Wiles returned to that theme on last nights program, where he read from an op-ed in the Israeli paper Haaretz written by Debra Nussbaum Cohen, in which she argued that Alabamas law is a threat to my religious freedom as a Jew because according to classical Jewish text and most rabbinic interpreters, a developing embryo or fetus is not an unborn child or person, but has the legal status of an appendage of the pregnant woman. It is part of her body, not a separate person, until the moment that a majority of a viable baby capable of independent life has been born.
Wiles, who is deeply anti-Semitic and dedicates many of his TruNews programs to railing against Israel and the Jews yet still regularly receives press credentials from the White House, blasted Cohens op-ed and boldly declared that Christians are going to take back America from the Jews and we are going to impose Christian rule.
We Christians are standing up and pushing out Zionism, Wiles said. Thats what were doing. Zionism brought the slaughter of 65 million babies to America and were going to end it and we are going to impose Christian rule in this country.
Why are you imposing Judaism on me? he asked. Because thats exactly whats been done in America since 1973 with Roe v. Wade. Judaism was imposed on me, on my Christian nation and we became a Jewish nation that kills babies. Thats against my Christian beliefs Judaism became the law of the land in America. Thats precisely what the courts have ruled. They have based their rulings on the Zohar, on the Talmud, and now we have Zionistic Talmudic law ruling this country and resulting in the death of millions of babies. And Ms. Cohen, we Christians are standing up and were telling you that were done with Zionism, were done with your values. We are going to impose Christian values in America again, whether you like it or not.
Wiles went on to declare that Jews have been able to impose their values on America because they controls the banks, the technology, and the media in this country, and have even been able to gain control over most Christian churches through bribery.

Go shove it up your ass, Rick. I believe we have this thing called "the first amendment" that prevents that sort of thing from happening.

Also, conflating Judaism with Zionism goes to show just how ridiculously ignorant Wiles is.

(34,139 posts)Aside from the absolute offensiveness of imposing one religion on our nation - which was partially founded on the idea of religious freedom - I object to bringing religion into a subject that should be a purely medical decision between a woman and her doctor. Religion is NOT a part of the laws of this country, or at least according to the Constitution should not be.
Picking between whether you want to follow the fundamentalist christian belliefs or Jewish beliefs or some other religious cults' beliefs should be irrelevant to the passage and application of laws.
THIS is why I do NOT believe in organized religion and will never be a part of any religion.

Madison also made a point that any believer of any religion should understand: that the government sanction of a religion was, in essence, a threat to religion. "Who does not see," he wrote, "that the same authority which can establish Christianity, in exclusion of all other Religions, may establish with the same ease any particular sect of Christians, in exclusion of all other Sects?" Madison was writing from his memory of Baptist ministers being arrested in his native Virginia.
