  Look, I don’t like progressive views either, but can we please stop with the personal attacks? The lady can’t help what kind of **** she has, and frankly, I think it’s very nice ****.

• ‘My God Will Wipe This Country From the Face of the Earth’: The Real Louis Farrakhan in His Own Words on GBTV

  If Farrakhan hates it so much in America, maybe he could find his paradise in Saudi Arabia. They’d love to have such an intelligent black man as their servant boy.

• Dad Arrested, Strip-Searched After Daughter Draws a Picture of a Gun in School

  In reply to JackSprat.

  “…the school, police and child welfare officials all stand by their actions….”

  And the alleged authorities response was ” ‘From a public safety point of view, any child drawing a picture of guns and saying there’s guns in a home would warrant some further conversation with the parents and child…’ ”

  Is arresting, strip searching and jailing a man for four hours because of his daughter’s drawing the definition of “further conversation” in our Brave New World?

  I’ve said for over 30 years, that if America doesn’t stop murdering her innocent unborn babies, then Americans will lose their freedom. It’s a litmus test which will determine what we deserve.

• Citizens Shoot Down Animal Rights Group’s Surveillance Drone

  That’s a great idea for any unauthorized drones. Great practice for duck hunting season. If there aren’t any laws on the books which would prohibit unauthorized drones over private property, there needs to be.

• ‘There Is No Truth Except Allah’: Colorado Student Quits High School Choir Over Islamic Song

  JMCCLENA…no anti-Beck bias there, eh? Calling your ideological opponents derisive names. Really? Now is that necessary? I have a rule — those indulging in name calling and other ad homs automatically lose the debate.

  Having said that, your post makes the “Beckbot” point. The outrage of conservatives, Christian or no, is precisely because freedom of expression and worship has been so resoundingly prohibited in so many other “voluntary, after-school ” activities for so very long — you know, activities in which “Students are not required to participate, and receive no academic credit for doing so” when that religious expression is Christian — for well over 30 years!! The hypocrisy of those with an anti-Christian bias is obvious to everyone except those possessing said bias.

  I watched the video. Watching the Jinjaweed galloping through the desert, probably on their way to their next appointment to annihilate another hapless Sudanese village gave me the shivers. The whole video seemed a message of “Islamic Supremacy” came through loud and clear when the world was depicted as being engulfed in torrential flames.

  In the interest of “multi-cultural” curiosity and exploration, perhaps school choirs might also sing some cute songs that were popular with the Hitler youth, no?

• Penn Jillette Presents: ‘An Atheist’s Guide to the 2012 Election’

  Penn, you need to study the Bible under the guidance of a rabbi, preferably an Orthodox rabbi. They can help you make sense of those more difficult passages. For example, I was recently disabused of the notion of G-d asking Abraham to sacrifice Isaac. Thank you R’ Lapin…his book “Thou Shall Prosper” which is a great read.

  This idea that Abraham heard G-d ask him to sacrifice his only son is a misunderstanding of the Hebrew word used in that passage, which can mean either “elevate” or “make an offering”. In fact, Abraham also misunderstood, which is why G-d sent an angel in the nick of time to clear things up…and save Isaac. Human sacrifice is utter anathema to Judaism.

  Thus, if someone murders their child and says G-d told him to do it, we must conclude he misunderstand, and then throw him in the hoosgow.

• 8-Year-Old Inspires Protests After Radical Jews Call Her a ‘Whore,’ Spit on Her

  Biddle:

  Learn some Second Temple history.

  When Jesus says “scribes & pharisees” he is not referring to “pharisee party” who were much beloved by the people. In fact Hayim Maccoby, a scholar of the period, believes Jesus himself was a pharisee. The pharisee party was patriotic and looking forward to the liberation of their people from the yoke of Rome…who was actively involved in preventing the people from observing the Torah, much like what the Greeks had done under Antiochus Ephiphanes of Chanukah fame.

  The pharisees can be likened in some ways to the Tea Party in America. The “scribes & pharisees”, when mentioned together by Jesus were a group consisting of sadduccees and a small number of co-opted pharisees who had abandoned their fellow pharisees in favor of the good life. It was tough to be a true pharisee back then. They were often hunted, tortured and then murdered by their Roman overlords. In contrast, the “scribes & pharisees” were co-opted elitist leaders who had turned their back their people in favor of influence, profit and position. This group, sadduccees and the small number of corrupted pharisees who had joined the sadducean cause were on the take…very wealthy and not committed to either their duties to G-d or the Jewish people.

  And that is why Jesus had few good words to say to them. According to gospel accounts though, he did manage to dine with pharisees, most of whom were true. One needs to read with political nuances in mind.

  In reply to Watchyer6.

  People who claim the so-called “ultra-Orthodox” are the “Jewish Taliban” reveal their gaping ignorance of both. Those who would spit on a little girl and call her a “whore” do not represent Hareidi community a They are an aberration and do not receive approval from the community at large.

  I don’t think non-Jews in America realize just how pejorative a term this is in Israel. It was used no less than 11 times in this article. It has the same effect on me as nails across a chalkboard….I have to go fill my ears with something pleasant to drown out the effect now.

  We seem to always be painted with such a broad brush…I don’t think we will ever escape it.
