Modern Day Hellenists

On of the key parts of the Chanukah story is the liberation of the Jewish religion from the clutches of Hellenism.

As we know, the Greeks, unlike enemies past and present, had no designs on our lives but only our souls by means of our institutions and systems. They were intrigued by us, our society, our legal system, our monotheism and our devotion to this system. It annoyed them to no end that we would use an imperfect calendar, have a day of rest without entertainment and mutilate our personal temples, being our bodies.

How does this apply to our story on this blog?

We are blessed with a country that allows us the freedom to practice our religion in any form we wish. There are no restrictions on us since our religion, is compatible the laws of the United States which is based on Judeo-christian values.

Our modern day Jewish Hellenists are those who use the system of the USA to tear down the system of Judaism or tear down the systems of the USA, hiding behind supposed leniency of Halacha as it pertains to the non-Jew.

Both of these categories of individuals are Mechallel Sheim Shomayim by trying to make the world a better place for Yiddishkeit. Very similar to the Hellenists and their goals back in the time of Chanukah.

For example, there are the Satmar Chasidim who fight, only L'Sheim Shomayim, in the Courts of the United States instead of in the Botei Dinim as Halacha requires. There is no wiggle room here. These are people that are destroying our system of Yiddishkeit in the name of making it better.

I hope religious-ex, as she looks at the Chanukiah burning brightly in the window, realizes that she and her attorneys are modern day Hellenists. They run rampant over our halachic systems, on a mission to tear down the institutions of Judaism here in US, where we have the freedom to run our lives as Jews, in order to create what they think is a better world.

So religious-ex, did you sing Mah Oz Tzur? I'm sure you did.

Hypocrite.

based on your wifes behavior, had you not given her a get, her name could of been listed at:
mamzeralert.blogspot.com
this site appears to expose women who take their husband to court and forcibly extricate a GET which is Posul in Halacha. Maybe you can spread the word that no GET should be given till all financial matters are resolved.
