Hail
You can put the “100% Kosher” sign back up now.

Hi. This is Prophet CK from the Temple of the Ephemeral Jews. Clearly even the Reform movement is too elitist about who it decides to allow into the exclusive private club of organised Jewry. Have they not heard the entreaties of leaders like Edgar Bronfman? Do they not care about continuity? That’s why at ck’s Temple of the Ephemeral Jews we believe in retroactive, unsolicited conversion. Hence you may note that we have already declared all of Finland to be Jewish. Similarly, in the hopes of ending the acrimony shown here, I now declare all red headed women to be Jewish.

*snap*

It’s done. Kathleen, who will now be known as Chaya Mushka, is Jewish and the ranks of the Jewish people have thus been significantly expanded. Heh… what Jewish continuity problem?

All hail the Prophet ck. I officiate at Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and weddings too.

moshekappoya’s comment is a fairly funny attempt to make us all laugh, folks. What’s with the serious answers?

Besides, would it be so bad if we were 98% kosher?

Laya, you need to brush up on Reform. The parent has to be Jewish. Where they differ from you is that they would accept a Jewish father as sufficient for inclusion in the Jewish people. Makes sense to me.

Having a Jewish step-parent doesn’t make someone Jewish in the Reform movement. Having A Jewish parent (mother or father) and being raised as a Jew makes a person Jewish in the reform movement. Perhaps if the step-parent adopted the person at a very, very young age and she was raised as a Jew…

Hypothetically–a person with a Jewish mother who was raised Catholic (the hypothetical father’s religion) might not be considered Jewish by the Reform Movement.

well, Kathleen happens to have a jewish step father, and happens to really like Jews, so according to Bronfman, possibly the reform movement, and certainly ck’s temple of the ephemeral Jews, she’s probably jewish anyway.

Besides, at least she’s not wearing a cross like Romy was, and no body said boo about that.

Moshekappoya: quite the opposite, it’s a great honor and good deed for the goyim to love HaShem and glorify his name by abiding by the Noachide Laws.

moshekappoya: she’s not a spokes-model. she doesn’t speak or represent jewlicious in any capacity at all. she’s just someone who modelled our shirt. how does that ridicule Jews, like myself, who love hashem? and is there any halachah that says that non-jews can’t love hashem? why am i even responding to this shtuss????

Yes. By perhaps implying that gentiles can love Hashem, we are ridiculing Jews that love Hashem. Because that makes some sort of logical sense.

Everything has a reason
I find it offensive that you have a shiksa wearing “I (heart) Hashem”. Are you trying to ridicule Jews that love Hashem???
You can use any spokes-model you want, but if you stick with Kathleen, get rid of the “100% Kosher” sign.

[...] Just trying to catch up on a few minor issues here. First of all, 95 comments (and counting) on the woman wearing the I Love Hashem T-Shirt? Some have taken umbrage with the current model Kathleen’s religion. Others simply miss Romy, the previous model. I promise we’re not done with Romy and here for your Romy fix is a pic of her wearing some random t-shirt that was sitting around in a corner. In any case, none of our design shenanigans seem to have hurt us much -we’re in first place for Group A Best Designed Blog at the JIBs, beating out some pretty stiff and talented competition. Speaking of the JIBs, after IsraellyCool Dave caught some nasty ass cheaters stuffing ballots, we suddenly found ourselves pretty well placed in other categories as well. Granted we may have had some help from some nice Jesus folks, but at least we didn’t cheat. [...]

Lets accept neither Romy nor Kathleen. Lets get a GENUINE JEWISH GIRL-HOTTY to pose.

Lets make a new category named ‘Goylicious’, and therein post Romy and Kathleen.

at least the old girl had a non-denominational name like Romy. Kathleen just makes me think the is wearing a cross under that shirt. not that i’f be looking under the shirt.
