Newdow is NOT an athiest. He is a PRACTICING Jew according to his child's mother per ED on Fox & Friends according to Rita Cosby's report interviewing Newdow's daughter's mother(they have never been married). He has always been "interested" in contitutional law is the reason given for taking this to court. Isn't THAT SPECIAL?!
How about 20 years behind bars?
He could not have been more clear as to what he is saying. Then go look at his posts and his disdain for Jews calling themselves "The Chosen" people and how that moniker somehow makes them targets.
The "Chosen People" Theory
Knowledge of Jewish "choseness" is undeniably widespread. Several years ago, the University of California conducted a study of anti-Semitism. Non-Jewish Americans were presented with eighteen unfavorable statements about Jews, and asked whether they believed any of them. Fifty-nine per cent responded that they believed the Jews consider themselves to be G-d’s chosen people. This was by far the most widely-held belief among those surveyed.
In order to test whether this belief is indeed a legitimate cause of anti-Semitism – or whether it is merely another excuse – let us see what happens when Jews drop the claim that they are chosen. If Jewish "choseness" is in fact the cause of anti-Semitism, then hatred against the Jews should disappear. However, if Jewish "choseness" is just an excuse for anti-Semitism, then we should detect no improvement.
For our test case we need to find an era in history when Jews collectively rejected their "choseness" and were assimilated by their host nation. The choice is obvious – Germany at the turn of the century.
Germany -- the Jewish Motherland
Late in the nineteenth century, the Jews living in Germany and Austria denied that they were in any way "chosen." In fact, they believed that the non-Jews among whom they lived were the true chosen people. "Berlin is our Jerusalem!" they loudly proclaimed. Gentile society was their social environment of choice, and Germany was their beloved motherland.
Did anti-Semitism disappear? Well, we all know the answer to that question.
Following their espousal of their host nation’s culture, German and Austrian Jews experienced the most vicious outpouring of anti-Jewish hatred in recent history. Precisely when and where Jews rejected their claim to "chosenness," they suffered the most virulent forms of anti-Semitism.
Clearly, the "Chosen People" Theory does not pass this litmus test. Let’s see how it responds to others.
I do agree with you about the state of music these days - flipping around the channels earlier netted me a minute of a recent Britney Spears video where she writhed around with a bunch of dancers, simulating orgy. And at the same time, Nickelodeon promotes this crap to 5 year olds.
And of course you know that "quote" is a decades-used antisemitic rule of thumb! The location and particulars change but the theme remains the same. No doubt one could find something quite similar in Mein Kampf. By the way, when you come up with something that somehow suggests that the Jews are even remotely responsible for the degradation of society, please be sure to flag me. I'm sure there are a few escaped Nazis in Buenos Aires that would be interested in your take on it too. They'd probably dust of their copies of Protocols just for you!
Works for me.
For biblical example - Ruth was not Jewish, she was a Gentile. She married a Jew, Boaz (he was from the family of Elimelech, of the tribe of Judah), and their son Obed was considered of the tribe of Judah, was he not? He had to have been, because he was David's grandfather.
Thoughts?
I think this on is based on logic. One can conclusively say who the mother of a child is, but not the father. The mother is always at the birth. Before DNA and paternity testing, the only unquestioned lineage to rely on was the mothers.
hahahah yea right, people like this guy have absolutely no shame - no concern for the rights of others, they could care less as long as they get exactly what they want - even if it means using a child and commiting perjury to do it. Man, sounds like our former Plunderer and Chief doesn't it?
I have seen those protocols.
As far as I am concerned they are interesting. All I know is that Barry Bonds has a slugging pct., a great on base pct,. and he thinks there is a reason to believe that some organizations in this Republic are wanting!! He is unable to speak on these matters, but, he really dislikes the sport's reporters!
