you want to act like you're special. You're not. Get over yourself.

Fortunately, the specialness of myself or any other Jew-- or any other person, really-- is not dictated by your judgment.

And don't try to play the minority card with me, either. I'm a member of multiple minorities. You're a Jew who lives in Chicago, and you're probably a white Jew, too. You're not persecuted so quit with the lame attempt at playing the Oppression Olympics.

Feel free to keep telling yourself those things if it makes you feel less anti-Semitic.

Some have those beliefs. And?

I wonder if the same is being said about African, South American, Polynesian tribes trying to keep their traditions in the sea of assimilation.

Do those tribes mistreat those who marry outside of their tribe? If so, they should called out, too. Africans and South Americans have always been intermingling with each other. I'm not sure about Polynesians since I'm not too familiar with their cultures.

Pressure? Where? Some retards who arent representative on one case?

You act as if there was some kind of Jewish secret police maintaining law and order.

Do you really think the article in the OP is the only time this has happened?

You are a friendly person.

As if you're the best judge of such things.

I will not speak for Levite- but I think you're largely projecting you're assumptions about Jews onto us. You are no more special than any Jewish person, likewise. No one is claiming to be superior b/c they're Jewish on this forum AFAIK. For what respect I have for you- don't play this "special snowflake" ********.
