- Is he making fun of it, or just disagreeing with it? If he's a Christian, or
- an atheist (or a Muslim, or a Buddhist, or a Hindu, or ...) then would it be
- such a big surprise that he disagrees with one of the tenets of Judaism??
-
- So where is this "fun" he's making of it? Where is the sarcasm, the satire,
- the irony, the farce? I see none. Just a pro-lifer, who is (presumably) non-
- Jewish, disagreeing with a pro-choicer, who is (presumably) Jewish. What do
- you see that I don't?
