To be honest - it sounds more like you are upset that people aren't bashing Jews. Would you be happier if there were more Jewish bashing posts? That seems to be what you are getting at. I can understand being upset because you feel that your religion is getting a bad rap - but I don't understand the seeming resentment that other religions aren't getting a bad rap as well. It sounds sort of like - Why hate Christians? You should really hate the Jews!
There are very few menorahs on public property? You don't know what you're talking about. Stop trying to infer my feelings. I don't want anyone to be bashed but I find the nature of this bashing interesting. Basically, it's becomonto to bash Christianity these days and it's ridiculous. And by the way, the orthodox Jews by me are actively lobbying against gay marriage. You need to get your facts straight.

Judaism has a spectrum of Jews and the orthodox are on the conservative end so yes they probably don't want gay marriage. They don't speak for all Jews just their group.

Just as not all Christians and denominations are against gay marriage. Despite that it's the Christians who are attacked. Go figure.

I see you going to pull the old "poor little Christian"card, please don't insult me with that little charade. Personally I don't care what your religious belief is, but I do care when you start singling out individuals for your hatred and this is exactly what this thread has degraded itself to.

Geez Louise! I think you need a time out! It doesn't really do anyone any good to just go off on everyone! Maybe an anger management class would be helpful.
Honestly, the more you insult people and are just plain mean - the less people will actually listen to what you are saying. If you really want to get people to listen - you need to change your tactics. Nobody listens to someone throwing a tempter tantrum or someone slinging out the insults right and left.
A temper tantrum because I told you to get your facts straight? Yikes... Moving on...


By the way, I stand by my "get your facts straight" statement.

In all honestly - the number of Orthodox Jews fighting against gay marriage probably does not even come close to the number of Christians fighting against it. It's like comparing an apple to an orchard. I'm against anyone fight against gay marriage - but the larger group is going to be the more vocal group and therefore the group more likely to face most of the backlash.
