Maybe this is funny to you, but I don't think it's funny to the hundreds of people who devote their lives to living a certain way to honor God, and then, by no fault of their own, have it all compromised. But go ahead and laugh...

Have it "all" compromised? Do you really think that, through no fault of their own, their "lives" have been compromised because they ate a non-kosher sandwich? Let's dispense with the histrionics, shall we?

The key phrase here is 'by no fault of their own'. Their teaching is that it only dishonors God if they knowingly eat non-kosher food, so lighten up, nobody has been condemned to hell over this.

El Al officials denied the report, saying that they had relayed a message to all passengers about the issue.

Hildy, if the airline announced to all of the passengers that there was no Kosher food on board, then the passengers had the option to not eat. I doubt seriously that while they were in Budapest, they were able to observe all of the laws of Kashruth; however, even if they were, they didn't have to eat on the plane.

If my Jewish relatives (I was raised Jewish, but am no longer) come to my house and I tell them that I DON"T keep Kosher, it is their option to eat or not. If I tell them that I DO keep Kosher, but I don't, and they eat, the tsurris is on my head, not theirs

I thought FR was a conservative site. Is it a Christian only conservative site rather than an inclusive of all religions conservative site? This ridicule is uncalled for.

I agree that the post is antisemitic. It also led to the usual Roman, mythical Jews-have-to-obey-every-law-all-the-time-or-they'll-burn-hell comments. So I posted comment #3. Defamations of one religion and the other can go as far as we want to take them.

Hildy, I'm not often in agreement with you - but I agree, this was, at best, a post in poor taste.

I'm pretty sure God knows the difference between breaking a law deliberately and breaking it unwittingly, due to someone else's negligence. But I understand your concern.
