The original of this message is not Matthew's. I am using this quote
from his message because it was the first time I saw it.
The contents of this message are not musical, but Jewish. They only
appear in this list because they are a response to something that
appeared here before.

(The following is a collection of mean and harsh words. They are not
directed at any one in particular, it is just an expression of my anger
towards what I consider to be a misguided religious statement)
Where did you get the idea that the only valid conversion is an orthodox
conversion? Do you even know the requirements for a Halakhic
conversion? And what if this is a conversion done by an orthodox Rabbi
graduated from the Yeshiva University, would that be acceptable to
Chabad? Try no for this last question.
(end of the angry words)
Judaism is a religion with a myryad of facets and we have enough of
mutual animosity. The reason why the Second Temple was destroyed was
Sinat Chinam, hatred between correligionaires. We don't have a Temple
anymore because the religion has changed and evolved. Should we continue
with this Sin'at Chinam, what will be destroyed now? Our people?
