Sen. Joe Lieberman embraces 'the gift of the Sabbath'

Did you know if Al Gore won the 2000 2004 election, Joe Lieberman would be currently our President. Liberman would of been the 1st jew as a Vice-President and the 1st jew to be our President.

What Joe Lieberman says has great value for our society. I truly think that if everyone truly observed a "day of rest," American society would be a better place.

@Detectivefiction "What Joe Lieberman says has great value for our society." are you kidding me? The guy wants a Chinese style internet kill switch, voted yes for NDAA, is sponsoring expatriation act, and much more. He is against the very foundation of the USA!

Religion is bullshit.

[chamuda610]

@todanp Agreed, but that does not excuse the bigoted, anti-Semitic comments left by various individuals on the internet. I'm "Jewish" by culture and ethnicity, not religion necessarily.

@chamuda610

I have nothing against the Jewish ethnicity or religious jews. Maybe a little the orthodox and fundamentalists of every religion in the world, but as a whole I don't dislike religious people. All I said was, "Religion is bullshit". Everyone in here is so quick to draw conclusions.

[Detectivefiction]

@todanp And what about a weekly day of rest -- a day when we stop rushing around and just "be"? Is that, too, "bullshit," as you so charmingly put it?

One can listen to what Mr. Lieberman says and see the value of the Sabbath as he defines it without necessarily believing in religion.

@Detectivefiction

Days of rest have nothing to with a set of beliefs and books. I don't see what you're getting at?

[Detectivefiction]

@todanp I don't see what YOU'RE getting at with your first reply. Mr. Lieberman's book is about his own Sabbath experience, but even more it's about how society today (not just religious Jews) is in need of the sort of rest and reflection the Sabbath provides. He's not trying to push his "beliefs and books" on anyone; he's saying that the institution of the Sabbath could be the antidote for many of society's ills. Why don't you make an intelligent comment on this rather than cursing?

@chamuda610

Stupid Jew.

Hitler should have finished the job. America and the World would have been better off.

[chamuda610]

@mkadams99 Stupid bigot. Thanks for making my point for me. Shabbat Shalom, my friend.

[chamuda610]

@mkadams99 Again, I can only say that this is "goyishe kop." You don't know what that means? Aw, too bad. I don't cater to anti-Semites.
