If God has a problem with non-orthodox Jews, he will take it up with them.

They're responsible for this terrible treachery and are supporting it openly without being ashamed, and now they are sticking their claws into the people residing in Zion and trying to dictate our lifestyle."

and a "chief" one to boot, I say to you go take a long walk of a short pier and and stop telling other people how to dress, worship and behave. Look after your own flock.

They do not live in a bubble. They do not push their "traditions" on anyone else (with minor exceptions by media whores who have a symbiotic relationship with media whore Haredim.) And while many of them eat pig and mix meat and dairy, at least they are TRYING. As for secular Israelis, they hate the reform. "either do it right or don;t do it at all" is the pervasive idea.

Refrom Jews who would like to be "recognized" as legitimate Jews are the most vocal in rejecting "Jewish Christianity." The Orthodox are ignorant of Reform Judaism (as are Reform Jews about their own movement) and it would not be hard to get to know one another. It would also be a positive experience I believe.

they have killed off millions of american jews and now look to go to israel to suck more blood. if you don't believe in god and don't pratice judaism, you don't need to make your own religion to match what you don't do and what you don't believe. does israel really need lesbian rabbis? they have a nearly unlimited amount of money to use to prey on naive israelis who don't know who these people really are. we need to educate israelis on who these people are and what they stand for since they try to hide it.

i think that a good thing to do would be to have ex-reform and conservative people from the US speak to people who go to these places and inform them about what reform and conservative are all about. people could stand outside reform and conservative temples and do anti-missionary work.

ur no better.

Would save us millions of dollars every year

...is that Reform and Conservative Jews, who make Aliyah to Israel, are happy to serve in the IDF, work in the communities, create businesses and jobs for other Israelis, and pay taxes. They are not interested in telling other Israelis how to live their lives. They are not a burden to the Israeli taxpayers. Of course the Haredi don't want progressive religious Jewish institutions in Israel because it show Israelis just how they are being duped by the Orthodox leaders in the Knesset. Wake up Israel before you turn into another Iran.

It is you Orthodox Jews who are trying to get non-Orthodox Jews killed! Israel was re-established to be a place of refuge for Jews regardless of their denomination. All anti-Semites from the Roman Catholic Church to Nazi Germany didn't care what kind of Jew you were, only that you were a Jew. And there are a lot of misconceptions about Jews and Judaism that originated from the Orthodox Jewish community. We're also not happy about the way you Orthodox Jews do circumcisions. Gross!

This is a perfect example of why so many of us resent the ulta-orthodox and the haridim. They refuse to accept "Live and let live". According to them everybody has to live one way only - their way. Just imagine if anyone tried to say that we must stop them from following their own way of life. They would riot and burn all the trash in Jerusalem.

is speaking like a muslim fundamentlaist whts this " a pure an holy nation". TThis is this type of person who make modern jews run away from all thee snake oil sellers that got too long their hands on our religion. I believe in God, not in the rabbis. God judge people for their good deeds, not according a list of do otr don't do arrange d by self styled "priests". The state of Israel should be secular nation. period

The body most responsible for secularism in Israel is the Rabinate itself. It has managed to alienate the non haredi world by substituting darchei no'am with politcal blackmail and extortion. If you want Jews in Israel to become more Jewish, stop coercing them. As a famous Jew once said, "Render unto Ceasar...."

The religious are the most disgusting control freaks in the country. Same comments as usual, they don't serve the army, they slob around all day and suck money out of the state. How DARE that demented Loser say such a thing!

The reform movement has created another religion through their fake conversions, they are not Jews! BTY polls show that the reformed movement is loosing numbers big time in America.

with elul starting, ask for forgiveness and reach out your hand to your palestinian brothers and sisters

Influencing galut... ...Constant nagging and not understanding that some communities are so destroyed that kosher food is a luxury (but still insisting on providing glatt and on astronomical prices)... Etc. Oh, well, some people are too good paid for their "job". Here is a law in making that only a members of the community will pay for their respective communities - Catholics will pay for priest's wages, Muslims for imam's, Jews for rabbi's... A secularization in its best, And I like it! Why should I pay imam's wage? Or Abu would pay for my rabbi's? Can you make it in Israel?

"thing is the plague of assimilation, which is eating up our PURE AND HOLY NATION????" Can somebody now tell me that Jews do not consider themselves being over all others - and that antisemitism is the logical conclusion to this attitude?

illusory but worthy for the pockets ...

Rabbi Amar wants a theocracy, he forgets that it was the secular who made modern Israel come to life, fought in the wars and built an economy and that economy feeds his people who would rather study than work. In fact it is the so called orthodox who don’t want to allow any other ideas only their own to exist, who except them think they are correct. Pushed to its extreme orthodoxy will put an end to modern Israel, perhaps this is what they want as the Messiah has not yet arrived.

Worth asking , I speak as a Sephardi/Mizrahi. I think you will find very few of us attracted to the Consertice,Reform , liberal etc movements, irrespective of the comments of the Marsorti movements spokesperson. Speaking generally, Sephardim seem to cover the entire spectrum from a totally secular person who might only keep Yom Kippur to the deeply observant and religious at the other end. But our Rabbis are Orthodox and so are our Synagogues and we expect them be and we respect them whatever our personal level is. ie we don't seem to sufferer from the division that plagues the Ashkenazi world. For that I am truly greatful and so very proud of us.

He's in your out and your staying out, ___ 's will. And by the way pay up. So it is written so be it done! SHHAAAA ZAAAAAM!

Any chance of clarifying the part about whacking out goim who theoretically get in some ultra orthodox persons way.. you know overheated imagination? hope so. The King's Torah, religious instruction? Or perhaps having to do with " bloodlines, hmmm exclusion.

It is a fact that to most Israelis religion is having less and less importance in their lives and they either support reformist policies or they just don't give a dam about religion one way or another. I came here 10 years ago and the country is defaintly more secular where religion has less importance today than it did then. If this continues the concept of a jewish state is going to die and Israel will become just another country where religion is something to be kept behind closed doors and there is a total seperation between state and all faiths. If that happens Israel has no reason to justifiably exist. It was created for the sole purpose of being a jewish state if its not that it has no reason to be here. The haredi might take to much of a hard line at times but the growing influence of reform orthodox judaism is slowly being driven out . Groups like Masorti don't even know what they stand for they are not even reform so they are a total waste of space.

I firmly believe one day Israel will become a sane country... What percentage of Israeli citizens care about a real peace treaty meeting? How can anyone comprehend what the hell is going on? The lunatics have the keys ( I'm probably one).

when you stoop as low as reform Jews do....you are wiped out and erased. so stop your bravado!

You may leave Israel anytime.
