Aha, so some Jewish worshipers are better than others? Ok, fine.

Actually, I know this because of a friendship I had in the 70's. I was treated very badly by his roommate because I of course was not Jewish. I even caused him to sin one day, because my friend called me on the phone on the Sabbath and his voice was carried over the phone line to my ear. He began beating my friend because I caused him to sin simply by being at the other end of a phone call which I did not originate.

However, I don't think such beliefs should be the basis for law in this country.

", so some Jewish worshipers are better than others? Ok, fine."

No, some follow the Law as written, and others do not.

"I was treated very badly by his roommate because I of course was not Jewish."

That is horrible and a violation of the Law. A Jew is no better than any other person.

"I even caused him to sin one day, because my friend called me on the phone on the Sabbath and his voice was carried over the phone line to my ear. He began beating my friend because I caused him to sin simply by being at the other end of a phone call which I did not originate."

He sounds like an idiot who majored in the minor areas of the Law.
