1. Are "we" comparing Judaism to Hitler?

2. This article was about Israel?

The C of E that recently voted against ordaining women as bishops? Let them continue fading into oblivion, I say. The buildings can be preserved by putting them to other uses, preferably pubs, where we could adopt the Irish term 'curate' for an assistant barman.

The only religions that <i>haven't</i> been warring on women since Genesis are the ones that weren't around then ... and for the most part, they've all gotten around to it since.

At least they don't try to kill you if you dare to write down Y-H's name. But aside from the substantial absence of homicidal tendencies (admittedly, no small thing), there isn't a whole lot of difference.

I never would have thought to ask, "You know who else liked ditties about housekeeping?"

I'm also a bit surprised that it rhymes in English. Translators of the <i>Deutsche Dichter</i> usually don't even try.

Happy to learn of my error!

Geez, how about a spoiler alert?

Also therefore asterisk-worthy, perhaps.

Since the faith was founded in Iran, perhaps we can begin bombing its holy places soon to increase their appetite for manly, monotheistic jihad.

The new Pontiff will fix all this. It'll be different this time, he promises.

List of religions that do not hold oppression of women as their central tenet:

1. Unitarianism*

End of list. ____________________ *Yeah, they probably do too, but there aren't enough of them around to ask. Kind of like the Shakers.
