Hmmn, still hyperventilating, I note. Tranquility helps one to recognize both irony and satire, even when a FReeper assumes it was not necessary.

But, since you are attacking me, note the original line I typed: “”How else could the ‘glat kosher crowd’ order in Kosher Spare Ribs if the Won hadn’t invented and supplied the shabbos compliant phone?”

For those unfamiliar with the term “glat kosher” it means exceeding strict observation of the kosher laws.

Now, consider that just perhaps my line might have been satire. Try hard.

That didn't hurt all that much, did it?

Strident attacks, particularly ad hominum arguments, are an indication of your arrival at the position of a lawyer who can not argue facts or law - and therefore pounds on the table.

As for your “IT'S IN YOUR BLOOD; according to the “Jews caused marxism” knuckle-draggers, if YOU are Jewish, you are JUST AS RESPONSIBLE as those actual marxist jinos.”

Have you considered the sad reality of the Plymouth Colony having been established as a collective? That bit of socialism is not an instance of “IT'S IN YOUR BLOOD” as you screamed. But it is in the history books, particularly William Bradford's History of the Plymouth Colony, where he states “This community” was nearly our undoing” i reference to the ‘Starving Winter’.

He used ‘community’ because the more modern usage “communism” had not yet be penned.

Lastly, have you considered that if G*d gave Man Free Will, and if G*d is omnipotent, omniscent, etc - then he knew the fate of Jesus. Indeed, had Jesus not been killed, it is quite possible one of the central beliefs of Christianity would not exist.

Not being privy to the plans of G*d, I must restrict myself to study of the Law - as any good Jewish man should.

The intersection of Judeo-Christian Law and the American experiment in a Constitutionally limited Republic of self regulating citizens is my main interest.

In that light, perhaps my calling out the faulty premises of socialism when practiced by our fellow Jews has become personalized. Such is neither my intent nor historically accurate.

To the best of my knowledge, Jews were not members of the Plymouth Colony - yet is was a socialist experiment.

Interestingly, the Pilgrims had socialism forced on them by their financial backers so that their percentage of profits from the Colony could be more easily collected.

Why the large majority of American Jews persist in their infatuation with the faulty premise of socialism escapes me.

Might you have an answer?
