Having once again come across an article where the democrats accused the White House of the democrat party’s favorite activity, playing games in a most dangerous fashion, I thought it was time to look into the somehow empowered democrats propensity of using their political energy weapons in the most domestic of fashions while they express horror at any actions their opposition party takes that appear to defend US from foreign enemies the democrats helped birth.

My effort paid off by providing an unexpected introduction to Nawal El- Saadawi and I consider it a blessing when I encounter a truth delivered like the arrival of the eye of a category five hurricane.

Nancy Pelosi’s hammer should be so powerful.

Other weekend reading provided enlightenment from a different direction by Burton L Visotzky who explained the emergence of “rabbinic Judaism”, a form of Judaism that emerged from the rubble of the Herodian Temple and in his words was “shaped and defined by rabbis” using vocal transmissions of what the rabbis called their “Oral Torah” that lead to a Judaism that replaced the Israelite Temple religion.

If one thought about it one might see the similarity in the way our Constitution took a mortal hit from the Patriot Act after the takedown of the World Trade Center and the ready adaptation of rabbinic Judaism after the Romans destroyed their temple in 70 CE; as Rabbi Visotzky put it, “In short, what is now called “Judaism” was invented in the matrix of Roman culture.”

What’s more of a concern for US is the recent proclamation about special status being provided Jews and the daily news media accounts of people arrested for verbally assaulting Jewish people.

You see, when the rabbis were developing the oral tradition they were also giving their own interpretation of Scripture, an effort intended to replace the Temple as the source of authority. While modern rabbis retain that authority they also are assuming the mantle the recent status of special provides and that adds a whiff of the infallibility the Roman/Jesuit pope is in the process of casting away.

While some may celebrate the likely end of the Roman Church’s reign, one important thought to remember is the Church foundation was always presented as based on the teachings of Jesus who made clear the difference between right and wrong and the origins and the consequences of each.

Rabbinical Judaism presents moral leadership as equivocating virtue without value. Regularly. An Outback society of no rules just rights. And that, my friend, just leads to a walk to the locker room
