Re: "Ask the Sheeny" (a Q&A resource thread)

My question for the Jooish neighbor:

What's your favourite book, sir?

I'm rather lost...

Ah, young man! Now you're a colt of another color!
Polite, Repectful of your Superiors! Confessional:

"I'm rather lost..."

Shall you now find Jesus? Jesus has found you.
I am now more likely relay your question to Lippy.

Thank you, you gentle lamb of parished dorothyism,

Peter

I just phoned Lips. He did not hesitate:

"I read it as a child in Germany. My lone American relation sent it to me in in 1938 when I was just ten.
It was the first book I read in English. I knew then I wanted America, for my very life's sake."

Peter speaking now. I had to google the title.
Here's what I find:

This book is dedicated in all seriousness to rabbis, priests and ministers, in the hope that it may bring them to realize the fraud they are perpetrating by preaching the Bible as the Word of God, and as a moral ant intellectual guide for or the human race.

SOMETHING LIKE THAT IS JUST WHAT I WOULD EXPECT FROM A GODDAMN JOO! I see we need a cross-burning!

Re: "Ask the Sheeny" (a Q&A resource thread)

Ahhhh.......yes. I am butchered in the manner of the yiddishes, but it has been a blessing to me all of my life not to get folds of skin zipped up in Levis....and then being unable to UNzip. Once was enough.

The Protocols of Zion. Pah. A forgery of the worst kind. A believable one.

I'd been meaning to relay a tidbit about that.
This seems like the appropriate moment.
Lipshitz was touched by your words (bolded above)

"I never thought I'd meet an American Baptist to refute that packet of lies.
Tell him I have softened, and wish him long life and health. I have had my life,
thanks to the Baptists who adopted me in Bremerhaven; a ruse, as their son.

"My parents gave me... the Baptist's boy had just died...same chestnut hair, green eyes... they and I removed instantly to a small place elsewhere... and my true self was unknown to all others...my family was lost to me... Mother explained why...these Baptists did not force me to denounce my race...I have yet, the Lewis book...the one thing I saved...my blood died in Germany...I cannot speak more now."
