I go to a Jewish school, we have 4/5 rabbi's who teach us for Jewish Studies lessons and are just there for general Jewish guidance. Most of the school are Orthodox Jews by birth, a few are Reform. This really doesn't matter though because most people aren't that observant. In Judaism if your mum is Jewish, you are Jewish.. simple as. However for my school although they prefer not to, they do allow people in who's father is Jewish, but there mother isn't (or if they converted after the birth). Anyway... so we're sat in assembly yesterday morning and one of the rabbi's gets up to speak. He starts going on about how terrible the world is - drugs/alcohol/skimpy clothes blah blah, not that bad. But then he goes "we lost 6 million in the holocaust, we have lost 12 million since... through inter-marriage" My mum is Jewish, so I am 100% Jewish. However, my dad converted when I was 7 so I have been repeatedly told by several Jewish studies teachers that I'm "not really Jewish" or that my way of doing things is "wrong". I can deal with that, but in a school where there are a hell of a lot of kids who are a result of inter-marriage there is no way he should be allowed to say that. He basically just said we might as well have been gassed and fucking cremated. I'm so sick of people like him, he shouldn't be a rabbi, a rabbi is a teacher and a guide, not a fucking idiot who just sets out to insult. I really feel like complaining about him, half the stuff he has said in other assemblies is so incredibly racist. We have non-Jewish teachers and I know for a fact they feel pretty offended when he gets up to speak. Its wrong and pretty disgusting. Should I talk to a teacher about it?

I went to a Lutheran school, but people of ANY religious origin could attend, not just the kids of the Lutheran members. Could you report him? Or maybe convince your mom to let you attend another school. I think she would understand. I'm in my last year, I'm not going to leave. He also made some pretty derogatory comments about gay people the other week. Like I know its against the Jewish religion and its what he believes. But there are gay people in the school and he shouldn't be allowed to just stand there are say they are sinners. He can believe it, but a school isn't the place to say that sort of thing. 2kewl4u2know Posted at 1:44 pm on Nov. 11, 2008 I honestly can't believe that matters.  I went to a Lutheran school, but people of ANY religious origin could attend, not just the kids of the Lutheran members.
