There’s like 3 dozen angles to why your shiksa wife and kids shouldn’t be saying brachot. It’s more of a fact based gish gallop than moving the goal posts.
And yes Rabbi’s as the stewards of Judaism get to make the call what’s authentically Jewish and what’s not. That you’re unaware of these basic tenets of your culture and heritage is pretty fucking weird.
As I said above, you’re welcome to keep larp’ing as a Jewish family but you’re just lying to yourself and others. You seem to be really offended by this fact, maybe seeking counsel from a rabbi would help you with your conflicted emotions.
your shiksa wife and kids
Wow. Didn’t take long for your bigotry to come out, did it?
That you think that’s a bigoted term just reinforces your complete lack of understanding of your culture and the language that is at the root of it. Your wife and children are Gentiles, you’re pretending they’re Jewish. Shiksa is 100% the appropriate term, even if your parents used it derogatorily in your household.
Even if I’m insulting them with a bigoted term, based on this conversation it’s fucking deserved LoL. People larp’ing as another religion as the lowest of the low.
I’m not pretending they’re Jewish, that’s a lie. I specifically said the opposite. And ‘shiksa’ is a bigoted word. You are a bigot and a liar.
