@IrMiklat@SchoolZiegler The level of unquestioning zionism in Jewish learning institutions is *the* #1 reason I did not apply to Ziegler. I cannot support a state with such horrific policies, nor any school that requires me to live there as part of rabbinic training. What can I not learn here?
1/@IrMiklat@SchoolZiegler I can learn Hebrew here. I can study texts here. Thanks to Sefaria, I can have Chevruta here w/int'l students. Dropping us in a country that actively oppresses its neighbors & residents in flagrant defiance of Torah and basic humanity is not what I want my Judaism to be.

1. This is the tv show not the comic books. I don't care what the books said; this is a literal multiverse and there can and should be differences between 2 mediums (visual vs visual+text).
1a. Some ppl don't like which changes are made. Cool, go make a thread about it.

Hello, fellow Yidden! Today we meet Curtis Johnson, aka "Izzy Avraham" @/IzzyAvraham, a Christian (believer in Jesus-as-messiah) who pretends to be Jewish.
He runs a website teaching Hebrew to (mostly) Christians who also want to cosplay Judaism. holylanguage.com/index.html

First, his backstory. And not the one he gives on his website.
