IF TEBOW WINS, FASCISM WINS? “Can Judaism Survive Tim Tebow?” I tried linking to the original article, but it seems to have disappeared from The Jewish Week website. So, here are some quotes: Into the middle of it all rides Tebow. Absolutely confident that God is on his side, he comes across as a humbler version of the biblical Joseph, who, in this week’s Torah portion, audaciously lays claim to being the Chosen One, and then goes out and proves it. Tebow’s sanctimonious God-talk has led even pious peers like Kurt Warner to suggest that he cool it. Joseph could … Continue reading The World Wide (Religious) Web for Thursday, December 15, 2011

REALLY??? “Time’s Person of the Year: ‘The Protester.’” Congratulations, Wall Street occupiers. You did it! You got yourselves named Time’s Person of the Year! Okay, so you had a little help from your fellow protesters, in Egypt, Tunisia, Russia, Yemen, Libya and some other places. And maybe those protesters have accomplished a little more than you have. A little? Has Occupy Wall Street really accomplished anything? And given the upsurge of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, one has to wonder whether Arab Springers have accomplished much either.

IMHO, AFA & LOWE’S SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES: “A New Lowe for Anti-Muslim Bigotry.” Sadly, a small group of anti-Islam bigots were able to hoodwink a major American retailer into thinking this innocuous show is some sort of stealth jihad on America. An insignificant fringe group called the Florida Family Association sent a letter to Lowe’s stating, “Clearly this program is attempting to manipulate Americans into ignoring the threat of jihad and to influence them to believe that being concerned about the jihad threat would somehow victimize these nice people in this show.” Their letter on the website goes … Continue reading The World Wide (Religious) Web for Tuesday, December 13, 2011
