The
Jews have offered many excuses as to why individuals and groups of every ethnic
background, every color of the skin and every religious persuasion that convert
to the Jewish politico-religious philosophy of life should be given treatment
so special, it amounts to travelers sojourning through life in a private
compartment aboard the planetary ship named Earth.
Aside
from considering the excuses offered by the Jews as being fake and rejecting
them, most of humanity, throughout time and space, has reacted badly to a
Jewish behavior that was clearly motivated by a way of living and a treatment
of others that ran afoul of every norm considered inalienable by human beings
everywhere on Earth and throughout time.
In
fact, humanity has looked with suspicion at the Jews who set themselves apart
from everyone else, choosing instead to live behind the walls of ghettos they
built for themselves in Europe centuries ago. More recently, humanity ran out
of patience with the Jews who constantly invent fake excuses as to why, in the
name of security, they steal Palestinian lands and build apartheid walls on
them; walls that push Palestinians out of their properties, and add to the
Jewish possession of stolen properties.
The
Jewish philosophy of life being the culprit that's keeping the Jews apart from
the rest of the human race, all kinds of theories have arisen as to why this is
happening. Some of the theories even touched on the possibility of bridging the
gap between the two sides, but no workable solution came of that effort. If
anything, the gap that might have been narrowing for a time, is starting to
widen again, threatening to unleash a period that presages the potential of
reviving old horrors of a kind no one wants to see again.
This
is why we should analyze every piece of new evidence that comes to the surface,
and renew the effort to understand the situation in the hope that this may lead
to bridging the gap between the two sides. To that end, the coronavirus may
have given us that chance this time. It came in the form of two articles, one
Jewish and one secular, in which the core of the subject at hand is treated
from two different angles.
One
article came under the title: “Two orthodox Jewish approaches to the
coronavirus,” and the subtitle: “The principle of living by religious laws but
not dying by them is integral to Jewish practice.” It was written by Devorah
Goldman, and published on March 28, 2020 in The Washington Times. The other
article came under the title: “Church and state can work together to ease
coronavirus tensions,” written by Jeremy Dys, and published on March 29, 2020
in The Washington Examiner.
Despite
all the verbiage that was used to treat the secondary and tertiary concerns
attached to the core of the main subject, what comes out clearly from the two
articles, is the intense preoccupation that pundits and ordinary people have
for the subject of separation between church and state. Here is what Devorah
Goldman has said in this regard:
“Saving
a life trumps any other religious act, no matter how sacred … If following a
commandment entails a risk of death, then, according to this principle, Jews
are enjoined to violate that commandment”.
And
here is what Jeremy Dys has said in that regard:
“Government
may not burden the free exercise of religion unless it has a compelling reason
for doing so. It must use the least burdensome approach that achieves that
interest. Temporary action to reduce the spread of a global pandemic is a
compelling reason, so long as the government treats religious gatherings with
other comparable gatherings … Church and state have an opportunity to work
together to reduce the impact of the virus on our communities while encouraging
calm and preserving liberty”.
This
is where you see the difference between the expansive modes of thinking
expressed by Jeremy Dys in the name of all human beings, compared to the narrow
modes of thinking expressed by Devorah Goldman in the name of Jews. Whereas
both agree that no law is so absolute you cannot disregard it if doing so will
save lives, Devorah Goldman said this much and went no further.
By
contrast, Jeremy Dys who espouses a secular point of view that is rooted in
Christianity, said that much as well, but went on to plead that government
treats religious gatherings the same way it treats all other gatherings. He
also took the opportunity to urge both the church and the state to work
together so as to reduce the impact of the virus on people, as well as preserve
liberty for the people.
All
in all, this alerts us to the reality that the problem plaguing Planet Earth
and has been for ages, is none other than the Jewish politico-religious
philosophy of life.
That
is, if the Jews were to reform their ways in reality and not in pretense, they
must reject what makes them Jews in the first place. But if they do that, we
don't know what other form of evil will replace them.
