Just when I was starting to think the Jews were the most sensible of
the Abrahamic religions, they think it's acceptable to stop people of
other faiths buying bread! Oh the horror! buying bread? God will surely
smite you
See http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3691416,00.html for details
Admitadly, there is some light of reason here. Last year Judge Tamar Bar-Asher Zaban ruled that it was legal to sell bread during passover, it's only the ultra-Orthodox
community's "Court of Justice" and the "Committee for Sanctity of
Shabbat in Jerusalem" that are decrying the freedom to buy basic
foodstuffs.
This is typical of religious thought, "YOU
can't do this thing, because it infringes on MY rights". I just can't
understand how they don't see that preventing someone from buying food
impinges on other people's rights.
