(in this case, it is *not* so clear, except for it being several years earlier.)<br /><br />hunting this down was not difficult, btw. since this is unfortunately so prevalent, it is the first step. it took me literally 5 seconds. i took some text from the story, put "church" in place of synagogue, and searched Google, and the many occurrences of this came up. that is "all the trouble"?<br /><br />something to keep in mind for future email forwards, perhaps.<br />this was wasn't too bad.joshwaxmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149022516101476797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186734097245460670.post-31717435897021054022009-08-26T09:45:42.748+03:002009-08-26T09:45:42.748+03:00You mean like the one about the shammas that could...You mean like the one about the shammas that couldn't read?<br /><br />Of course, I would think the obvious - they must have stolen it from us! After all, most of what they have, even the Bible they talk about, was certainly stolen from us.<br /><br />My question is why do you go through all the trouble to hunt these things down (or are you a subsciber to this site)?<br /><br />Thanks, anyway. <br /><br />Chezkel<br /><br />P.S. This makes me think about the story of the woman who was toiveling to be a giyores. She asked the head Dayan if it's okay for her not to put her head all the way in because this is a special occasion for her and she just got her hair done. The dayan answered,"If you don't want to put your head under that's okay, but then you're still going to have a goyishe kup!"Yechezkel Hirshmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18417734718880643428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7186734097245460670.post-74723018759629494092009-08-26T05:43:44.408+03:002009-08-26T05:43:44.408+03:00and what do you think of this joke once you consid...and what do you think of this joke once you consider the possibility, or likelihood that this was written about attending church and engaging in Bible study?<br /><br />http://living4jesus.net/dynamic/fun.htm<br /><br />kt,<br />joshjoshwaxmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149022516101476797noreply@blogger.com
