Nathan Diament, the Orthodox Union’s executive director of public policy, meantime, said Gorsuch’s rulings “show a jurisprudential approach that venerates religious conscience and pluralism in American society.”

FINALLY....with the 2nd to last paragraph they quote an ACTUAL Jew -- and he LOVES Gorsuch!

Why did we have to sit though the Marxist and atheist Democrat activists who pose as "Jews" for the media?

it is most of the “reform” Jews, yes

the orthodox or traditional Jews voted mostly I think for DJT (at least several neighborhoods I checked where orthodox Jews live voted for him).

most of the “reform” have adopted the god of ‘progressivism’ ———————
occasionally a traditional rabbi comes out and says they don’t seem very Jewish but then his fellows ask him to quiet down...that Jewish people have had historical difficulties when they’ve tried to say that some others might not be sufficiently faithful to Biblical teachings or values....
its a very very very long story I won’t bore you with but basically ... trying to enforce some sort of discipline has sometimes led to some pretty awful bad results for the Jewish people as a whole....so a lot of the rabbis try to just keep the peace

you see similar in the RC Church and some Protestant denominations where serious (and quite similar) problems...where there appear to be genuine schisms really.....with one wing going off into “progressivism” like Nancy Pelosi for example......... and the traditional RCC clergy does not reprove her..... also look at what;s happened in (of all places!) Calvinism (Presbyterianism especially) with the PCUSA acting like a socialst party cell and tradtional faithful being told they can’t even have their church buildings

it appears that all three groups...Protestant, Catholic, Jewish....have a serious divide....some are faithful to their traditional or Biblical teachings....and another wing of all 3 groups has gone off the leftward cliff

and nobody can figure out how to fix the schism or rupture or bridge the divide
...
imho, its a very sad situation..but at least there are still many faithful in all 3 ....the entire country hasn’t gone mad

Soros ... we agree...I think he is one of the most evil and certainly destructive people on Rock Three today.

if you read up on his history really is a Nazi, he actually helped the Nazis steal the property of Jews that were slaughtered in the gas chambers during ww2. AND he has said he has no regrets...

religiously he proclaims himself an atheist, of no faith whatsoever.

but since you can trace his family tree back to Jews, the result is that SOME folks will say...SEE, an evil Jew...and Jewish people everywhere will get blamed for what this one jerk does...................innocent people who have no way of stopping or even influencing SorosNazi, none at all.

this is just the way some people “think”

Now then, if Mossad or somebody could only.................

I don’t quite understand this...
‘he died more than a year ago’ line of BS.
Scalia died Feb 12, 2016

perhaps Jews(Jerusalem Post) are using a different calendar?

“..which was upheld the next year by the Supreme Court. “

You lost your point of contention right there.

According to Jewish law(?), if your mother is Jewish, you’re Jewish. If your dad is Jewish, you have to convert. That’s the Orthodox rule, and I assume most Jews were Orthodox at the time.

That’s why homosexuals don’t want the embassy moved to Jerusalem.

Never mind the Reform Jews’ comments. They do not represent the Jewish people. They worship secular material things far above their worship of the Divine. They know very little about the Jewish religion and basically hold it and its true worshipers in contempt. Half of them probably aren’t even Jews, being products of intermarriage with the father being the Jew in the equation.

I’ve read the majority in Israel will be Orthodox by 2030.

You forget that it was the elite Jews who created Bolshevism and communism and funded the killing of over 30 million Christians and the destruction of religion where Christianity was the most vibrant.

Hey Susie--visit Stormfront.com much? This sounds like a cut and paste right off their website.
