The controversial “Messianic rabbi” who joined Vice President Mike Pence to honor victims of the massacre in Pittsburgh during a Michigan rally was reportedly kicked out of his congregation for libel more than a decade ago.
Rabbi Loren Jacobs — who curiously invoked Jesus while delivering a prayer for the Jewish victims on Monday — was defrocked 15 years ago by the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations, according to NBC News.
“Loren Jacobs was stripped of his rabbinic ordination by the UMJC in 2003, after our judicial board found him guilty of libel,” a spokesperson for the congregation told the network.
Christian cosplayer was so shitty, his band of fellow shitty cosplayers kicked him out of their ranks. It’s so messed up it is almost funny.
Patrilineally (GENETICALLY, THROUGH HIS HUMAN FATHER) descended from King David.
So very definitively NOT Jesus.
“Messianic Jews” are not Jews. They are Christians who co-opt and appropriate our traditions for the purposes of anti-semitic assimiliation.
I don’t have anything against Christians, except those who tell me I should abandon my own beliefs, as if they are any less sacred to me as their belief in Christ is to them. If you are trying to undermine my faith, that is, in fact, anti-semetic, regardless of whether or not you want to “save my soul.” You’re not, and you won’t. All you’re doing is engaging in a centuries long bigotry marathon that has motivated violence against my people from the Pittsburgh attack to the Holocaust to the Spanish Inquisition. I don’t care how “righteous” you think you’re being. You are hideously misinformed. Jews for Jesus are anti-semitic farce.
The use of one of these people to comemorate the massacre of actual Jews within their House of Worship is nothing short of despicable.
Oh, and if anyone decides to try and argue these points with me: you get blocked. Period. No exceptions. We are being murdered.
As a reader, as a writer, and as a fan I can’t think of a single website that has given me more happiness than Archive of Our Own. Thank you so much to everyone who works so hard to make it such a wonderful place.
Yay! I’ve met my out of pocket max for the year! From here on out, insurance covers everything 100%. ~bounces~ I look forward to this every year. XD It’s always such a financial relief that for 2-3 months, we don’t have to worry about me and money, mainly for prescriptions.
It’s sad, but I get so excited about the same thing! XD
Same. Honestly, I should have it in June, but medical stuff is a trigger and so it got out off until… oh. I’ll right. I’ll get a month. 😦 next year I don’t have any surgeries gods willing, and we don’t have a deductible, so at least there is that.
the whole mutual thing is really overhyped on this site. sometimes interests don’t match up and that’s the only reason why there isn’t a mutual following. if you’re a regular in my inbox or my notifications, i have visited your blog before. if i didn’t want you around for any reason, you would be blocked. so yeah. you can spam my notes and/or talk with me (and possibly become my friend) even if i’m not following you back. no worries.
I don’t think this counts as dancing. Or even skipping really. It’s more of an exagerated waddle
So. Let me tell you about the day I took this video. It was the 1 year anniversary of my open heart surgery. It’s about a year old, and I’d say it’s pretty safe to say I’ve improved since then. In case you don’t agree, let’s take a look at some more at my exaggerated waddling.
Waddle.
Waddle waddle.
*rolls across the floor*
Clearly I am immobilized by my own mass.
Oh wait… that’s not it, is it? It sort of seems like the opposite. Almost as though the ability to dance is based on strength, effort and passion and not on being skinny. Strange concept I know, let’s see if you can wrap your tiny little mind around it.
not to mention she wasnt waddling at all.. That was clearly a jete, chasse, and assemble.. not waddling. ballet…
Yo. Professional ballerina speaking here.
Clearly she is performing a saute arabesque, chasse, step-step, assemble devant with arms in fifth.
And as a teacher too, I can’t find much technically wrong with it at all.
Which means not only is she a gifted dancer, she has a wonderful technical foundation that she is executing properly and with lovely mannerism.
Being a ballerina isn’t about how much you weigh. Give me this girl ANY day for a student or dancer to work with. Clearly she has the knowledge and the passion, which means she will be a joy to work with.
Also, for those of you criticizing, you clearly have NO idea how difficult it is to execute a develope ecarte derriere the way she is at the barre in one of her later photos. This takes YEARS of dedicated training, as well as extensive natural facility, such as turnout, which she clearly demonstrates here.
So maybe before you peons thinking you’re masters of ballet judge dancers based on weight, you should actually learn about ballet and technique. Because if you had, you’d recognize that this girl clearly has technique–unlike your basic asses.
