From where I sit, it sure looks to me like some are allowed to share what they believe, regardless of what that is --- while others are not.
What is that, if not discrimination?
And, in this case specifically, anti-Semitism...?
I'm not a Jew, but I know anti-Semitism is alive and well, and even on the rise. Surely we've learned from history to not repeat it.
Why is it appropriate for those of other faiths to share freely, but for Jews to be censured?
Why even HAVE a faith-board if the tenents of various faiths are squelched...? What, precisely, is the fear?
Sigh... I may as well be standing alone in a room, asking myself rhetorical questions.
Shalom, Dena
