THE POWERFUL JEWISH BRAIN I've been a bit hesitant to watch that new TV show 'Are You As Smart As A Fifth Grader?' I have a 4th Grader and sometimes the homework and questions leave me stumped. I have forgotten all that useless stuff I learned back then - but, pssst... don't tell my kids its useless, O.K.? Now this article below states: “We’re really in this period of Judophilia right now,” Ostrer said. “Clearly in the mainstream western Christian world, Christian academics and intellectuals like and admire Jews a lot.” They do? Really? Then why all the hate speech against Israel, why the lack of political correctness about Jews or Jew-bashing? Do they hate us because we are smarter? There's a Jew on the Mets this year (YAY!) who's said he will donate monies to the UJA for every run he bats in. Does that make the Mets bad? Will they get targeted now? Or are the Mets getting smarter? Is the power of the Jewish brain in the matzah? Maybe its the kreplach?...
