(Save His Children) – Rabbis, Leaders, and all, are we serious about combating evil? One of the most effective ways to impede evil legislation nowadays is to expose it, where accurate, as bigoted.

One of the most virulent forms of antisemitism is encoding into “law” the ideology – or atheology – of Jew-baiting by virtue of fidelity to authentic Jewish values. Here it is, yet again, in NJ, yet again: same-sex “marriage,” yet again. It’s A5367/ S3416, seeking to leverage popular will to bolster the abomination that heretofore held sway in NJ by judicial fiat. They just can’t stop obsessing about it.

However, you wouldn’t know about the potentially fatal Jew-baiting facet of this legislation from the preponderance of the fundraising promotionals that abound in the lucrative anti-antisemitism industry. Why is that?

We all know that not all which is branded bigotry actually is. And not all bigotry is treated appropriately. THIS legislation is fundamentally antireligious hatred at its core, rendering our fidelity to Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13 anethema. The Torah requires us to see the act of sodomy as what we all know it is: an “abomination.” That means: absolutely disgusting.

Said looming legislation would elevate this abomination – in [popularly acknowledged] principle – to serve as the basis of its polar opposite: Marriage.

Consequently, those who reject that perversion would be branded as bigots, and deserving ostracism, if not outright persecution, ultimately. Accordingly, we who adhere to the Torah worldview would be targeted by increasingly persecutory legislation, especially in the arena of education, as has been the case in N.Y., after the Democratic wing of the BGTLQ Movement attained a trifecta in November 2018.

However, this mainstreamed bigotry is not being called out as such. Why the double standard? Is popular acceptability a whitewash for barbaric Jew-Hate? Is bashing Jews or others for their fidelity to Torah morality acceptable as long as the perpetrating Intolerance Criterion are Politically Correct?

Does fighting antireligious bigotry from the BGTLQ movement take a back seat, as Rosa Parks refused to do? Has the addiction to government largesse by some gatekeepers led to a pro-BGTLQ, “Stockholm Syndrome” attitude, seeking to cancel the non-compromising Orthodox opposition to the BGTLQ movement? From whence is this sickness, which makes the ostensibly ‘frum’ media and establishment animated about Torah-bashing leftists grandstanding over condemning swastika paintings, all the while said pro-BGTLQ officials are themselves advancing antireligious edicts that pose inestimably more of a danger, physically and spiritually?

A vote in the full NJ Assembly and Senate is expected Monday. It’s incumbent on each of us to ensure that everyone in NJ knows how pernicious any support of this anti-G-d, culture-killing, ludicrous License-to-Hate really is.

And we must ensure that the recidivist Assemblyman Gary Schaer (D, Passaic) votes against it, especially inasmuch as his fellow Passaic Assemblyman, Clinton Calabrese, is a prominent proponent thereof. (And if Schaer doesn’t, it’s important that it be known that his position diametrically diverges from the Torah approach, and from the desires and views of Orthodox communities.) THAT is something we could accomplish.
