Either discussions of the validity of the Torah and Judaism belong in this newsgroup or they don't. If they do, observant Jews should expect to have their basic assumptions attacked. If not, most (if not all) of Rosen's postings about Judaism do not belong in this newsgroup. As for me, I vote for Rosen. For example, where else except in this newsgroup should someone attack Samet's (or the Torah's) basic assumtions about homosexuality? -- Bill Tanenbaum - AT&T Bell Labs - Naperville IL ihnp4!ihlpg!tan
