George Iverson let me say that to me this... the United States is where I was born, I now live, and consider my home, but Israel...Israel is my birthright granted by Ha-Shem for eternity. Now one thing to note.... if this melting glacier, rising sea level thingy has any merit.... The dead sea is the lowest place on earth... Now... as for that 2bit jerk David... let me just say I am sick to death of you cowardly defenders of your own inaction. I have had so many of you pot-bellied rebel flag waving drunken nit wits tell me... a vetern of service... things like that it makes me queasy in a too much lard in the pancakes this morning queasy. The one thing you learn from a position of strength is you can tolerated the weaker a lot easier... David you have repeatedly brought, you and your buddies, a foul blend to these forums and really I wish, if you're Jewish to learn to keep your mouth (typing fingers) shut for a change. If you aren't Jewish then just leave... you are offensive, insulting, and hateful towards Jews.

Family Guy is an adult show that takes a cynical and sarcastic approach to humor. If you don't understand it don't watch it. You have the choice right in your hand...the remote. This is an outrageous comedy skit by a talented if irreverent group of writers and actors. I laugh thinking about it... If you were offended by this intentionally outrageous and clearly evident spoof then you have lost your sense of humour and THAT could cause serious harm to your soul. There are quite a few times when I disagree with the flavor of the show but it is still a very funny way to take a different look at prejudice and downright stupid situations.

That is the absolute truth. ...the disappearance of the "secular and religiously liberal" American Jew is inevitable due to intermarriage, low birth rates and assimilation... Reform Judaism is destroying the Jewish community... and maybe the Jew too. I can understand wanting to live life to your own beat but, without community there is no real identity and without identity one tends to wander aimlessly through life. Are we really ready for this experiment of life to end for us? Outside influence on the gene pool is not only essential but also beneficial, yet letting go of the traditional identity of a people cause that people not to be. There is strength, purpose, and joy in the traditional unity of the Jewish community and that is what must be preserved if we are to remain an entity unto ourselves... The Jews.

And there are a lot of Jewish charities I don't give to simply because they do more good for the administrators then the needy. I strongly believe in charity Carole, but I am not going to watch greedy men use helpless people as an excuse to make a fat paycheck. Curse the man who gets rich off the backs of the poor.
