It seems there are many religions have problems with pandemic guidelines.

Fundamentalist religion of any stripe is abhorrent, but it's a shame that you had to put it out there to deter the anti-Semites. Alas, such is the world we're living in today.

We seem to have lost our ability to make distinctions. The capacity for nuance is a vanishing art. One can loathe Judaism as a faith while deeply appreciating the Jewish ethnos. Similarly, one ought to be free to despise the Islamic faith without being labeled a racist Islamophobe.

Bigots would still call you antisemitic anyway. Joe Biden, lifelong Catholic, is being called godless right now.

I say let them gather all they want, and welcome them to do so with a Darwin award.

Zealots of all faiths should be shunned. Have you noticed that they are mainly confined to the Abrahamaic faiths?

If they want to gather in mass number for service, let them all get sick from covid19. Then they can get a darwin award.

The Hasidim broadly supported Trump in 2016. Most Conservative and Orthodox Jews support Republicans and behave in the same low information, psychotic and morally challenged way as evangelicals.

Steven Miller is Jewish.
Humans are pigs and they will devour one another if they lose respect for each other.
Some of us are good at accepting anything that’s harmless particularly if it’s none of our business.
We also see behaviors instead of skin color, but if I judged people by skin color I’d never be able to talk with another white person again, which would be sad, Jesus was a white person right?
I’m kidding, Jesus of every color is fiction.

Fanaticism has been the mark of this century so far.
I don’t know what I expected

I really don't care if I'm called anti-semitic, the hasidic communities in the northeast are freakin' dangerous.
It's not just New York, it's also New Jersey and Connecticut, as well.
They're claiming "religious exemption", and are intentionally spreading the virus well outside of their own communities.
They're being damned arrogant about it.

They are every bit as bad as evangelicals and muslim extremists.
I have ZERO respect for their beliefs and I condemn them for their actions.

Religious right are nuts

The article does say that the community is getting hit hard by the virus, gee, I can't imagine why. WTF

Religious fanatic nutters are everywhere.

I agree. Former Reform Jew here - head of Jewish by Culture.

They're no better than the evangelicals. They're jeopardizing public health (and their own) for their "freedom". Religious events and prayer meetings are not essential. I don't blame Jewish people for the actions of these lunatic Hasids. I blame them tho.

The Hasids are in some ways similar to xtion evangelicals - my way only and out of my way while I'm doing whatever I'm doing.
