| | + | ::::The problem with NishantXavier's usage of "Pharisaic Judaism" is that he assumes everything bad about the liberal side of "Judaism" is attributable to "Pharisaism." I've told him multiple times before: liberalization of Judaism was an outgrowth of Hellenization supported by Sadducees, which the Pharisees stringently opposed. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>Rev. 22:13</sup>]]''''' Tuesday, 15:55, September 26, 2023 (EDT) |
| | Yes, normal Jews are like that, fairly tolerant. Left-wing Jewish organizations like the ADL, however, are another matter. From Conservapedia's page on them: "Its general stance on prayer in secular schools is that it is "unconstitutional."[2] The ADL also has a record of supporting gay rights, the separation of church and state,[3] hate crimes legislation, abortion and partial-birth abortion.[4] There is also evidence to suggest that the founders may have been Fabian socialists.[5]" This isn't Biblical Judaism they are practicing, it's Pharisaic Judaism, with an Anti-Christian Bent, and an attempt to subvert Christian and conservative values. That's the only issue here.
