“Moses Smashing the Tablets of the Law” by Rembrandt (1659) |
What if you’re a Jewish fellow who wants to meet shiksas. Go
to ChristianMingle.com and “Find God’s Match for You"—only don’t let her know
that that your name is Shapiro, Cohen, Levy or Horowitz. You don’t want to go
to ChristianMingle.com with a name like Hy or Shlomo or Abe even if your last
name happens to be Rothchild. Or let’s say you’re a gal and you happen to have
been born with the name Hadassah which is not only the Hebrew for Esther, but
the name of a famous organization of Jewish women. You might not find yourself
meeting "God’s Match forYou" on Christian Mingle.com, especially if you haven’t
had a rhinoplasty. On the other hand you’re probably going to mingle better on
ChristianMingle with a name like Yehudah HaLevi than Mahmoud Abbas or Benjamin Netanyahu. But let’s take the case of a nice Jewish boy by the name of
Schmulka Bernstein, whose name once blessed the now defunct Lower East Side deli, and who wants to get on Christian Mingle.com so he can marry
into a blue blooded WASP family and send his kids to private schools whose name
begins with Saint. The Schmulka Bernsteins of the world, can easily find God’s match for them on
ChristianMingle.com if they go to a speech therapist (to stop talking a mile a
minute), a plastic surgeon (who will raise their cheekbones), a hair stylist
(who will change the curly dark hair to straight blond) and a lawyer (who
specializes in identity theft and will sell them the person of someone with a surname like Knickerbocker and a first name like Will and introduce them to a trainer who will
teach them to fish and hunt). They should also take the salamis out of their windows and stop sleeping with pieces of liver. Will Knickerbocker will thrive on ChristianMingle,
with his flies and crossbow, even if he was brought up to be a Yeshiva bucher who was warned against the dangers of assimilation.
