TRUMP'S SUPREME COURT PICK POLARIZES RELIGIOUS US JEWRY

No offense, but that comment is idiotic. There are three Jewish justices on the U.S. Supreme Court right now, and they are among the most reliably leftist/communist justices the court has ever had.

[NorthMountain]

“We look forward to engaging in the confirmation process to further evaluate Judge Gorsuch’s views on issues of core importance to the Reform Movement, including civil rights, separation of church and state, religious freedom, women’s rights, LGBTQ equality, and many more.”

Yeah, we know: To the leftists, everything comes down to racism, faggotry and abortion. Pound sand, you schmuck! Elections have consequences.

[Hacksaw]

The amazing ability of an ethnic group to demand everything be about them.

[NorthMountain]

Is there some unwritten rule that only Jews and Catholics can serve on the Supreme Court or something?

Unwritten? No ... it's right there in the 30th Amendment ... haven't you seen it? Try to keep up ...

[iowamark]

No, Hitler’s mother was not a Jew.

[BykrBayb]

although he has not personally issued any rulings on abortion from the bench.

and has tended in his rulings ... against abortion rights.

Which is it?

The Reform (and increasingly the Conservative Movement) are removing themselves from being part of the Jewish community. A large percentage of Jews have done the same in the past. Sadducees and related groups did the same, followed by Jewish Christians, the Karaites, followers of Shabbatai Tzvi, and followers of Jacob Frank. All represented a significant percentage of the Jews, but eventually disappeared from the Jewish community.

“Religious freedom is not a license to discriminate,” the statement read. “Unfortunately, President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee Judge Neil Gorsuch seems to believe otherwise.”

An absolute crock of nonsense. If you cannot discriminate, there is no freedom of association. Without freedom of association, organized religion becomes nearly impossible.

There should be no discrimination by the government, unless on merit; but private parties should be able to discriminate at will.

GOOD catch

Watching an all women conference...most saying that he's bad on women's rights. Of course they were referring to the Hobby Lobby Case.

Except the case eventually went to the USSC and THAT court upheld the lower court (Gorsuch) with a 5-4 ruling.

So any leaning to call him anti-women is a red herring.

[miss marmelstein]

Thanks, no pardons for taking these lies on. Now Hitler’s a Jew! I like FR for its support of Israel and its genuine lack of anti-Semitism but these ignorant posts take the cake!

[Campion]

No, she wasn't. Hitler's father had the unclear parentage; rumor had it that his mother (Hitler's grandmother) became pregnant with him while employed as a domestic by a Jewish family. The child was supposedly sired by their older teenage son.

Historians have looked at the evidence and concluded that that's probably not what happened, although Hitler may have believed it.

Hitler adored his mother, BTW, and loathed his father.

I though it said “jewelry” at first glance. Never Mind.

[rhoda_penmark]

Cause mine is all sewn into the hem of my garment. /s

[Wuli]

A local Rabbi I know, familiar with Gorsuch’s judicial record is pleased Gorsuch is nominated. Why do Leftist Jews claim to speak for Jews when all they are speaking for is their own political, not religious, bias.

Fascinating coincidence of a brand new article about this. -— There is a visible shift towards conservatism among American Jews. This author is a bit on the optimistic side, imho, in that the “progressives” aren’t out of business yet, not by a long shot. But still there’s a visible movement back to more traditionally Jewish/ Biblical values in many — linkee :

You are often amusing.

Nobody here takes you seriously, but few will challenge you because you are a “Tar Baby.”

I have no malice toward you.

[nopardons]

I like you too. :-)

[nopardons]

You're welcome.

It was a patently ridiculous, stupid, on purpose LIE, to ramp up a flame war, by a very well known troll here, who craves attention from me and others here, so that he can then claim that he is in some way superior to those whom he detests. Just take it from whence it came and move on.

[nopardons]

As you can plainly see, on this thread, YOU are the person whom posters are calling out, on your uneducated, erroneous, stupid posts.

OTOH, I am being lauded, thanked, and "liked".

You couldn't "take me on" and win, if armed with an earpiece and THE most intelligent people, all over the world, were telling you what to post. You harass and poke at me O( and others here ), for attention, ego, and dislike. But in doing that, all you succeed in doing, is annoying others ( no, not me, I just laugh AT you and your puerile antics )and turning yourself into an object of derision and someone to laugh at to boot.

Oh....and you're misusing the term "TAR BABY". Yet another miscalculation on your part. LOL
