To drop or not to drop

The Reconstructionist movement is on the cusp of making a historic decision about whether to drop its longstanding ban against intermarried rabbinical school students.
...Supporters of the change argue that the ban hews to an outdated way of defining Jewish identity and community, and that eliminating the ban would reaffirm Reconstructionism’s commitment to progressivism and inclusivity. http://www.jewishjournal.com/lifestyle/article/reconstructionists_consider_dropping_ban_on_intermarried_rabbis

You remember the ad "You don't have to be Jewish to love Levy's"? If we are talking about inclusion, how about extending it to "You don't have to be Jewish to be Jewish."
Similarly, "You don't have to be American to run for U.S President."

  1. Reading these few above news items, one doesn't know whether to laugh or cry - either at the outright antisemitism or outright stupidity on the part of our enemies and from so-called Jews, who also are no less anti-semitic by trying to turn Torah upside down.
