As I noted in an earlier post, some two-thirds of all children born in Russia are born to religiously-observant families… Rav Berel Lazar, the Chief Rabbi  of Russia, has ELEVEN children. If it’s a matter of reproduction alone… traditional families own the future. By the way, the “religion” of choice is redolent of TRADITION… it’s not SVS Renovationism or Vatican II frou-frou or Reform Judaism… it’s down-the-line “old time religion”. Yes, siree, do give me that ol’ time religion… the Church was good enough for Paul and Silas… it’s good enough for me! We WERE here first, after all…
