Avram, you are correct. Once is a discussion about the Gemara I told him that I personally know several sheddim and he laughed. However, I was not completely joking.

Yekke, I think it’s sad that his attitude is such that he believed it. I am especially stunned as he was serving in the army and must have known that the IDF rabbinate runs religious activities and must have seen the preparations for Pesach.
