Quote " pah-leas you people are pathetic! go get a job and join the civilised society " , ,

A civilised society such as Liberal Israel allows freedom of religion also to its jewish citizens : rituals , prayers , circumcision , bar/bat mitvah , Marriage Laws in accordance with Moses and Israel religion , kosher food , Shabaths , Holidays , hanuka , purim ect...and much more , , ,

and yet Israel the State very jealously keep , protect and preserve the separation of Powers , State and Religion , freedom of religion , and many other liberties , westerners and especially US citizens feel at home in Israel , ,

Quote " Hello its 2007 this is barbaric " , ,

unless you`re a sworn vegetarian , wich is your choice to be respected ,and if not you surely then like good restaurants ,who doesn`t like a nice grilled beef steak , some chicken wings , some seafood , and how about the nice smell of barbecue , you should know Israel food is very much Int`ly rated and appreciated , ,

all this cuisine , food and smells is good business , same goes with the offerings to the G`D of the jews , its good money on top of the judaic meanings , each jew and its offering capacity , one may bring some grains or grape-fruits , the other a chicken or a lamb , an other a bull or some money , , every offer is welcomed , ,

the rituals are nice show , based on the G`D of the Jews , its commandements and Laws regarding sacrifices / offerings , it say that it also please the G`D of the Jews and the Jewish soul , the sense , eyes , ears , if only a digital camera could also catch the nice smells ,

If all the above , offerings and rituals are barbaric as you say , then what would you call hunting deer season , or fishing season , or cattle business , or restaurants business or chinese that eat everything that moves , flys and crawls , or liberal societies allowing freedom of religion , or the Turkey of Thanksgiving holiday ect...

It may be 2007 but G`D Laws given to the Jews are eternal , , ,

whether or not you`re religious or traditional or atheist , or scientologue , your beliefs are respected and the same is expected from you in Israel liberal society , , ,
