Reply To: Christie veto's the bill but the threat looms! what should we do??!!

People like The Chassidishe Gatesheader are dead wrong (in my opinion obviously)

Here is why. Question, why should we care about what they do if it does not effect us?

Answer, is DOES effect us.

Question, how?

Answer, its another step in the break down of the society which GREATLY effects JEWS. Before the sixties when pot, rock and roll etc. became the norm the world was a better place. People were normal and it effected us. Yes it did. Jews follow their surroundings (as do all people). So as the society gets worse so do Jews.

Also, do you think that there are no gays out there that just happen to be Jewish? No waaayyy…Yes way sir. And now THEY get to be legally married which is a horrible stain which we SHOULD care about.

And besides, is it not a chillul Hashem when the people of Hashem do not stand up for morality? Of course it is.

And comparing it to other sins is wrong because even though it is true that there are plenty of things that people do wrong, the ones that cause the basic structure of society to fall apart are more important to US. Because it effects US MOST.

Also, all people are commanded as one of the 7 mitzvos binei noach in this matter and like I said it effects us all. We are commanded to be a light unto the nations. And ignoring the issue and caring only about ourselves and not the betterment of the world stinks of a darkness unto the nations.

And the argument that who cares if they serve idols etc is stupid because we pray every day in aleinu that the world reject and throw away idols and false ideologies and only swear and know of Hashem. And we declare how we long for the day. If this issue does not bother you then there is no way that you long for the betterment of society. You are a classic example of “with the lips they honor me but their hearts are far from me”.

I rest my case.
