Two New York agencies are trying to resolve a complaint that says female-only hours catering to Hasidic women in Brooklyn violate a city law.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I expressed my opinion about this municipal pool nonsense a short while ago<\/a>. I’m no less angry reading the follow-up story from the New York Times.<\/p>\n

This business is such an egregious violation of the separation of church–synagogue, in this case–and state. A municipal pool, paid for by our city government, i.e., my and your taxes, can’t, absolutely can’t ever,<\/em> bar you and me from its use to give special consideration to a religious sect. Which could and should build its own damn pool.<\/p>\n

Worse, for me, it’s an egregious violation of the fundamentalist god principle: separation of men and women by pretending women are getting special elevated treatment when in reality Orthodox Judaism acts always in suppression of women’s civil rights.<\/p>\n

And, in this case, stretches its arms way out to suppress the civil rights of everyone<\/em> who isn’t Orthodox and female.<\/p>\n

I am so pissed off. (You figured that out, didn’t you?)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
