How the Jew stole Christmas

Name: Anonymous 2008-12-23 17:09

Many Jewish kids I heard from were permitted to watch the Grinch every year, yet somehow nobody (including my parents) is able to explain why this is so. Nearly everyone who wrote to me explained that the Boris Karloff version of the Grinch was "a classic."

What surfaces is a universal (and discomfiting) sense that the Grinch is a fundamentally Jewish show because the Grinch himself is a fundamentally Jewish character. I got one e-mail that concluded, "Who is more of a Grinch than a grumpy old Jew?" And a Jew with a heart problem no less?

But why do Jewish parents want to be pushing this peculiarly self-loathing vision of the bitter old Jewish man on their kids? Do we drag our kids to see The Merchant of Venice? If anything, the Grinch-as-old-Jew notion... is the ultimate fantasy for a Jewish kid with a case of Santa/tree/carols envy―Christmas, canceled."

Learn Buddhism. The only solution.
Buddhism should not be categorised into religion.
It is a phylosophy superior to religion.
Whether you are Christians you practise Buddhism.
Buddhism does not deny God. It does not deny any gods at all.
After all it is not a question for Buddhism whether God exists or not.
Buddhism mentions gods indeed, which is just rhetoric when they teaches the ignorant like Christians the ideas of Buddhism, because without mentioning God you can hardly lead those who stubbornly believe in God.
The way Americans and Europeans practise Christianity is wrong and evil. We need to lead them to the right direction.
