So any bets on when this group is going to claim that this ruling is ANTISEMITIC, and promoting hate against Jews. All religions seem to fall back on the trope that they are being persecuted by the other (in this case the secular laws).
And that's why it's not persecution, as much as they will claim. The religious affiliation of the group is irrelevant. Of course, they 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 disclose that information. But telling people that their donation is helping a child when it's really paying for a young adult's plane ticket and hotel stay is a long way from truth in advertising.
I would bet that Christians, Muslims, and atheists in this country would have no real issues donating to an Orthodox Jewish organization that was 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 helping needy children.
Can you say, "Bate and switch," boys and girls? I KNEW that you could!
Seems as though evangelical Christianity isn't the only outfit willing to indulge in mendacity or hidden agendas to promote their cause. What burns my toast is that, in THIS case, the backers of Kars 4 Kids are exploiting KIDS, with the ultimate goal of indoctrinating them into Orthodox Jewry.
Problem is, though: kids are SMART. If they don't pick up on this scam from Hemant's article here, they'll pick it up from some other source and spread the news around ... whereupon Kars 4 Kids becomes cause non grata in a hurry.
It's worse than meshuga. It's a bunch of schmendricks, trying to put one over on innocent (or maybe NOT SO INNOCENT) kids. Those schlemiels screwed up, though, because the word is in the air now.
Oh, good- now that I know it's a grift, I have a reason beyond mere annoyance to hate the undying fuck out of that stupid ad jingle. Didn't really need a reason, and I haven't even had to hear it in the years since I cleansed my life of in-home advertising, but it's a nice bonus I guess.
I'm going to quibble with one facet of this commentary even though I agree with 99 plus percent. I certainly agree this group needs to be shut down in that they are as dishonest as about any other organized religion, particularly those more fundamentalist members
But this still isn't the same as Christian group proselyization. Jews do not seek converts in the traditional sense. Instead, the Orthodox groups prey on secular and otherwise unorthodox Jews trying to make us 'more Jewish.' That's largely the entire purpose of the Lubavitch sect who can, frankly, be quite annoying and extremely self-indulgent
If Orthodox Jewish groups are making massive amounts of money off of Kars4Kids for the purpose of being even more annoying to include Orthodox Jewish matchmaking, that is grotesqually improper and, again, must be shut down.
But one thing they're not doing is trying to impose their belief on others of different beliefs and religions. They're not demanding everybody else follow their lead from medical to spiritual. Their targets are other Jews. They're improperly feeding themselves while being massive pains in the ass to Jews who do not follow their particular degree of mythology and fantasy
A religion being deceitful and teaching children to lie.
My shocked face: -_-
Just evidence that the grift isn't unique to Christianity.
But statistically, scams seem to be more the "dominion" of the Abrahamic faiths.
(Ignoring malls and airports, of course....)
Religions are the world’s oldest and most widespread scam ever created by humans!
They should remove it and then please remove all the christian bulllshit that invades the public square.

The press release was probably ready to go before the ruling was made.
You can justify anything in the name of religion. It has been ever thus.

Abrahamic cults never seek to help society, just to grift and groom.
Religion: The first and eternal grift.

Moral? Don't lie to kids. You'll wish you hadn't.
Oy vey! This is meshuga!

And their little scheme will become scheiße.

Abrahamic thieves and scumbags showing exactly what they are.

It's simply deceitful.
Religion in a nutshell.
Not always.
Always.
Always about gaining/keeping power and control over others, everything else is window dressing!🤨
