TNT Torah Novel Thoughts
...Oh, you're quite novel alright.
*cuckoo cuckoo cuckoo*
Who or what's a Mincha? Gotta look up The Crimson Ghost's "Benny", too....
Hold on.....
Okay.....
MINCHA: A Jewish group prayer service (I guess the bumper sticker was saying the equivalent of the N.T. 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 & 1 Timothy 2:11-12).
BENNY: Unpleasant, loud & obnoxious tourist or outsider from Northern New Jersey or New York (Used by Jersey Shore residents). According to The Crimson Ghost, Mr. Haredi The Bumper Sticker Goofball is from an Ultra-Orthodox neighborhood in Brooklyn.
I hear that these guys are trying to impose their values on New York as well. It's not enough that they have their own enclaves, kibbutzes, etc. Now, they want to impose their values on everyone else.
Same with other frummy cultures.
If your culture is super-opposed to the dominant culture, either be tolerant or segregate yourself. If you chose the latter, with your own little society, media, economy, etc. then that's fine by me. A win-win.
Whenever a....
* Hasidic/Haredi enclave/kibbutz...
* A NeoHippie/Anarchist/Off The Grid/etc. Commune...
* The town of Ave Maria, FL...
* Or good ol' Amish Country...etc....
...It's a decent alternative. You live you're life, I'll live mine. If we can't get along we'll stay separate.
Of course, in regards to stuff involving physical/sexual abuse of children or spouses, the dominant culture should still get involved. Beatings, rape & "honor"-killings are always a BIG NO-NO.
Is that too much to ask? Just grab a bunch of land and start your society!
