The Mission of Religious Tolerance
Christian intolerance towards the Jews of Huxley
Jewish organizations, as expected, come to the defense of the Jewish community of Huxley, as Christian leaders attempt to ban their prayer event. But what would Jewish organizations do in the reverse situation?

The Cardinal of Orwellia, bishops of “True Path of Faith”, and local Orwellian priests launched a campaign against an annual Jewish prayer gathering organized by the local Jewish ultra-Orthodox outreach organization “Gates of Heaven”, scheduled to take place in the town of Huxley during Sukkot. Church officials urged the town councilmen to bar this Jewish assault on the God fearing community of Huxley, protesting the attempt to use this prayer gathering as a launching point for a religious outreach campaign aimed at replenishing the dwindling Jewish numbers by capturing innocent Christian souls away from the Church, and advancing Christian acceptance of the Seven Noahide Laws as a means of hastening the coming of the Jewish Messiah. The priests stressed that what makes this more objectionable is that it comes from a faith group known for its betrayal of God, greed and distasteful pagan practices.
Worldwide Jewish protest swiftly erupted. As could be expected, Jewish religious and communal leaders expressed their outrage and demanded that this extreme anti-Jewish expression and the illegal attempt to interfere with the free exercise of religion should be squelched. Further, they demanded that those responsible for this hate speech, as high ranking as they may be, should be rebuked, preferably removed from their positions and be charged.

Many, if not all, who read the above probably feel personally and humanly offended by it, whether they are Jews or non-Jews. As may be expected, the Orthodox Union, Anti-Defamation League, Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations, Rabbinic Council of America and other representatives of the Jewish community have risen to defend the Jewish “Gates of Heaven” organization with threats of legal action against the Cardinal of Orwellia and the “True Path of Faith” organization for infringing on the Jewish group’s free exercise of religion.
