Most Jews are just too educated and intelligent and know the Bible too well to be Creationists.

The second response to Klinghoffer's article:

"...But frum Jews have no doubt that life was purposefully designed by our Creator...."

C'mon, one of the many things that sets Jews apart from our christian friends is that Jews have doubt and encourage doubt. It is this skepticism that has kept us ahead of the game in educating our youth. If we don't continue to "preach" a skepticism to our children, we will surely perish.

Here we have in a nutshell the modern liberal Jew's understanding of Jewishness: the modern, skeptical, naturalistic reaction to chr*stian "faith" and biblicism. In other words, Judaism is defined by chr*stianity rather than by itself--a phenomenon I call "J*sus envy."

The modern world simply cannot get into its head that the Biblical Israelites of the Book of Joshua were Jews. Moderns read Joshua and see Cossacks, or medieval Spanish inquisitors, or Baptist Ku-Klux Klanners, but they don't see Jews.

As far as the modern world is concerned, the "Biblical Israelites" evolved into medieval Catholic bigots who in turn evolved into Southern Baptists. "Jews," on the other hand, seem to have popped up out of nowhere a mere two thousand years ago, killed J*sus, established the American Civil Liberties Union, received the first Nobel Physics Prize, and began writing the libretto to Die Dreigoschenoper.

So, attempting a scientific explanation puts one in league with Hitler, David Duke and the Stormfront whackjobs? This article is a complete, over the top, load of crap.

Wow..

[Alter Kaker]

99% of Jews accept evolution. This one Klinghoffer does not a trend make.

[Lurking Libertarian]

Klinghoffer's is very much a minority viewpoint among Jews; even the Orthodox Rabbinate has said that evolution does not contradict the Torah.

I've posted it so many times that I sound like a broken record...

If SOTF theory is REALLY what one holds, then all sorts of barbarism can be excused as for the benefit of the fittest and that morality is a weakness.

This article has excellent points substantiating this view as demonstrated by Darwin's own words and his support for the evil of others, with not one wit of hesitation.

thanks for posting it!

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Darwin argued that a purposeless, unguided process--natural selection operating on random genetic variation--explains the whole history of life's development.

Strawman in the 2nd paragraph.

At least these guys are getting to the point quickly.
