82. Just so everybody knows, Orthodox Jews engage in a number of paternalistic practices
Edited on Wed Nov-19-08 04:15 PM by Hippo_Tron
Amongst them segregating men and women during worship and women are forced to go to a mikvah during their period. Orthodox Jews are indeed our version of the fundies. The only reason that they have voted more Democratic than Christian Fundies is that the religious wrong has been historically anti-semitic. But now that the religious wrong is masking its anti-semitism in order to recruit this new group of soldiers and Orthodox Jews are taking the bait.
