Look the fact of the matter is, many people watching these shows do not have anything against us they are simply playing on the puns of people who do. Which is what makes them so funny. In my house, a house full of jew’s lol we love South Park and Family Guy. Please learn how to lighten up, it is the same as some black people laughing at their higly used sterotypes and often protraying them for laugh’s among their own as well.

You’re a funny guy. You must work hard to abstain from pop culture. It’s very corrupting and debilitating. Shabat Shalom!

Sorry Margot. Wait. Was this a denominational issue? Why am I apologizing?

Alexk: Sorry man. I was reading Sons and Lovers by DH Lawrence and while he’s a tremendous writer, his languid pace and sometimes turgid prose necessitated some, frankly, mindless entertainment. That having been said, like Kyle in South Park, I learned something today. I learned that the effects of anti-Semitism are deep and pernicious. I also learned that while the guldene medineh is safe and welcoming, sometimes that safety comes at a price.

Now, oh my G_d, will someone please kill Kenny. You bastards!

Oh, Jewish identity battles. Will they ever end? Will people ever collectively love, accept, and be proud to be Jewish — whatever their denomination? Will there ever be peace in the Middle East? Will there ever be world peace? Oy, sometimes my thought process is just exhausting…

I always knew Lois had something Jewish about her.
Probably her sense of humor

More importantly Leia, I was being sarcastic about it being the right thing to do. Of course it’s easy for me to judge. Denise’s father was murdered by the Nazis. Denise risked life and limb working with the resistance. Given the opportunity to leave France for a fresh start in America, denying the heritage that was the cause of so much pain and suffering must have seemed like an acceptable price to pay. It’s one many Russian Jews paid as well – how many Russians have I met who told me they only found out they were Jewish relatively late in life. This is one of the more pernicious effects of anti-Semitism, one that gnaws away at our collective identity We see it in effect to this day – all those malicious and malevolent individuals and entities unjustly demonizing Israel and making Jews ashamed of their Judaism. So ashamed that they begin to adopt the ideas of their detractors as their own. Don’t get me wrong, Jews aren’t perfect. Neither is Israel. But… the venom aimed at us is not motivated by truth or justice. It is motivated by pure unadulterated hatred. I guess we should see that as a wake up call to help us be the best people we can be and to look for wisdom and inspiration from the values and ideals that have sustained us for 1000s of years.

Yikes. That was long. And not a single pop culture reference there either.

OM wait I just realized…maybe you were trying to be sarcastic about the thugs around every corner?…but that’s still true man. We be Jews, thugs love us.

wait…what?! Da..I mean Ck, love you, loved this article, until I got to the last paragraph…
I realize you needed a nice “tie it all together” kicker but “it was the right thing to do?!

No one can judge another person’s life choices
but aggrandizing the perpetration of “in the closet Judaism” is not something I would expect from Jewlicious
