i liked the part about twice a year jews feeling guilty about their children’s christmas envy, sending them to hebrew school and creating another cycle. that was right on.
but i think it’s weird that this was in the times. very weird. made me a bit uncomfortable.

uhm, he’s making fun of jewish american hannukah being celebrated basically as a copy of christmas – not making fun of christmas…
so when he says, christmas is the festival for kids who aren’t lucky enough to be jewish – that’s not meant to be serious.

i am Christian. I liked the openess towards Christian (or any) religion that is reflected in this story. It made me feel that in the future it will be possible to live in a world where it just does not matter of you are Jewish or Christian or Hindu or Buddhist or Muslim or Taoist or a Deist or Pantheist or whatever … I am in favour of just celebrating any religious holiday that is fun! Like this, we can celebrate almost all year round. I would love to find out what Hannukah is like. But so far I have not been able to make any Jewish friends who are willing to invite me. 🙂
