Yeah, I know Franklin Graham and some moronic Christians have said about the same thing, and yes, it was just as stupid.

Rabbi David Twersky, leader of the Rachmastrivka Hasidic dynasty, says the recent tsunami in Japan, which has left thousands of people dead, was the result of the arrest of two yeshiva students by Japanese authorities after being convicted of smuggling drugs. “The Japanese don’t understand why they keep on receiving blow after blow, and it never ends. If they want it to stop, they must release the two guys jailed in their prison immediately, and then experience salvation,” the rabbi told his followers last week during a Purim celebration in Jerusalem. Haredi website Ladaat reported that the Rebbe asked for the names of the two jailed men and said a prayer for their immediate release. “Amen,” the audience responded. via Rabbi: Tsunami result of haredi arrests – Israel Jewish Scene, Ynetnews.

Yeah, and I also what I said. My comments were related to the auto industry; and had jack to do with the people. They were also made, before we really knew the scope of the disaster too. So, really, I should get a pass on that.

Anyhow, what pisses me off about this; every time some idiot of a religious stripe does silly stuff like this, it makes the Religious community like stupid. Trust me, we do not need any help in that area. Secular Liberals howl with laughter and some of them actually look at us with scorn and rightfully so; whenever someone in that community decides to open their mouth and remove all doubt as to the depth of their intelligence.

So, as a Christian and someone who find this sort of idiotic nonsense silly; I say the following:

To Rabbi David Twersky — Stick to reading your farking Torah dude, because yowling on about events like this and thinking that somehow you are a spokesman for the Lord God Jehovah is seriously making you look like a farking idiot. Not to mention bringing a reproach on the Jewish World Community, and seeing your people are not exactly the most loved people in the world anymore. The best you can do; is just shut the hell up.

….and yes, I would say the very same thing if it were a Catholic or other Christian Domination. As Petra band once said; Some of God’s Christians (and Yes, some Jews….) should be seen and not heard.

That is all.
